Ma Trel's sits in a quiet neighborhood at 1008 East 12th Street in West Point, Georgia, and is run by Mattie Trammell, who owns and operates the place herself. The facility is a residential care home, offering shared homes for seniors who need daily help with things like bathing, dressing, and moving around, and the staff call their services by some special names, so you might hear terms that are a little different from what other places use. The place lets in men and women, with minimum age requirements, and helps both short-term and long-term residents, offering respite care and hospice options.
Residents get nurses and licensed caregivers there 24 hours a day, plus a doctor and dentist on call, and specialists-like podiatrists and therapists-who visit onsite. The staff can help with medications, including insulin, and can do one-person assisted transfers, so folks who need extra help moving don't have to worry. The home is wheelchair accessible, with showers made for easy access, and there's no smoking allowed inside, in any area, public or private. Fresh meals come three times each day, and there are two snacks, with special diets like vegetarian and kosher if that's needed, because the kitchen staff try to prepare food the way residents prefer. There's also a beautician on hand for hair and grooming. Pets are allowed, and there's a good amount of outdoor greenery in the yard, which makes time outside nice and comfortable.
Ma Trel's keeps to a structured program, with regular clubs, social activities, faith-based services, and both indoor and outdoor shared spaces, so residents have chances to socialize and not feel cut off from others. They offer complimentary transportation for things like doctor visits or shopping, and there's parking available for residents who still drive. For those who need more help, there's physical, occupational, and speech therapy, and a nurse or doctor nearby when needed. Residents can pick private or semi-private rooms, depending on what suits them best. The atmosphere feels homelike, and because it's a smaller place, folks get to know each other and the caregivers well, which can help people feel connected. The facility has a four-star rating on one review, and even though it's a small town, the location is easy for visits and close to the Alabama border.
