A residential care home in Lawrenceville, GA

A small home, where your parent is
known by name

Just 8 residents, in a real house on a real street, with staff on site around the clock. Small enough that we notice when someone has had a bad night — and tell you before you have to ask.

The difference

Care at the scale of a family, not an institution

A large community can be excellent. It is also, unavoidably, large: shift rotas, agency cover, a new face on a Tuesday. We built the opposite of that.

  • Never more than 8 residents, so staff know each person's habits, not just their chart
  • A single-level house with a garden, a porch and a kitchen you are welcome in
  • Awake, on-site staff overnight — not an on-call number
  • One person who calls you, by name, when something changes — before you have to chase it
  • Meals cooked here, adjusted to what each person can and will eat
  • The same home through the end of life, working alongside hospice

Care

What we do, said plainly

Personal care, medication, meals, mobility, and the coordination that families usually end up doing themselves.

  • Help with daily living

    Bathing, dressing, grooming and toileting, given unhurriedly and with the door closed. Dignity is mostly a matter of not rushing someone, and of the same person helping them each week.

  • Medication management

    Ordered, organised and given on time, by staff who know what each resident takes and why. We coordinate refills with your pharmacy so nobody runs out on a Sunday.

  • Staff on site, twenty-four hours

    Someone is awake and in the house through the night. Help at three in the morning is the same help as at three in the afternoon, which is not true of every arrangement families consider.

  • Three meals a day, cooked here

    Real cooking in a real kitchen, plus snacks, with diabetic, low-sodium and modified-texture diets handled as a matter of course. Coffee the way each person takes it.

  • Mobility and transfer assistance

    Walkers, wheelchairs, transfer support and fall prevention. The house is single-level living with grab bars and clear paths, which prevents more falls than any alarm does.

  • Coordination with your doctors

    We work alongside the physicians, home health providers, therapists and hospice teams your family already trusts, and we keep one family member properly informed rather than everyone vaguely so.

Everything we help withMemory care

A day here

What an ordinary Tuesday looks like

Not a programme of activities. A day, at the pace of the people living it.

  1. Morning

    Breakfast cooked in the kitchen here, not trucked in and reheated. Help with a shower and dressing, taken slowly. Then stretching in the living room, a walk to the porch, or simply the paper and quiet.

  2. Midday

    Lunch at a shared table, which is as much about the conversation as the food. Medications with the meal, from someone who already knows the list.

  3. Afternoon

    Cards, a craft, music, the garden, or a nap in a favourite chair. Visitors come and go. Nothing is scheduled for the sake of looking busy.

  4. Evening and night

    Dinner, then the house settles. Someone is awake and on site the whole night, so a bad night is met by a familiar face rather than a call button.

The home

A house on an ordinary street

Near the Mall of Georgia, in Lawrenceville, GA. 6 private suites and 1 shared, a living room people actually sit in, and a garden that gets used.

Bring the armchair. Bring the photographs, the quilt, the radio that has to be on at six. A room only becomes somebody's room when their own things are in it, and we would rather help you carry furniture than hand you a list of what is not allowed.

Your Director

Owner and Executive Director

Replace this with a short, plain account of who runs the home: how they came to this work, how long they have done it, and what they want a family to feel on the first visit. Two or three sentences in their own words will do more than a page of polish.

About the home

Questions

The things families ask us first

Including the ones people apologise for asking. None of them need an apology.

All questions
What is a residential care home, and how is it different from a large facility?

A residential care home is an ordinary house, in an ordinary neighbourhood, where a small number of older adults live and receive help with daily life. We have room for 8 residents. A large community counts its residents in the hundreds and one aide may cover an entire floor. Here, the same few faces greet your parent every morning, and a change in how they are doing gets noticed the same day rather than the next month.

Does a smaller home mean less care?

It is a fair question, and the honest answer is that small is not the same as less. There is staff on site around the clock, medications are managed by people who know each resident, and help is available at every hour. What a large building adds is not more care per person. It is more residents per caregiver.

How do I know when it is time?

The signs are rarely loud. A stack of unopened mail. The same story twice in ten minutes. A new unsteadiness on the stairs, a pan left on the heat, weight quietly coming off. Most families tell us they wondered for months before they called. If you are asking the question, it is usually worth a conversation, and a conversation costs you nothing.

Do you offer memory care?

Yes, within the same home, at the same small scale and with the same familiar faces. For someone living with dementia, familiarity does more work than almost anything else, and a small house is an advantage rather than a compromise. We can talk honestly about whether this is the right level of care for your parent.

What does it cost?

Cost depends on the room and the level of help someone needs, so the honest answer is a short conversation rather than a number on a page. Nobody gets talked into anything on a phone call. We will tell you the figure, tell you what it does and does not include, and let you go away and think.
