Lighthouse Adult Day Care
Advocates for Alzheimer’s Care, Inc. operates Lighthouse Adult Day Care, an adult day center located on Schomburg Road in Columbus, Georgia. Backed by eight years of local experience in Muscogee County, this non-profit, non-residential facility specializes exclusively in daytime supervision, memory-focused programming, and care for individuals age 18 and older navigating Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of cognitive decline.
Rather than providing open-ended day activities, the center designs its enrollment around structured cognitive stimulation and socialization. The specialized curriculum utilizes tailored therapeutic arts, music entertainment, brain-engagement games, and gentle mobility exercise alongside secure outdoor time and community milestone celebrations. Nutrient-managed meals and snacks are integrated into the daily schedule to support dietary health.
The neighborhood is car-dependent, carrying a walkability score of 23 out of 100, which means commuting families and transport services will rely on vehicles for participant drop-offs and pick-ups.
Families researching specialized daytime memory care solutions in Muscogee County can contact the Columbus office to verify baseline admission requirements and current participant openings.
