Avery Village Assisted Living and Memory Care sits in Winterville, Georgia, and offers both assisted living and memory care in a single-story, easy-to-navigate building, where the staff helps people live as independently as possible by lending a hand with things like bathing, dressing, and eating, but always tries to let each person do what they can for themselves so they can stay active and connected. The community focuses on safety, with trained staff on duty around the clock, emergency call systems, fall prevention programs, controlled access, and backup power, and for those needing special care, there's memory care set up in a way that helps prevent wandering and confusion for people with Alzheimer's or dementia, with programs like validation therapy and person-centered care, reminders, nursing oversight, and custom care plans.
Residents can pick from studio and deluxe studio apartments with private showers, safety grab bars, keyless entries, walk-in tubs, individually controlled heating and air, Wi-Fi, cable, refrigerators, window treatments, and enough closet space for personal things; some rooms are set up for companions to share. Folks can bring their pets since the community welcomes animals. The grounds have secure enclosed areas, walking paths, patios, sunrooms, gardens, and plenty of spaces for getting outdoors or taking a stroll. People can also use lounge areas for hobbies or relaxing. Inside, there are comfortable common rooms and activity spaces where daily life includes games, arts and crafts, movies, board games, live music, crosswords, bingo, and trips out to see museums, stores, parades, festivals, and car shows, or just scenic drives.
Residents take part in Meaningful Pursuits Activities, with exercise classes, art programs, outings, and gardening. There's group exercise, yoga, chair fitness, and wellness programs covering mindfulness and nutrition, guided by health and activity staff. Avery Village handles meals with a chef preparing three restaurant-style meals a day, including diabetic, vegetarian, renal, low fat, and low salt options, and snacks are available. The dining room welcomes residents for shared meals, and there's a private spot for families to gather. Caring staff, nurses, in-house physicians, podiatrists, and psychiatrists support health needs, and therapies like physical, occupational, speech, respiratory, post-acute, stroke, and psychotherapy sessions can be provided, either one-on-one or in groups. Medication supervision, companionship, reminders, health management, and hospice care are part of daily life for folks who need them. Avery Village also offers short-term respite care to give regular caregivers a break.
Everyone can take advantage of services like housekeeping, laundry, apartment maintenance, trash pickup, pest control, and groundskeeping, while staff schedules rides for doctor visits, errands, and shopping, with free scheduled transportation. There's a beauty and barber shop onsite, spiritual and religious services in the chapel, social clubs and programs, and conference space for visits or meetings. The facility is managed by Enlivant, a group known for operating senior living communities. Paying for care can be done by check, credit card, private pay, long-term care insurance, or Veterans Aid benefits, and the building doesn't require people to sign long leases. Smoking isn't allowed indoors, and there's a minimum age for residents. The community lets people decorate rooms and welcomes visits from family.
