Canterfield Communities & Support Groups

Canterfield is not just a home that provides care and joy to seniors across the southeast, we are also an active part of our communities. We provide a safe space to host events for caregivers in our area, support groups for those caring for dementia-afflicted seniors, and events and informational sessions for our residents and their family members. 

It is important to us that we promote healthy, active living in all ways — beyond our duties as caregivers for our residents. If you’re looking for support, look no further than your nearest Canterfield community.

Our Marketing Director at Canterfield of Kennesaw is on the board of ACAP: Adult Children Caring for Aging Parents. This group hosts free monthly educational programs, covering a broad range of caregiving topics. The events are open to all, as they “emphasize the importance of self-care and proactive aging strategies for caregivers themselves.”‍ ‍Join Canterfield of Kennesaw’s ACAP chapter on their website.

At Canterfield of Clay County and Canterfield of Franklin, we host monthly Dementia Caregiver Support Groups, with each meeting focusing on a different topic led by a health professional. Stay up to date on the next meeting through their Canterfield of Clay County and Canterfield of Franklin’s Facebook pages.

In addition, all our communities offer respite care for short-term senior care, providing relief for burnt-out caregivers.
