Community Care Home IV, found at 190 Taylor Road in Jackson, Georgia, sits in a quiet spot with tree-lined paths and a safe, keyless entry system, holding just four assisted living apartments so everyone tends to know each other and the staff can focus on each person. The apartments come in simple studio and single-bedroom layouts, all furnished, and have safety features like non-slip floors, emergency alerts, and kitchenettes, as well as washers and dryers, with some options for sharing or privacy depending on what's needed. Residents get as much help as needed with dressing, bathing, meals, moving around, medication, and housework, and trained staff, including nurses, are always on hand 24 hours a day. The facility provides both assisted living and memory care, so people needing extra attention for dementia or Alzheimer's can stay in a familiar place when their needs change, and people with Parkinson's or other chronic conditions receive special help, too.
There's a strong focus on health and safety, and regular visits from doctors and nurses are part of the routine, along with medication management, health checkups, and coordination for outside medical care when required. The facility offers physical and occupational therapy onsite, and diets are tailored for diabetes or allergies, with dining assistance available whenever someone needs it, and a chef prepares meals served in a bright dining room with a separate private area if preferred, plus snacks through the day and options like pureed meals and soft foods for those who need them. For those who enjoy activities, there are scheduled exercise classes, arts and crafts, group games, movie nights in the theater room with big TVs, social clubs, regular outings, and birthday parties, so it's hard to feel lonely. The grounds have walking trails, porches, gardens, and outdoor decks, so residents can sit outside and enjoy some fresh air whenever they like, and the physical spaces like the library, computer station, game room, and wellness center give places to spend time with others or quietly alone.
Household chores like laundry and cleaning, bed making, and linen changes get handled by the staff, leaving more time for activities and visits. Transportation is available for doctor's appointments and other scheduled trips, and there's plenty of parking for visitors. When extra help is needed, whether it's with feeding, taking a shower, transfers, or just a bit of encouragement, staff are trained to give gentle and respectful support, and the facility even has special programs for falls management, community housing, and concierge services to help with the move or daily needs. Memory care includes specialized units, activities designed to keep the mind active, and secure spaces to prevent wandering, and there's a focus on keeping both residents and their families informed and supported, including family meetings and care plan updates.
There's free Wi-Fi, phone access in each unit, and entertainment options like daily social and education programs, while the on-site salon offers hair and grooming services for people who wish to keep up with personal care. Small size and regular staff presence help create a home-like, safe, and loving environment, and the rates start at $3,174 per month, with options for short stays when primary caregivers need a break. Being part of Community Care Home, Inc.-and holding CARF accreditation-adds an extra layer of oversight and access to resources, and all these pieces come together to help seniors stay active, supported, and as independent as possible in a small, friendly community.
