Why Choose Front Porch of Bowdon Senior Living?

A Note From the Owner

I began my career in service as a Peace Corps volunteer in community health. I later became a registered nurse and spent nearly a decade caring for patients in the ICU and ER at Emory.

In the hospital, I often met families during their most difficult moments. What I saw repeatedly was this: people needed more than medical treatment. They needed consistent, compassionate, daily support in a safe environment.

That is why I chose to lead Front Porch of Bowdon.

Here, we are small enough to know our residents personally and accountable enough to respond quickly when something changes. I stay involved in our community because I believe leadership should be present, not distant.

Our mission is simple:

Make life better for residents and the staff who care for them.

We invest in our caregivers because supported staff provide better, more attentive care. That directly impacts your loved one’s safety, dignity, and quality of life.

If you are considering assisted living, I invite you to visit, meet our team, and see the difference for yourself.

Call us at (770) 258-8600 to schedule a tour.

It would be our privilege to care for your family.

Flat Rate

Full Service

At many senior living communities, what seems like an affordable rate can quickly escalate. With “level of care” pricing, residents are often charged extra for each individual service — turning a manageable bill into something two or three times higher than expected.

At Front Porch of Bowdon, we believe in a different approach. One built on trust, transparency, and compassion. Our all-inclusive pricing means everything is covered — personal care, delicious meals, and essential utilities — all for one consistent monthly rate.

No hidden fees. No surprises. Just genuine peace of mind for you and your family.

Happy Holidays

What is the layout of your rooms?2025-09-30T14:34:56-04:00

All of our rooms are studio single room apartments. We do not offer one, two, or three bedroom accommodations at this time. Our rooms range from 200-400 square feet, and feature either shared or private bathrooms.

What is respite care?2022-11-23T14:40:39-05:00

Caring for someone with health issues, mobility issues, or memory issues can be incredibly taxing on family and other caregivers. It’s emotionally and physically exhausting, and sometimes caregivers need a break. There is no shame in needing rest and alone time. Sometimes caregivers need to travel out of town and are unable to take their loved one with them. Respite care offers support for those caregivers. Respite Care residents are able to stay with us from 1-14 days while their caregivers attend to other responsibilities, or simply get a break. While in respite care, their family member will be cared for just like any of our other residents. All care and meals will be provided, and the health and safety of their family member will be ensured.

What does it mean that you are a “for benefit” company?2022-11-23T14:31:29-05:00

As with LLCs and For-Profit Corporations, Benefit Corporations are a type of legal structure for businesses. Benefit corporations have been growing in popularity around the country for a number of years. For benefit corporations have been in existence in some states for over a decade, and Georgia enacted legislation in January of 2021 that allowed for the creation of Benefit Corporations. Basically, in addition to making a reasonable profit, Benefit Corporations are able to look beyond the bottom line and focus on activities that don’t necessarily maximize financial profit, but are important for the health and wellbeing of people and the planet. It hard-codes ethical considerations into a company’s legal structure. Each Benefit Corporation can define their own mission and societal benefit. Front Porch of Bowdon is dedicated to pursuing activities that support improved care for seniors and those who care for them.

What services does the community provide?2022-11-23T14:24:02-05:00

We offer all-inclusive assisted living/personal care and dementia care services, as well as respite care services billed at a daily rate. All utilities and meals are included. Residents are only responsible for room furnishings, unless a furnished room is arranged, any personal belongings, medications, medical equipment, and any consumable medical supplies (e.x. depends/briefs/diapers, bed pad/chucks, etc).

Do you take Medicaid?2022-11-23T14:19:44-05:00

While we would love to be able to assist every elder who wants to live in our community, we are unfortunately unable to accept Medicaid payments at this time and are strictly a private pay community. We hope to expand our offerings in the future.

Do you accept insurance?2022-11-23T14:17:51-05:00

We accept a limited number of insurance payments. Primarily those with private Long-term Care Insurance, and residents receiving Veterans Administration benefits. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept Medicaid payments at this time.

Do you offer medication management?2025-09-30T14:22:01-04:00

Yes! We provide assistance with medications. Our trained caregivers assist residents in taking their daily medications. We can even assist with insulin shots. We cannot provide assistance with any IV or IM medications.
