Rose's Premier Personal Care Home sits in Riverdale, Georgia, and has served seniors since March 2012, offering care in a small, home-like setting with only 5 licensed beds, so people can feel comfortable and well-attended to, which a lot of folks like since it doesn't feel crowded. People live in private rooms with on-site bathrooms, and the staff-led by the owner, Lorna Dricketts, who has over 15 years of healthcare experience-help with personal care like bathing, dressing, medication management, and even incontinence care, and they do this 24 hours a day, which means help is always close by. The home lets seniors pick from different types of living like single-family residential houses or apartment-style rooms, and folks can bring their own furniture to make it feel more like home. The meals are prepared fresh, one or two a day, and there are vegetarian options if someone needs them, plus laundry and housekeeping services keep things tidy.
There's a focus on memory care, assisted living, and independent living options, plus respite or short-term stays for those who need a break or help for just a little while, with care plans made for each person's needs, and the staff work to keep everyone as independent as possible, helping only as much as each person really needs. The common areas are both indoors and outdoors, and there are spots set aside for relaxation and activities, so people can spend time together, and a full schedule of social, educational, and entertaining activities encourages residents to make friends and stay busy, and there's both on-site and off-site devotional services for those who want them. People who need special healthcare like physical, occupational, or speech therapy, or access to a podiatrist or dentist, can get those services brought in, and nurses and doctors are available on call if anything comes up. Folks can also choose their own doctors, pharmacies, and medical centers, which gives some peace of mind.
The home can take both men and women, and staff help get everyone to medical appointments with complimentary transportation when needed. Rose's Premier PCH is a licensed personal care home, also known as a board and care home, and it's regulated by Georgia state authorities, with special focus on safety, health, and keeping the environment homelike and secure. The rooms and showers are wheelchair accessible, and a beautician comes by for hair care and grooming. For those that need it, there's non-ambulatory care, medication help, and memory care, and the owner encourages families to get involved, so people can stay connected with loved ones. The staff gets training to make sure they can provide compassionate and respectful support, and the home's small size means residents often get more one-on-one attention. The community stays clean and organized and tries to meet different needs with a variety of amenities and programs, aiming to keep each person healthy, active, and content.
Rose's Premier PCH doesn't accept Medicare unless the home becomes certified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, and services are offered all-inclusive or with additional fees, depending on what a resident needs. The home tries to make things simple and comfortable, welcoming new people to join in the daily routines, meals, hobbies, and social times the community enjoys.
