Orion Star 2 Personal Care Home sits in a quiet part of Atlanta, right in the center of the city with easy access to parks, shops, restaurants, and different entertainment spots, so folks living there can stay connected with the community if they want. The place serves as a personal care home, offering assisted living, board and care home services, and respite care, which means people can get help whether they're staying long term or just for a short while. Orion Star 2 makes sure there's always staff around-there's 24-hour awake staff, nurses on hand, a doctor on call, and caregivers who help with daily needs like bathing, eating, grooming, and moving around. Residents can use features like wheelchair accessible showers, private baths, and furnished rooms with easy access to the outdoors, walking paths, and gardens-there are outdoor common areas, too.
The Orion Star 2 Memory Care program looks after folks with Alzheimer's or dementia, focusing on improving life for residents and supporting their families. They've got a special separate building for memory care, security systems like wander alert bracelets and computerized alerts for safety, and a staff who knows how to help with challenging behaviors or wandering. The team provides medication management, diabetic care, behavioral support, incontinence care, and can assist with non-ambulatory needs like mechanical lifts. Visiting nurses and therapists-including physical, occupational, podiatry, and speech specialists-come regularly to help.
Meals get served in a dining room with all-day dining options, and the staff offers special meals for residents with allergies, diabetes, or dietary preferences like kosher or vegetarian. There's laundry and housekeeping, plus transportation for appointments or shopping, and parking available for residents and guests. Orion Star 2 runs regular activities like movie nights, creative arts classes, shopping trips, devotional services off-site, clubs, and social dining to help people stay busy and feel at home. There are reminders to help residents keep up with meals, activities, and daily routines, and the higher staff-to-resident ratio means people can get more personal care. Each resident has a care plan that can change as their needs change, so even if someone needs more support later on, they can usually stay in the same community. The staff welcomes everyone, works hard to make people comfortable, and pays attention to both physical and emotional needs, so residents can live as fully as possible.
