Our Mission

Dignity is at the Heart of Everything We Do.

Founded by Gia Anderson, our residences are built on a research-heavy playbook that solves the Georgia residency constraint. We don't just provide a bed; we provide a professionalized standard of living.

Gia Anderson · Founder & Administrator of Record

Founder Story

It started with a discharge planner and a Friday afternoon.

Gia spent years inside Georgia's licensed care system — as a caregiver, then a manager, then an administrator — watching families make the biggest decision of their parents' lives in 48 hours with almost no reliable information.

The two options families were offered both failed in predictable ways. Large communities had clinical structure but rotated staff so quickly that no one noticed the quiet decline in a resident's appetite. Small homes offered warmth, but often without documented medication passes, written care plans, or anyone accountable when a caregiver called out at 6 a.m.

Anderson Elderly Residences was built to refuse that trade. Six residents. Real bedrooms, a real kitchen, a real porch. And behind that domestic front door, the administrative machinery of a regulated healthcare operation: written plans, audited logs, trained staff, escalation paths, and a family reporting rhythm you can count on.

Gia still takes first calls herself. If your parent moves in, you will know the person accountable for their care by name and by phone number.

Our Philosophy

Three commitments we will not trade away

These are the decisions we make when they are inconvenient or expensive — which is the only time a commitment means anything.

Dignity over convenience

Residents choose when they wake, what they wear, and where they sit. Routines are built around the person, not the shift schedule.

Documentation over reassurance

We would rather hand you a log than tell you not to worry. Paper is what makes a promise verifiable.

Candor over closing

If we are not the right fit, we tell you during the tour and point you somewhere better. A wrong placement costs a family far more than an empty room costs us.

The Scalable Care Model

The playbook, in plain language

Four operating rules that let a residential-scale home hold an institutional standard.

Licensure first, growth second

Every home opens with its license, staffing plan, fire safety documentation, and training hours in place — not retroactively assembled after the first resident arrives.

The residency constraint, solved

Georgia limits how many residents a personal care home may serve. Instead of fighting that ceiling, we replicate a tightly documented six-resident model so quality scales with the number of homes, not the number of beds per home.

One administrator per file

Care plans, medication logs, incident reports, and family communication all sit with a named administrator. Nothing lives only in a caregiver's memory.

Acuity honesty

We assess before we accept. If a person's needs exceed what a personal care home may legally provide, we say so on day one and help find the right setting.

Georgia Compliance Experts

What we keep inspection-ready, year round

Georgia personal care homes are governed by DCH Chapter 111-8-62. Here is what that means practically — and what you are entitled to see.

  • Current state license and most recent inspection outcome
  • Written, individualized care plan for every resident
  • Medication administration records, audited weekly
  • Staff files: background checks, CPR, first aid, training hours
  • Fire drill and emergency preparedness logs
  • Posted resident rights and grievance procedure
