Nikki H. assisted me in finding a new home for my mom in early November 2020. She took me on a virtual tour of this memory care facility and sent additional texts and videos of the resident-caregiver interactions. The facility looks clean, modern and well lit. I specifically liked that the building will allow mom to move relatively freely throughout, including open access to an inner courtyard. The rate is all inclusive, so no add on for medications or help with dressing. This was a big deal for me as some other facilities seemed to have extra charges for these. Like others, they will develop a specific care plan and have activities throughout the day to keep her active. The keep the activity groups small and like to ensure groups have similar interests or similar care levels. They stress their ability to provide 1:1 time with each resident. Sounds like the facility has 42 units and currently has 25 residents. They maintain a 1 caregiver to 6 resident ratio, which does not change at night. They also have a hydration focus, which is important for my mom. Mom likes to sleep in, and they said they were flexible with that and would ensure she had meals set aside. They noted that even though residents can have phones in their rooms, most don't do that as they have iPads and cordless phones that they make family calls with. In regards to medical, the nurse makes regular assessments of residents, a nurse practitioner comes to the site weekly and a doctor comes on site about every other month. They will of course work with your private doctor. And, they have a salon for hair and nails.
Mom is very happy there and my sisters and I are very pleased with the staff and the facility. She settled right in and enjoyed being able to walk around the facility and look at the pictures. She participates in exercise and craft activities. She is really happy with her room - it's roomy and has a nice view of the courtyard. The facility itself is well lit and nicely decorated. The staff and residents decorate for holidays. The caregiver-resident ratio is good, so she has individual care around the clock. The staff maintains a Facebook page with pictures and videos of the residents during different activities. When I call, they immediately take a phone or the iPad to her. If they can't take the call right then, they are excellent at returning the call when mom is ready. Mom has been really positive about the facility and and the staff. This is the second facility we have had her in, and Peachtree Villa is head and shoulders above the other facility. I'm happy with the level of medical oversight and they have a maintenance person on-site. I did a lot of research and looked at a lot of options. Brandy and other staff members keep me posted and up to date on any issues. They called right away when Mom had a minor fall. The staff is very good at communicating what is happening at the facility via phone, email and newsletters - and the Facebook page. I am very glad we chose Peachtree Villa!
