What is the difference between assisted living and memory care in Georgia?

Assisted living in Georgia is a licensed Personal Care Home or Assisted Living Community that provides housing, meals, medication help and hands-on personal care; memory care is that same setting delivered in a secured, dementia-specific unit that must meet Georgia's extra Memory Care Center rules. HFRD licenses the building as a PCH or ALC and certifies the memory care unit on top of that license.

Who licenses assisted living in Georgia?

The Georgia Department of Community Health, Healthcare Facility Regulation Division (HFRD) licenses and inspects both Georgia assisted living license types: Personal Care Homes under Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. 111-8-62 and Assisted Living Communities under 111-8-63. An ALC is a personal care home with 25 or more beds that HFRD has licensed to provide assisted living care.

How do I check a Metro Atlanta assisted living community's inspection record?

Search the community's name in HFRD's Inspection Report Search, which posts each routine, complaint and follow-up survey from roughly the past three years with its citation count. Every listing on this page shows how many surveys HFRD has indexed, and each facility page lists them with links.
