Personal care in Jefferson
Jefferson is home to Jackson County's courthouse complex, and that is where you will find the Jackson County Senior Center, on Stan Evans Drive. It is open to county residents 60 and older, or a member's spouse, with a daily lunch, exercise classes and rides on established routes, and it delivers meals to seniors who are homebound, 706-367-5101. Jackson County is not in the Atlanta Regional Commission's area. Its Area Agency on Aging is the Northeast Georgia Regional Commission, and the Aging and Disability Resource Connection in Athens, 1-800-474-7540, can explain in-home services and caregiver programs.

Highlands Senior Living runs seven communities across Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina, including this one at 50 Sumner Way in Jefferson. They offer assisted living, personal care and a secured memory care setting, plus home care through Highlands Home Helpers. Staff are on site around the clock, and the company runs a daily vitals monitoring program called Vital Connect that flags readings outside a resident's usual range.
What it costs here
Not enough communities in Jefferson publish a starting price for a median to mean anything yet — it takes 5. We’d rather say that than average two numbers and call it a market rate.
