What to Consider About Memory Care in Acworth

Located northwest of Atlanta, Acworth, Georgia, is a small suburban town with a population of 22,700. Although one in every 10 residents is 65 or older, Acworth has a relatively low prevalence of Alzheimer's disease. In Cobb County, it's projected that between 6.4 and 7 percent of seniors have Alzheimer's, which is similar to the remainder of Atlanta's five-county metropolitan area. Due to underreporting and an aging population, the number of dementia cases is projected to leap by 35 percent in the coming years.

The Georgia Department of Community Health and its Healthcare Facility Regulation Division regulate both assisted living communities and personal care homes. Families who are searching for memory care in Acworth can choose from more than a dozen facilities, including one in Acworth and 12 more in nearby cities.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Acworth

  • Acworth residents enjoy a competitive cost of living that's just 14 percent higher than the state and national averages. In particular, seniors may benefit from the community's low healthcare costs. Doctor's visits, dental care and hospital stays are 9 percent lower than they are in other parts of the United States.
  • The Acworth area is home to several world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care, such as WellStar Acworth Health Park and Bridgemill Neurological Associates, in the event of medical emergencies or illnesses.
  • As an Atlanta suburb, Acworth's air quality is affected by the city's heavy traffic. The American Lung Association gave Cobb County a D for ozone and a B for 24-hour particulate pollution. Because seniors are more vulnerable to poor air quality, memory care facility may need to provide filtration equipment to remove contaminants.
  • Acworth is a safe community. The number of violent offenses and property crimes is slightly lower than the national average, and the community is substantially safer than the metro Atlanta area as a whole. Memory care facilities are required to maintain secure units to limit unauthorized access.
