Montgomery has earned a place in history as the location of the first capital of the Confederate States of America, its involvement in the civil rights marches from Selma and the Montgomery Bus Boycott. It is the capital of Alabama and home to numerous state agencies and colleges. Its economy also flourishes due to the presence and influence of high-tech manufacturing companies such as Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama.

The city’s population of over 201,000 makes it the second largest city in the state and the senior population represents 11.8% of the total. Many more residents are soon to be counted as seniors with the imminent retirement of so many Baby Boomers in the coming years. Those seniors looking to maintain active social lives with their peers or to take advantage of the numerous classes and assistance programs offered can turn to the Crump Senior Center, which is situated in the heart of the city for ease of access to residents. Programs and activities include exercise classes, group games, concerts, plays, daily lunches, group trips and transportation assistance.

Golden Living Center- Montgomery
2020 North Country Club Drive
Montgomery, AL 36106
(334) 263-1643

Ownership— For profit corporation

Participates in Medicare/Medicaid: Yes

Overall Rating— 3 stars out of 5

Primary concerns: The Golden Living Center nursing chain runs numerous nursing centers across multiple states. It isn’t only concerning for them to make this list, but also that this chain has appeared on lists composed in other cities and states. For profit corporations often save money by reducing staff levels and limiting investment in training programs and other important resources. There was no data available concerning this center’s staff, but if the chain’s other facilities are any indication, such data would only serve to lower this facility’s score.

One of the most common questions that our Montgomery nursing injury affiliated lawyers entertain concerning abuse and neglect is at what point they should obtain legal counsel when suspecting the mistreatment of someone they care for. We are happy to offer advice at any point and actually believe that it is better to assuage fears rather than allow someone to continue suffering. The following signs are more definitive, however, and you should definitely move toward legal action if you notice them.

• Your loved one’s environment appears dirty or you discover that your loved one’s hygienic needs are not being met.
• Your loved one develops bedsores or existing sores worsen toward later stages.
• Your loved one is admitted to the hospital and you aren’t satisfied with the explanation you are given.
• You notice physical signs of abuse or neglect such as bruises, illness, infection or unexplained weight loss.
• Your loved one begins to show sudden changes in demeanor such as rage, depression, anxiety or rapid mood swings. Another indicator is behavior that changes while in the presence of caregivers.
