About Huger Mercy Living Center

ADHS lists it as offering directed care, personal care and supervisory care services, and its license carries the subtype Assisted Living Center-Directed. The property is organized into four cottages, each housing up to 12 residents in a mix of eight private and two semi-private rooms with shared kitchen and dining areas, set on five acres of landscaped, walkable grounds behind a secured, gated perimeter. The company describes its approach to dementia care as a social model of dementia-specific care, backed by ongoing staff training. The community's website also names Virginia Abel as activities program coordinator and says staff have an average tenure of over 10 years. Staff are on site around the clock, and a nurse practitioner is described as available in addition to on-staff nurses.

Ask who works at night and how long the caregivers have been there. You cannot tell that from a photo, so ask in person.
