Does Northstar Square offer memory care?
HFRD's public data does not show memory care at Northstar Square, and none of its indexed surveys describe a memory care unit. That does not prove it has none; ask whether it holds Georgia Memory Care Center certification before considering it for a parent with dementia.
Certification under 111-8-62-.19 / 111-8-63-.19 brings a secured environment, dementia-specific staff training and added activity and staffing requirements. Read our walkthrough on verifying Memory Care Center certification.
