Benton House of Douglasville offers both Assisted Living and Memory Care, allowing residents to move between support levels without leaving the community. Short-term respite stays are available for those recovering from illness or giving family caregivers a break, and the staff is trained to manage diabetes care. A visiting physician oversees medical needs, and on-site speech therapy supports residents with communication or swallowing challenges. These core services form the foundation of daily clinical oversight.
Additional health safeguards include a 24-hour emergency call system, a full sprinkler system, and a secured perimeter for residents who may wander. Licensed nurses are on site, supported by occupational and physical therapists, a podiatrist, and a dentist. The team coordinates medication management, incontinence care, ambulatory assistance, and hospice support when required. Care areas are specifically designed to meet the needs of residents with memory loss, and routine laundry and dry-cleaning services help maintain hygiene standards.
Apartments range from studio and efficiency layouts to larger units, each air-conditioned and designed with wheelchair-accessible showers; some also come with private patios, balconies, decks, or in-unit washers and dryers. Basic utilities and cable television are included, and housekeeping is provided. A central fireplace, landscaped grounds, outdoor gardens, and several seating areas encourage residents to spend time outside or socialize indoors. While cats are welcome, not every accommodation has pet-friendly features, and other amenities—such as direct parking access or a private outdoor space—vary by unit.
Dining is flexible, with restaurant-style table service, all-day and anytime options, and room service for those who prefer to eat in their apartment. Menus can be adjusted to meet low-sodium or no-sugar dietary plans, and regularly scheduled barbecues and picnics take advantage of the outdoor spaces. Three meals are provided daily, with snacks available between seatings to support residents who need smaller or more frequent portions.
Residents can stay active through an on-site activity center, a movie and theater room, and both indoor and outdoor walking paths. Live Well fitness programs, stretching classes, and a swimming pool promote physical health, while clubs, social outings, and community service projects foster engagement. The library and computer lounge, arts and crafts studio, birthday celebrations, happy hours, and occasional wine tastings round out the calendar, ensuring residents have multiple ways to connect with neighbors and pursue personal interests.
