Fountainview Center for Alzheimer is a 120-bed memory care nursing home in Atlanta, Georgia, operated by David Small. The facility has served the Briarcliff Heights area for over 54 years, with residents staying an average of three years and maintaining 88% occupancy.
Over nine years of inspections, the facility recorded 25 deficiencies, 2.8 per year, compared to Georgia’s state average of 4.9. A July 2025 revisit survey confirmed correction of all deficiencies from the prior May survey, including pressure ulcer prevention and pain management. One substantiated complaint in December 2024 resulted in no violations. The facility reports no fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions.
Certified nursing aides provide 2 hours 31 minutes of direct care daily per resident, placing it in Georgia’s top 30. Total nursing hours average 4 hours 20 minutes per day, 20% above the state average and the 26th highest among Georgia skilled nursing facilities. Registered nurse coverage runs 15 minutes daily, reflecting the facility’s focus on long-term memory care rather than acute care.
The facility operates 24-hour skilled nursing with on-site geriatric psychiatry, rehabilitation, respite care, and hospice services. Performance data shows 33% better outcomes than state benchmarks for fall prevention and clinical complication management. The facility holds Medicare and Medicaid certification.
Older adults needing extended memory care and psychiatric support will find a setting focused on stability and dementia management. The facility’s long-standing presence in the community reflects its capacity to sustain care over extended resident tenures.
Fountainview Ctr for Alzheimer is administered by Mr. Teddy Watts.
In Georgia, the Department of Community Health, Healthcare Facility Regulation Division conducts unannounced inspections to ensure facilities adhere to state health and safety requirements.
