Individual Care Plans
Personal care is a hallmark of Twin Fountains Home. Each resident has an individual care plan established by a registered nurse which is reviewed weekly and revised as needed. Care plan meetings are scheduled for every Wednesday; however, we will meet with the resident and their families in person or via conference call at times that are convenient for them.
Our Staff
An average daily patient to nurse ratio of 20 to one and patient to CNA ratio of 12 to one ensures that residents receive quality care in a timely manner. This includes assistance with such everyday activities as dressing eating, mobility, hygiene and grooming (bathing, toileting, incontinence).
Physical, occupational and speech therapy services are provided through Wellstar West Georgia Medical Center and are available onsite. Vision and dental care along with psychiatric services also are available when needed. Billing is processed with the resident’s preferred carrier.
For routine care, residents are seen monthly by their attending physician. Residents may see other physicians with a consult from their attending physician. Annual flu shots, pneumonia vaccines and physicals are provided.

The Watchmate System, under continuous monitoring by staff, sounds an alert when patients begin to wander.

How Do I Get Started?
Our friendly staff provides assistance every step of the way for residents who decide to make Twin Fountains their home. Potential residents receive a referral from hospital staff, family, friend or other interested parties to begin the admissions process.An initial assessment is conducted to evaluate the resident’s needs. Results of the assessment help in creation of a written care plan. Residents eligible for Medicare receive the initial assessment and then are reassessed after five days and 14 days. Residents requiring long-term care receive quarterly assessments and can be assessed with a change in condition.
Residents receive a written statement that outlines resident rights and responsibilities upon admission. Residents also receive a detailed contractual agreement that clearly discloses healthcare, accommodations, personal care and supportive services, all fees, and admission and discharge provisions.
At Twin Fountains Home, all beds are classified as skilled and are charged at a fixed rate. We participate in Medicare, Medicaid, Medigap, long-term care and private insurance programs.
Contracts may be terminated for non-payment. Consideration of refunds and/or transfers is handled on a case by case basis. Unfortunately, there are no private or corporate programs available to help cover the costs, and Medicaid is the only government supported option.
