Morning Pointe Of Athens Management Team
Morning Pointe of Athens Assisted Living recently achieved a deficiency-free health licensure survey. Senior health care communities must undergo unannounced state inspections yearly. The health licensure survey addresses aspects of care from proper medication to nutrition, hygiene to proper record keeping, staffing to resident and family feedback. Surveyors not only observe care but also conduct interviews.
“I am so proud of our team for achieving this deficiency-free survey,” said Crystal Sutton, executive
director at the community. “Each resident, and their family, is special to us, and we strive every day to not only meet the requirements of the state but also to be a true caring family for our residents. We love them and their families, and we always want to provide the best for them.”
Located at 1025 Crestway Drive, Morning Pointe of Athens offers assisted living services with 24/7
access to clinical care. Meals are served with dietician oversight in a restaurant-style setting and with an emphasis on fresh, local produce. Residents also enjoy a full life enrichment activity program, including regular outings, service projects, intergenerational programming and engaging community partnerships. Physical, occupational and speech therapy services are also available on-site.
Rob Pollard, senior vice president of operations for Morning Pointe Senior Living, added, “Achieving
these survey results speaks volumes to the community about the emphasis we place on quality. Well
done, team Athens.”
