Overview of Summerset Assisted Living

A 24-bed memory care and assisted living community offering respite care in south Atlanta is Summerset Assisted Living. It’s housed in a three-story building with suite-style rooms spanning 260 to 399 square feet, built to handle occupants and family visitors. Over six years of operation, the facility has developed routines and programs intentionally tailored to residents at different care levels.

To create a warm, welcoming atmosphere, the home architecture blends modern and traditional design. Summerset Assisted Living honors a resident’s individuality through Helping Hands and Tender Loving Care programs, ensuring dignified, person-centered care. Outdoors, occupants enjoy courtyards, gardens, walking paths, a fountain, a goldfish pond, and flowering landscaping. Pets are welcome, and the home provides transportation services and on-site fitness and recreation activities to bolster daily engagement. It delivers specialized memory care with trained staff and higher caregiver ratios for occupants with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia. The assisted living program provides 24/7 staff and personalized care plans that bolster independence with medication, bathing, dressing, and meal assistance. Respite care exists for families needing short-term placement when transitioning. The neighborhood in Fulton County, Georgia, is car-dependent (Walk Score 20), so most errands and family visits involve driving.

No deficiencies, complaint investigations, or enforcement actions documented have been found by the facility’s initial licensing inspection.

Those looking for a calmer atmosphere can be attracted by the quieter residential setting.
