The safety and well-being of our residents are of the utmost importance. We understand that entrusting us with the care of our residents comes with a significant expectation of security and privacy and we are proactively enhancing our security measures and entry protocols to ensure we provide an environment that is not only welcoming but also aligns with the highest security standards.

As part of this commitment, we are excited to announce our partnership with Accushield, a leader in visitor and entry management for senior living communities. The introduction of the Accushield sign-in system at our community is a significant step towards strengthening the visitor security of our community.

For family members and friends visiting their loved ones, we want to assure you that the process of signing into an Accushield kiosk when you visit is quite simple and respectful of your privacy. The first time you sign in, it will take approximately one minute since you’ll be creating your account. You’ll notice that each subsequent sign in will be much quicker since you’ll already have an account. The kiosk will collect only essential information and this information will remain confidential. You will receive a name badge to wear so that everyone on the property can easily identify approved guests. When you leave, please make sure to sign out of the kiosk. This step is equally as important as signing in since it allows us to keep an accurate record of who is currently onsite. We understand the importance of your visits and have designed the system to ensure a smooth and respectful experience for our guests.

Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns you may have about these new procedures or any other aspect of our community's security measures. Together, we are committed to providing the safest and most comfortable environment for our residents.

We’re excited to introduce Craig Jones, the new Executive Director at our Cartersville community—and a familiar face within our Manor Lake family.

Before stepping into this role, Craig served as Business Office Manager at Manor Lake Ellijay, where he built strong relationships with residents, families, and team members. He brings seven years of senior living experience, including assisted living and skilled nursing, along with an Associate degree in Psychology and Local Governmental Management.

What Craig loves most about senior living is simple and powerful: loving on our seniors, watching them thrive, and making sure they receive the best care they deserve. He’s learned from residents that they’re truly young at heart—and that a good conversation goes a long way.

A few fun facts about Craig:

• His happy place is Ireland, hands down.
• He and his wife, Hannah, have been happily married for 13 years and have two children—Jameson and Gracie.
• He’s a proud dog dad to Diesel (a boxer) and Freddy (a red-nose pit).
• His favorite pastime is being with his kids and playing one (or more!) of his 29 guitars.
• Something that may surprise you: Craig has DJ’d on the side for years, played in a cover band for nearly two decades, served as a 911 dispatcher for 13 years, and was once a certified instructor at the Georgia Police Academy.

Craig believes in making residents feel at home by serving them with respect, dignity, and compassion—values that align beautifully with our community.

Please join us in welcoming Craig to his new role. We’re excited for this next chapter and all that’s ahead.
