Overview of Country Cottage – Montgomery

Choosing the perfect senior care community for your loved one can be a difficult time for the family, as well as for your budget. The cost and care carries for each individual so there are times you have to check and visit multiple communities to come up with divisions. But at Country Cottage in Montgomery, each resident is paired with a customized personal care plan called CareSteps. After an assessment by our Cottage staff, your loved one will receive a care plan that is specific to his or her individual needs. This plan is revisited every three months or with any significant change, so if your loved one moves in and becomes more independent, his or her cost for care would decrease. If he or she has a decline, the cost of care would increase with the additional staff attention your loved one would require.

Country Cottage – Montgomery offers rooms in different sizes and styles. You can be sure that they are a unique assisted living community that offers the attention, care, and home-like environment your loved one deserves. Each private room comes equipped with a private bathroom, emergency alert system, and spacious closet. Each apartment is also cable TV and telephone ready.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in Alabama

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Alabama?

Assisted living in Alabama supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

Does Alabama Medicaid cover memory care?

Alabama Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including Alabama) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How do I choose the right memory care community in Alabama?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing.
