For Marietta families weighing alzheimer's care, here's the 2026 picture — local costs, Georgia licensing, and the questions that matter most before you tour.

Marietta in context

Marietta is the Cobb County seat and a longtime senior-care hub, with a steady, moderately priced mix of Personal Care Homes and Assisted Living Communities around The Marietta Square and East Cobb.

Marietta sits in Cobb County. Nearby hospitals include WellStar Kennestone Hospital, WellStar Cobb Hospital, which matters for discharge planning and for staying close to a parent's doctors. Families here commonly focus on areas such as The Marietta Square, East Cobb, Franklin Road Corridor. Marietta pricing generally runs near or below the metro median.

Alzheimer's Care: what you're actually buying

Alzheimer's care is dementia-specific memory care with secured units, structured routines, and staff trained for the behaviors that come with Alzheimer's and related dementias.

It is delivered within a Georgia Assisted Living Community or Personal Care Home that carries the state's <b>Memory Care Center</b> certification under 111-8-63 — there is no standalone Alzheimer's license. A typical monthly range is $5,000 to $7,200 a month.

Before you tour, know what actually predicts quality:

  • how the community handles sundowning and exit-seeking behavior
  • whether the care plan is reviewed as the disease progresses
  • the ratio of trained caregivers to residents on the memory unit at night

The money side in Marietta

In the Marietta market, alzheimer's care typically runs $5,000 to $7,200 a month. Marietta pricing generally runs near or below the metro median. Most families combine sources over time: private savings and Social Security first, then long-term-care insurance if it's in place, VA Aid & Attendance for eligible veterans and surviving spouses, and Georgia's Community Care Services Program (CCSP) waiver (and, for some households, the SOURCE program), which can cover care services (not room and board) for those who meet the income and asset tests.

Verify any community's license and inspection record on the Georgia DCH/HFRD facility search (dch.georgia.gov) before you commit — it's the one statewide database that covers every provider in Cobb County.

Common questions

How much does alzheimers care cost in Marietta?
Alzheimers Care in Marietta typically runs $5,000 to $7,200 per month. Final pricing depends on the level of care, room type, and the specific facility — small board-and-care homes are usually cheaper than large communities. Buckhead, Sandy Springs, Alpharetta, and Johns Creek tend to run higher; South Atlanta, parts of DeKalb, and outer Gwinnett/Cobb run lower. For an exact quote for your situation, call a free ATL Senior Advisor advisor at (404) 555-0100.
Does Medicaid cover alzheimers care in Marietta?
Medicaid does not directly pay for room and board in alzheimers care settings, but Georgia's Community Care Services Program (CCSP) waiver and the SOURCE Medicaid HCBS program cover personal care, attendant care, and in-home/community-based services, which can offset much of the care portion for eligible residents. Eligibility is income- and asset-based. Our advisors can walk you through what your parent qualifies for and which Marietta facilities accept the plan.
How do I know if a alzheimers care facility in Marietta is licensed?
Every legal alzheimers care provider in Marietta is licensed by the Georgia Department of Community Health (DCH), Healthcare Facility Regulation Division (HFRD), under Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. 111-8-62 (Personal Care Homes) and 111-8-63 (Assisted Living Communities / Memory Care Centers). You can look up any facility's license, inspections, complaints, and regulatory actions directly through the Georgia DCH/HFRD facility search (dch.georgia.gov). We only refer families to facilities with active, clean licenses.
What's the difference between alzheimers care and a nursing home?
Alzheimers Care is for older adults who need help with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication reminders) but don't require 24/7 skilled medical care. Nursing homes (also called skilled nursing facilities, or SNFs) provide ongoing medical care from licensed nurses for residents with serious medical conditions or post-hospital recovery needs. Many Marietta families start with alzheimers care and transition to skilled nursing if care needs increase.
How fast can I move my parent into alzheimers care in Marietta?
Most Marietta facilities can accept a new resident within 3–10 days, assuming the health assessment, financial paperwork, and physician's order are complete. Memory care can sometimes be same-day or next-day if a secured unit has availability. Call us at (404) 555-0100 for current openings in your preferred neighborhood.
