Cumming is a city people move to and then never leave. They buy in Vickery or Windermere, raise their kids in Forsyth County schools, and twenty years later the house is quiet and the county has grown up around them. Castleton provides private-pay home care across Cumming, so the seniors who built their lives here can keep living in the homes they love. A steady W-2 caregiver, a small consistent team, RN oversight on every plan, and 24/7 on-call support for your family.
Many of our Cumming clients live alone in a house they've owned for decades. About one in five Cumming households includes someone over 65 living on their own, one of the highest rates in metro Atlanta. That's a lot of independence worth protecting. Families choose Castleton because we're locally owned and our caregivers are W-2 employees, not contractors. Your loved one gets a small, consistent team of familiar faces, every plan runs under RN oversight, and there's 24/7 on-call support when something can't wait until morning. We also coordinate around discharges from Northside Hospital Forsyth, so the first days home aren't left to chance.
17.5% of Cumming residents are age 65 or older.
22% of Cumming households include a resident age 65 or older living alone, among the highest rates in metro Atlanta.
The signs are usually small before they're big: the fridge getting emptier, laundry piling up, a new dent in the car, or your mom brushing off a stumble she "doesn't remember." If you're driving to Cumming more often just to check in, that's information too. A good first step is an honest conversation about what's getting harder, and we're glad to talk through what we see in homes like your parent's.
Call us as soon as you have a discharge date. We prioritize discharges and will tell you honestly what we can cover and when, with the caregiver briefed on the discharge instructions so the first night home is handled.
Yes, transportation is part of what we do. Doctor visits, follow-up appointments, grocery runs, and trips to Forsyth County Senior Services programs. Your caregiver can stay through the appointment when that's helpful.
Absolutely. Plenty of our clients love the lunches, fitness classes, and day trips at Sexton Hall and Central Park but stopped going when driving got harder. A caregiver can drive your dad there, stay or come back for pickup, and help him keep the routine that keeps him connected.
Yes. We serve Cumming and the surrounding Forsyth County communities, including the lake-area neighborhoods. If you're not sure your parent's address is in our service area, call us and we'll tell you straight.
