Atria Park of Tucker sits in Tucker, Georgia, under tall Georgia pines, and the place tends to have a quiet but busy feel with Southern charm, comfort, and a brick building that shows easy-to-see white columns and wide windows. Residents can pick from studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom apartments, each with soft carpeting, kitchenettes, walk-in closets, private bathrooms, and controls for their own heating or air, and those apartments come with their utilities, cable TV, housekeeping, and linen services. People can get various kinds of help here, from independent living, to assisted living, memory care for folks who need it, and some home care right on the property. Atria Park of Tucker holds a license as a personal care home (PCH), with the number PCH008271. The staff are trained to give different levels of care, depending on what each person needs-they offer reminders and help with grooming, bathing, toileting, and medication, and support includes things like mobility assistance, two-person transfers, use of lifts, and help for those with incontinence, though folks do need to handle their incontinence supplies themselves.
Memory care has its own secured area for those living with Alzheimer's or other types of dementia, and there's special technology using bracelets to keep residents from wandering out, plus extra staff to manage people who might get upset or act out, so people who need a safe, gentle setting can get it here. Medical support includes regular visits from a nurse, RNs and LPNs on site, and outside professionals like dentists, podiatrists, therapists, and others dropping by as needed. Residents who need rehabilitation or skilled nursing get that care on-site, and there's an on-site wellness center for minor health issues, as well as physical, occupational, and speech therapy. Staff can help manage medications and blood sugar and can assist with insulin, but can't handle direct insulin shots.
The dining choices at Atria Park of Tucker lean toward variety, with fine and casual options, and chef-prepared meals are served restaurant-style three times per day, with room for special diets like no-sugar or vegan if it's wanted, and there's always the option to dine any time, or bring guests to a private dining room. There are plenty of spaces inside and outside to sit and chat, like bright living rooms with fireplaces or covered gardens, and Wi-Fi and a CyberSenior computer area let folks stay in touch or learn new skills. There's a full-time activities director, and a social calendar with about 200 events a month, so if a resident wants, they can join water volleyball, Wii bowling, bridge tournaments, outings to Gwinnett Braves games, shopping trips, art classes, yoga, happy hours, gardening, museum visits, trivia, or just relax with their pets or visit with friends in the salon. Housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance are part of the deal, so residents don't have to worry about chores. There are religious services, counseling, and regular community service projects. For transportation, people can bring their car, use the bus lines nearby, or sign up for rides to appointments or outings, and the staff arrange rides for shopping and medical visits.
The property's designed for people with wheelchairs and walkers, making it easy to get around, and the community lets people age in place, meaning they can stay even as their needs change. The community has a pet-friendly policy, so residents don't have to leave their animals behind, and there's a full-service salon, gardens, comfortable common rooms, and both indoor and outdoor spaces to gather. There's no buy-in required, and rent covers most basic services, and folks can pay with credit cards. Atria Park of Tucker has served older adults since 2008 as part of Atria Senior Living's network and aims to encourage people to join activities, eat well, and get the support they need right in the same secure place, all while staff remain available day and night.
