Lovely weather, first-rate health care, and a diverse fusion of cultures are a few qualities that draw people to Atlanta, also called ATL. This bustling yet darling Southern city is also home to world-class memory care facilities for seniors with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia.

A Place for Mom partners with 20 memory care facilities within a 10-mile radius of downtown Atlanta.

Using proprietary data from our partnered Atlanta memory care communities, we highlight specific information about the costs, amenities, and types of services available in these communities.

The cost of memory care at our in-network Atlanta communities averages around $4,500 per month, according to A Place for Mom’s 2022 proprietary data.[01] This amount factors in the cost of room and boards, care costs, and potential fees for pets, parking, and medication administration.
Memory care facilities must provide additional resources, such as round-the-clock supervision, additional staff training, and additional security features. These extra services usually make memory care pricier than assisted or independent living and are typically included in the monthly rate.
When touring different memory care facilities, you may hear some communities start their pricing at a baseline cost. This is essentially a memory care facility’s starting cost before any extra fees or services are added in. You can take a look at the average starting cost of memory care facilities in Atlanta and surrounding areas below.

Paying for memory care can seem like an impossible feat at first, but it’s attainable with planning. Part of this entails becoming familiar with what financial resources may be available, including both public and private sources of funding. Since many families utilize a combination of private and public payment methods, we highlight several examples of both types that may be able to help pay for memory care in Atlanta.
The availability of private funds differs from family to family. In many cases, these payment methods come from personal savings, retirement income, and investment returns from stocks, bonds, etc. These can all be used to pay for an Atlanta memory care facility, and some families look to these resources before diving into public funding options like Medicare and Medicaid.
While those are among the most common forms of private pay methods, there may be additional assets you may be able to leverage as a means to pay for memory care. You can explore how to use these different types of assets below.
In Georgia, stand-alone memory care facilities and assisted living communities with specialized memory-care units are licensed and regulated by the Georgia Department of Community Health’s Healthcare Facility Regulation Division (HFRD). The HFRD is also in charge of inspecting facilities. You can access inspection reports, license verifications, and facility listings on its website.
All facilities have to comply with the state’s rules and regulations for assisted living communities, which include the following:
Atlanta assisted living facilities with specialized memory care units must meet a few extra requirements on matters such as community design, admission requirements, and staff training. You can browse through some of the criteria in place for Atlanta memory care facilities below.
Assisted living communities in Georgia can’t admit residents who require skilled nursing care, are bedridden, or have care needs that can’t be met at the facility. Additionally, prospective residents must meet special requirements to be admitted to a memory care center, which includes completing a physical examination within 30 days of admission. This report must be able to confirm the following:
Memory care centers must conduct an assessment of residents after admission to determine their care needs. The post-admission assessment should identify elements such as the following:
All residents in a memory care center should receive a direct care plan that’s reviewed and signed by all participating direct care staff. Residents’ families are also encouraged to participate in developing a care plan, when possible, to factor in personal and family history. These care plans should be reassessed quarterly and updated as needed to reflect any changes in a resident’s needs.
Certain safety measures need to be met in a building’s physical design to make sure memory care residents can safely live within a community. Memory care facilities must provide multipurpose common spaces for dining and group activities, as well as the following:
Just as assisted living communities are required to provide residents with social activities, memory care centers must provide activities that promote the following:
Memory care centers must be properly staffed to make sure the unique needs of each resident can be met. At a minimum, the following requirements must be provided by memory care centers:
All memory care center staff should receive initial and annual training. Memory care centers are required to preserve all documentation for all training sessions that details the course content, attendance rosters, and instructor qualifications.
All direct care staff in an assisted living facility must receive an initial orientation within the first 30 days that goes over matters such as general infection control practices, emergency preparedness, and recognizing physical or cognitive changes in residents.
All direct care staff who work in a memory care center, regardless of their role, must complete 4 hours of dementia-specific orientation within their first 30 days of employment. This orientation specifically covers the following topics:
Additionally, memory care staff must complete an annual 8 hours of dementia-specific training, as well as 16 hours of specialized training that include subjects such as those listed below:
Georgia doesn’t currently have COVID-19 regulations in place for memory care communities, but facilities will likely have their own policies in place to protect staff and residents. You can find general guidance for long-term care facilities on the Georgia Department of Public Health (DPH) website, but it’s always a good idea to check with an Atlanta memory care facility directly before visiting.
Atlanta has lifted most of its emergency COVID-19 restrictions, but city officials encourage residents to continue following guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for the following:
Vaccinations. Everyone should stay up to date on COVID-19 vaccines and boosters, especially people who are immunocompromised.
Quarantining. People should self-isolate for at least five days if they test positive for COVID-19 and follow the CDC guidelines on when to end isolation.
CDC guidelines. The CDC recommends getting tested if you have symptoms, were exposed to COVID-19, or will be in contact with someone at risk of getting very sick.
Masking. People should consider wearing a mask when visiting people with a higher risk for severe illness, and some communities may require them in public indoor spaces.
