Assisted Living, Memory Care & Respite Care · Smyrna, GA

Overview of The Cambridge

The Cambridge offers assisted living, memory care, and respite care in Smyrna, Georgia. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication while a resident keeps a private living space. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering.

Respite care is available for short stays, which can give a family caregiver time to travel or recover. The combination of assisted living and memory care can suit a resident whose needs may grow over time, while respite care can support a temporary change in a family’s usual care arrangement. With 129 beds, the community is administered by Perry Njiraini-Jacobs, and staff are available around the clock so residents can reach someone at any hour.

Chef-prepared meals are served in a restaurant-style setting with attention to dietary needs, allowing residents to receive prepared food within the community while specific needs are considered. Residents also have access to an on-site salon, barber shop, and spa, as well as activities and events, rehabilitation services, and transportation services. A Walk Score of 68 places the area in the somewhat walkable band, meaning some errands can be completed on foot and a resident who no longer drives may be able to make certain nearby trips independently.
