$40M plan for assisted living centers Atlanta-based
The Arbor Co. plans to ride the wave of aging baby boomers
with two new assisted living facilities in Roswell GA and
Decatur that will together cost at least $40 million and
add more than 200 units. Assisted living centers target
seniors who don't need the around-the-clock attention of
a nursing home but want meals, medicine management and assistance
with activities like bathing and grooming. "We're not
looking for the quantity, we're really focused on the quality
of life." in our assisted living centers.

of care means people can age in place,’’ said
