Haven Memory Care of Athens, LLC

Overview of Haven Memory Care of Athens, LLC

Haven Memory Care of Athens, LLC is a 56-bed specialized residential facility located at 705 Whitehead Road in Athens, Georgia. Situated roughly 3.4 miles from the downtown area, the community provides memory care and rehabilitation services with 24-hour staffing. The property is positioned approximately four miles from Piedmont Athens Regional hospital and offers secure housing for residents with Alzheimer’s and related conditions.

Regulatory oversight from the Georgia Department of Community Health reveals a strong recent compliance history with an average of only one deficiency per year. The facility maintained a citations-per-inspection rate of zero during its most recent surveys in December 2024 and September 2025. While an October 2023 investigation noted issues with kitchen sanitation and care planning, and a March 2025 report identified a violation regarding resident ambulatory status, subsequent clean inspections indicate these matters were resolved.

This community’s service model integrates clinical support with daily residential assistance, including physical, occupational, and speech therapies. Care coordination features on-site physician and geriatric psychiatric services, as well as hospice aging-in-place options for long-term support. Administrative protocols manage specialized memory programming and respite care, supported by a medical staff that oversees the wellness of up to 56 residents.

Individualized resident support includes routine housekeeping, laundry services, and spiritual programs within a secure environment. The facility’s performance is currently 80% better than the Georgia state average for deficiencies, and no fines or enforcement actions are present in the public record. Management has demonstrated an ability to address earlier documentation and safety findings through reinforced operational standards and consistent regulatory adherence.

Prospective representatives are encouraged to schedule an on-site visit to observe the specialized memory programming and therapeutic services in person. During the tour, it is advisable to discuss the current ratio of non-ambulatory residents with the administrator to ensure the community continues to meet its aging-in-place requirements. Families should also verify that the sanitation and medication safeguards remain consistent with the high standards reflected in the most recent state inspections.
