2. What is Family First Assisted Living? We are Personal Care Home Developers who specialize in assisting newcomers in the assisted living business with the setup and development of their personal care home.  We completely walk you through the process of becoming a state licensed assisted living facility. Does setting up a Personal Care Home sound complicated? Well you’re right! It takes most people 5 years to figure out how to get licensed! The entire licensing process is normally extremely complicated, long, and most people give up after submitting their paperwork to the county and state 5-6 times. But there’s hope… Here at Family First, we completely erase all that guesswork and frustration for you. We don’t just tell you what is needed; we also do most of the work for you! So why would you want to turn your single family home into a Personal Care Home/Assisted Living Facility?

4. Over The Last 5 Years, Growth In The Older Population Exceeded Growth In The Total Population Georgia has the 8th fastest growing older adult population in the country. The older adult population in the Atlanta region is growing at a tremendous pace. Four counties had growth rates that exceeded 35% between 2000 and 2005. The growth in the region’s older adult population is from both in-migration and aging in place. Also, the adult population is growing because life expectancy is dramatically increased.

9. The Assisted Living Business

10. What is Assisted Living? Assisted living is a long-term care option for any person 18 years of age or older who may require assistance with daily medication and day to day activities, i.e. elderly, blind, autistic, mentally disabled adults, persons recovering from substance abuse, Alzheimer's patients, etc.  When the medical care provided by a nursing home is more than is needed, a person can opt for assisted living.  Assisted living is a combination of housing, personalized support services, and healthcare designed to provide 24 hour assistance and supervision if needed. Because each resident's needs are different, assisted living residences provide a variety of services with varying levels of assistance.

11. Services Offered At Assisted Living Facilities: Three meals a day Medication Management Housekeeping Services Transportation Assistance with Personal Care Access to Health and Medical Services Exercise and Recreation Laundry and Linen Service Social and Religious Activities

12. How Does an Assisted Living Facility Differ from a Nursing Home? Nursing homes are designed to care for very frail people that are not able to care for themselves and have numerous health care requirements. Assisted living facilities are designed to assist elderly persons who are able to care for themselves except for a few activities. Assisted living facilities are often deemed necessary when the person in question needs help preparing meals, bathing, dressing, performing household chores, is sometimes confused, or is experiencing memory problems.
