Overview of Northstar Place

Northstar Place is a 72-bed assisted living facility located at 3250 Quick Water Landing NW in Kennesaw, Georgia. Situated 1.1 miles from the downtown district in Cobb County, the community provides regular personal care, memory support, and temporary respite stays. The property delivers age-inclusive programming designed for individuals requiring daily supervision within a structured environment.

State administrative tracking records from the Georgia Department of Community Health note a long-term average of 1.4 deficiencies per year, performing 71% better than the statewide average for personal care homes. Earlier files from 2017 to early 2022 document critical citations, including a 2019 resident elopement through doors damaged by a lightning strike, staffing gaps, unsecured exit boundaries, incorrect medication administration, a verbal abuse incident, and an instance of staff financial exploitation. However, historical logs indicate that all involved personnel were terminated, and a May 31, 2023, annual survey alongside subsequent complaint audits in 2023 and late 2022 concluded with a citations-per-inspection rate of zero.

Daily clinical operations utilize a 22-hour and 24-hour monitoring model to manage medication distribution, execute direct personal care plans, and secure specialized memory care neighborhoods. Available regulatory indexes show no active financial penalties or license restrictions on file, indicating that historical facility corrections and physical plant adjustments were successfully validated by state inspectors.

Prospective residents or their representatives evaluating this mid-sized senior living choice can review the facility’s recent multi-year trajectory of improved safety compliance. The campus layout is appropriate for older adults transitioning to memory support, whose advocates value clear incident response records and verified property security.
