The program offers safe, engaging environments for participants and respite for caregivers. Both sites provide medical monitoring, nutritious meals, therapeutic activities, physical and occupational therapy, and personal care services. Our nursing staff monitor general health, administer medications, arrange doctor appointments, monitor blood glucose levels and act as a liaison and advocate for the participant and family members within the health care community.
A light breakfast and delicious and nutritious lunch are served each day, and modified meals are available to accommodate participants with diabetes, high blood pressure, swallowing difficulties and other medical conditions. Our staff are fully trained to assist individuals who are no longer able to eat independently. Our centers offer a stimulating social environment with planned, age appropriate, therapeutic activities focused on maintaining and improving physical, social, mental, emotional and spiritual functioning.
Activities include daily exercise, brainteasers, arts and crafts, discussion groups, music, Bingo, special events, and group outings. Physical, Speech, and Occupational Therapy are offered on-site, five days a week through a partnership with Genesis Rehab Services.
Our trained program staff offer assistance with personal care services such as toileting, oral hygiene, grooming, and skin and nail care. Both the Athens and Winder sites have accessible tubs and showers, and staff are available to assist with bathing.
Staffing: Our staff is trained, compassionate, patient, calm, and alert. Regular staff in-service trainings ensure the staff continue to update their knowledge and skills. All services provided are conducted under the supervision of licensed Registered Nurses. Activities are supervised and coordinated by an Activities Director. Funding sources are also available through private long-term care insurance and are determined on an individual basis. Eden at Home helps to improve the quality of life for older adults by promoting a culture of meaningful care in our communities and by advocating for the well-being of the whole care partnership.
