Joanna's Place in Decatur, GA, sits at 2331 Bermuda Run Court and works closely with Joanna's Interfaith Ministries, Inc and Joanna's Place LLC, which also provide religious services on site. The facility mainly offers assisted living and memory care for older adults, with private, semi-private, and shared apartments that include private ADA compliant bathrooms, and rooms set up for comfort like many closets, decks, and porches. The capacity numbers for the community range from 3 to 6 seniors in different sections, depending on the care type and room arrangements, and the memory care program can serve up to 6 dementia sufferers at a time. Room types come at $1,500 per month for private rooms and $1,200 per month for semi-private ones.
The facility's focus is on resident safety and support, using things like alarmed exits and a monitored emergency pendant system to help prevent wandering. Safety features also include pull cords, a high caregiver-to-resident ratio, and staff members who are awake and on duty 24 hours. The place is pet friendly, offers monitoring exits for those with Alzheimer's and dementia, and gives regular doctor and nurse checkups to track health changes.
Joanna's Place has a Board and Care Home Day Program, chef-prepared meals with nutrition in mind, and snacks available throughout the day. The facility supports residents who have incontinence needs, diabetes, non-ambulatory needs, and Parkinson's. There's help with things like dressing, grooming, showering, toileting at any time, and anytime assistance for unscheduled needs. Residents get individual meal planning, access to a hair salon, massage therapy, on-site activities, custom memory care programs with brain health emphasis, puzzles, and other activities to keep residents active.
Accommodations include private and semi-private rooms, plus assisted living units under names like Classic Community Support VIII, Comfort Zone #2, Spring Creek House, and others. Each apartment offers room for independence, but support staff can step in with anything from linen and laundry service to resident wellness programs, exercise equipment, and special colors and design cues that aid residents with memory loss. The facility accepts Medicaid and Medicare in some cases and allows for both long-term stays and short-term respite care. Transportation can be complimentary or at-cost, with scheduled local trips available. For those who want, there are quiet corners, a hair salon, and massage therapy along with independent living options, skilled nursing, and healthcare services, even private laundry. Meals come from chefs and meal planners focusing on quality ingredients, while resident activities happen in indoor and outdoor community spaces.
