The Neighborhood at Vestavia Hills in Birmingham, AL, has independent and assisted living. Memory care and respite care are included on the same list. Independent living means having a personal residence with nearby community services, and there is no daily care from others. Assisted living adds practical support with daily activities.
Supervision is included with memory care, and the environment is secured. A family can arrange for respite, a short-term stay, during the period when the usual caregiver is away or recuperating.
Since all four levels are part of the same community, an individual whose needs increase can remain in place rather than looking for another location. There are 77 beds, and the rooms are studios, with each serving as a private space. Pets can move in with their owners.
Errands involve a car or a ride, as a Walk Score of 31 indicates a car-dependent area. Barbara Chatman is the administrator.
