Who are you searching for?
Residential care homes in Marietta may appeal to seniors who value smaller, more close-knit communities and many opportunities for socialization. Marietta care homes typically take in fewer residents, meaning older adults know each resident in the home and develop strong friendships.
Older-adult care homes vary more than other options for senior living in Marietta, so families can choose from a wide range of prices, amenities, and services. A Place for Mom will work with you to understand the cost of care homes. From there, we’ll help you find the right fit, whether you’re staying on a budget or searching for luxury retirement communities.
We are also serving Residential Care Home facilities in surrounding neighborhoods like East Cobb, Kennesaw Mountain National Park and Downtown Marietta.

We know my father is in good hand here in this care home. Everything has worked out very well with his move here. They have a lovely, polite staff. They are kind, and friendly when I come to visit. They provided nice meals, and have good outings, and nice activities available for the residents. He is doing well, and we have no complaints about this care home. We would recommend it.
Finding this home for my mother is a blessing from God. The comfort and support of a family environment while entering hospice care is so very important to my peace of mind and my mother's care. Rodica is a compassionate and professional caregiver. She was willing to accommodate every need. My mother's food preferences, safety and personal care were addressed right away. After many trials to locate affordable services, I am confident that this home is the perfect fit. I am extremely grateful to A Place for Mom for the diligent efforts to help me by supporting both my financial needs and my emotional needs.
