Just as people have different care needs, living communities vary in scope and offerings. Each provides different amenities and levels of support. When considering the type of living arrangement needed for an aging family member, know the difference between independent and assisted living.

• Independent living communities focus on the social needs of residents who are active and require little or no support with daily living. For seniors who are looking for a retirement community - or who would still like to live on their own among people their own age - independent living is the way to go. It provides freedom and flexibility with added perks to make life easier and more enjoyable.
• Assisted living communities support those who need assistance with daily living activities while allowing as much independence as possible. Assisted living ensures around-the-clock caregiver presence and a maintenance-free lifestyle, including everything from health care to personal care.
• Memory care is for that next step of life. Whether you or your partner require it, The Birches on Maple is committed to ensuring all residents a first-choice when it comes to memory care options.

If your loved one is struggling with things like showering, hygiene, mobility, medication management, and eating alone, assisted living is a great option. If their physician thinks they need a higher level of care, we can help your loved one as well. Assisted living at The Birches is all about comfort, safety, engagement and privacy. With all the resources of a regional health system available 24/7, no other senior living option in metro Atlanta offers a fully integrated approach to wellness like you'll find here. Our mission is to assure your loved one is healthy and happy for years to come.
