Overview of Diversicare of Montgomery

At 2020 N Country Club Dr in Montgomery, Alabama, Diversicare of Montgomery runs a 138-bed skilled nursing operation in Montgomery County. The building sits in a moderately walkable pocket of the city, Walk Score 52, where some errands are doable on foot but a car still handles most of them. Right now the home has 108 residents, which works out to 78 percent occupancy.

The clinical focus here splits two ways: short-term rehabilitation for people recovering from a hospital stay, and skilled nursing for residents who need ongoing care. The average stay runs about 114 days, long enough to suggest a real mix of short rehab stints and longer-term placements rather than one or the other. Three named tracks structure the care model: Care Solutions, Short Stay Rehabilitation, and Complex Medical Care, each aimed at a different point in a resident’s recovery or health needs.

Staffing works out to roughly 3 hours and 27 minutes of nursing care per resident each day, a figure that folds together RN, LPN, and nurse aide hours. On the financial side, Diversicare of Montgomery takes Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, so families aren’t boxed into a single way of covering costs.

Alabama’s inspection process for nursing homes tends to circle back to a handful of recurring areas here: staffing and staff credentials, dietary and food service, resident rights, and general housekeeping and upkeep.

This is a mid-size skilled nursing home organized around rehabilitation and more complex medical needs, with a payment structure flexible enough to work for most families navigating nursing home costs for the first time.

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 many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 179 memory care communities in Alabama. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

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. Tour at least two or three communities in Alabama, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting memory care communities in Alabama?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered.
