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.
The details that matter most rarely show up in the brochure:
- 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

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 Fulton County.
