Amada Senior Care North Atlanta
Alan and Lisa Waters, owners of Amada Senior Care North Atlanta, are passionate about providing superior care to make the lives of clients safer and happier. Alan had experiences with in-home care for his own family when he was young, and now that he is older he is happy to “pay it forward” by coordinating personalized and compassionate care for seniors in Sandy Springs, Norcross, North Atlanta, Druid Hills, Duluth, Dunwoody, Buckhead, Decatur, Chamblee, Doraville and other communities.
The husband-wife team also regularly answer the call to serve as a community resource for in-home elder care. They jump on every opportunity to educate families about various aspects of the senior care journey, as Alan did in this article about the benefits of having a Long-Term Care insurance policy for in-home care.
Alan says, “I was born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia, and my grandmother lived in Charleston, South Carolina. As her abilities began to be limited by her age, my father and his brother were concerned that our distance would make it unsafe for her to continue to live in her home. Fortunately, they found a special home-care aide and Grandma was able to live out her days in comfort at home. I was young at the time, but now I see the value of what that meant to my dad and his brother—to know their mother was cared for and maintained her dignity. This is why Lisa and I are so proud to work with Amada Senior Care.”
At Amada Senior Care North Atlanta, we constantly look for ways to bring enjoyment to clients’ lives by making even the most common tasks and activities special. Our in-home caregivers form close bonds with clients as well as with their loved ones, which allows them to earn trust and meet all of their needs in a more meaningful way.
We realize that living at home is not always ideal for some of our clients. In these cases, we work closely with seniors and their families to identify, finance, and transition to the right assisted living or senior community for them. At Amada North Atlanta, we support our clients and their loved ones through every step of their senior care journeys.

We have worked with Amada for several years coordinating the care of my mother, who suffers from dementia. The Amada team did an incredible job for over 5 years providing 24/7 in home care. The commitment to care was very impressive. Eventually, we needed to find an assisted living facility. Lisa walked us through the entire process and truly wanted to find the right fit for our family. I don't think I could have navigated the process, and I'm a physician myself! If your family has a need for caregivers or assistance finding a facility, I highly recommend Alan and Lisa.
There aren't enough words to say about the family of Amada Senior Care in North Atlanta. Lisa introduced me to this world of Senior care I knew nothing about. How are you supposed to know all the terminology when finding care for your Senior Loved ones? She was so patient with explaining everything to me. From the caregivers and how they are so in synchrony with the office LaToya scheduling, To having the RN Anna stop by and check on how things are going in the home. Everything seems so personalized with them. Even Lisa stops by occasionally to visit and make sure all needs are met. I couldn't imagine how much more difficult it could be making these decisions without her guidance. I couldn't imagine using anyone else around for senior home health care. I am sure when the next step of finding a senior residence that she is the one to ask for guidance on that decision.
Lisa Waters gave me every ounce of her knowledge during my inquiry. She is compassionate and caring and gave me more than enough information to start my mother's journey. She assisted in lessening my stress. You are lucky to have her as am I!
I was referred to Lisa Waters at Amada Senior Care by a skilled nursing facility. I was in need of moving my 98 yr old mother for long term care after hip surgery. I cannot express in words how helpful Lisa was in every last aspect of providing care. She was available days, nights and weekends.
Not only did Lisa provide me with options for LTC facilities, she was instrumental in setting up transportation service for my mother, had a hospital bed waiting at the new facility for us, worked hand in hand with the nursing facility to transfer the medical orders in a timely fashion, worked to get hospice started, and the list goes on and on.
I am probably like most people who don't know the ins and outs of senior care, facilities, Medicare, laws, etc. so having Lisa with the knowledge and connections to captain the ship was simply invaluable.
At the end, my mother passed. I would imagine that most senior care consultants would "close the file," but not Lisa! She stayed in contact, made sure there were no issues, jumped in and got involved to assist with a problem and kept reassuring that she was still here to help.
In today's world, it seems like finding someone who actually cares and wants to do the right thing for people is harder and harder to find. I am so happy that I found Lisa and Amada Senior Care at a time when I really needed it. I would HIGHLY recommend Amada for anyone looking for home health or a senior care consultant!!!
Lisa has been an incredible help whilst going through such a complicated process. I really appreciate her quick and helpful responses.
Lisa was tremendous in helping find a care facility for my parents. In addition to bringing her wealth of experience and knowledge, she was responsive, compassionate, understanding, and patient throughout. She was always willing to reach out to facilities or other parties to help facilitate or expedite the process. I would not hesitate to recommend Lisa and Amada to friends or family that are seeking care for their loved ones. Thank you, Lisa!
Senior Housing Advising
When seniors or their loved ones begin to feel that they require more support than in-home care and assistance with basic ADLs, it may be time to consider transitioning to an assisted living community.
This is an emotional decision for everyone involved, and our goal at Amada Senior Care in North Atlanta is to guide families through the placement process with wisdom, empathy, and competence.
For some seniors, an assisted living community, typically offering non-complex medical services, may be a good fit. Others may require a bit more support and may be better served in a nursing home or different type of care community.
The team at Amada Senior Care North Atlanta has years of experience with senior care in Acworth, Alpharetta, Atlanta, Austell, Buckhead, Decatur, Chamblee, Doraville, Druid Hills, Dunwoody, Kennesaw, Marietta, Norcross, Roswell, Sandy Springs, Smyrna, Woodstock, and other communities. As a result, we have deep knowledge of all local care communities and can make sure our clients find the ideal placement to suit their care needs, locations, lifestyles, and budgets.
We also rely on our extensive experience to help our clients make full use of all benefits available to them, including veterans’ benefits and Long-Term Care Insurance benefits. The costs of assisted living may intimidate many families, but we can help them make financial decisions with confidence. To further ease cost concerns, the Amada North Atlanta team is pleased to offer its placement services free of charge.
When in-home care is no longer ideal for our clients, we are honored to guide them through this next phase. Our specialty is referring seniors to the right community or placement for them, which may include:
- Assisted living communities
- Large and small communities
- Independent living communities
- Board and care homes
- Adult family homes
- Senior care homes
- Skilled nursing facilities
- Alzheimer/dementia communities
