Daybreak Village Senior Living Community is a 65-bed residential facility located at 3056 Cherokee Street in Kennesaw, Georgia. Situated 1.1 miles from downtown Kennesaw in Cobb County, the property is registered to organize independent senior living alongside specialized memory care and temporary respite services.
Oversight files from the Georgia Department of Community Health document critical operational and compliance declines, with the property averaging two deficiencies annually over an eight-year tracking window. The most recent state follow-up survey in May 2025 cited six distinct administrative and safety infractions, including the absence of a qualified administrator designee, direct care personnel lacking current first aid and CPR certifications, multiple employees working without satisfactory criminal background checks, and a failure to complete required fire drills.
State inspectors noted similar recurring credentialing and tracking violations during a September 2024 review when the facility’s active census had dropped to a single resident. Historical logs also record a serious August 2019 resident elopement resulting in a head laceration and hip fracture due to inadequate supervision, followed by a February 2020 citation for the inappropriate use of physical restraints like bedrails and blocked wheelchairs.
Daily household options encompass standard provisions such as common dining rooms, laundry services, housekeeping chores, a beauty salon, and a private event space. Available census registries show a severe decline in demand, with occupancy dropping from 100% in 2019 down to 2% by late 2024. Although a series of complaint investigations between 2021 and 2023 were finalized with a citations-per-inspection rate of zero, the subsequent 2024 and 2025 evaluations reveal systemic lapses in core licensing standards.
Prospective residents and their sponsors must carefully weigh these severe operational disruptions and background check omissions before considering an admission contract. Families can confirm that all on-site staff possess verified background clearances and updated emergency training before visiting.
