The location is nestled near a beautiful college whose students occasionally stop in. Close by we have a library, recreation center, beautiful churches, a swimming pool, the finest cornucopia of restaurants the South has to offer and residential activities galore!

“Three years ago, I moved to Georgia to live near my only child. I was attracted to Philips Tower because of the location in downtown Decatur. Living here has been very beneficial for my health and peace of mind. It offers so many activities. We go to plays, ballgames and museums. We have a wellness center that offers personal counseling. The very caring staff has always been there to help. I've made great friendships with people who have enriched my life; I know this was a great move for my senior years.”

“Living at Philips Tower has been a blessing. Because of my failing eyesight, I was no longer able to drive. My doctors suggested senior living. I was drawn here because of the location. I can walk to several wonderful restaurants. Three banks are in walking distance; drugstores, fast food places, a public library, recreation center and a park are minutes away. It’s made me feel independent again to be able to walk to these places. I love Philips Tower!”

—Jackie F.

“I thank God for Philips Tower. Not only do they provide plenty of activities to keep us busy, but the staff is friendly and courteous. They have also given me the opportunity to use my God-given gift by providing me a space for my Bible study. I also have the opportunity to welcome pastors to our beautiful church services on Sundays. God bless the staff at Philips Tower.”
