Overview of Regency House of Buford

Regency House of Buford is a 64-bed personal care home at 4450 Old Hamilton Mill Road in Buford, Georgia. Since its licensure in 2024, the facility has served Gwinnett County by providing memory care and respite services within a supportive residential setting. The property is located in a car-dependent suburban area and is situated approximately 4.5 miles from Northside Hospital Gwinnett.

State regulatory data from the Georgia Department of Community Health includes two reports documented in 2025. The facility maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of zero, with both a January 2025 monitoring visit and a June 2025 complaint investigation finding no violations of state rules. This clean compliance record throughout the facility’s initial operational period indicates consistent adherence to Georgia’s health-licensing requirements.

The service model coordinates personalized nursing care and assistance with daily living activities for its 64 residents. Care coordination includes specialized support for seniors with memory impairment and short-term stay options for family caregivers seeking temporary relief. Staffing is focused on maintaining a secure environment while managing the physical and social needs of residents in a newly established community.

Supportive services are designed to facilitate safety and comfort through structured daily routines and personal care assistance. Although the facility has roughly one year of operational history, it currently performs significantly better than the state average for deficiencies. Operational protocols emphasize regulatory standards during this startup phase, with no fines or enforcement actions on record.

Interested individuals are encouraged to meet with the administrative team to discuss the specific memory care and respite programs available. During an on-site visit, families can evaluate the living environment and verify that the current staffing levels meet the participant’s care requirements. Prospective residents should use this opportunity to confirm the details of short-term stay arrangements and ensure the facility’s specialized services align with their personal health goals.
