404 King Springs Village Pkwy, Smyrna, GA 30082
Overview of Delmar Gardens of Smyrna

Delmar Gardens of Smyrna offers independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing in Smyrna, GA. Independent living means private living with community services and no daily care, while assisted living includes help with dressing, bathing, medication, and other daily tasks. Memory care is provided in a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. Skilled nursing provides licensed nursing care on site around the clock.

The range of care levels may suit a resident whose needs grow over time, since care can change without leaving the community or starting over socially.

The community has 92 beds, with apartments as the available housing option. Total nurse staffing is 3 hours 39 minutes per resident per day, representing the daily hands on nursing time assigned to each resident. Payment options include Medicare for skilled care after a hospital stay, Medicaid when a family’s savings may not cover a long stay, and private pay.

A pool gives residents an on site place to swim, while the salon or spa supports personal grooming without arranging an outside visit. Restaurant style dining includes three meals a day prepared by Executive Chefs, with a Registered Dietitian available to help with menu planning and special diet needs. A Walk Score of 46 indicates a car dependent setting where most errands require a car or a ride, so a resident who no longer drives generally needs transportation for errands.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in Georgia

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Georgia?

Assisted living in Georgia supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

Does Georgia Medicaid cover memory care?

Georgia Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including Georgia) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 413 memory care communities in Georgia. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community in Georgia?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Georgia, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting memory care communities in Georgia?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered.
