Haven Memory Care Community of Snellville

Haven Memory Care Community of Snellville, a facility dedicated to helping people with memory loss, has permanently closed. This community offered care for residents with dementia and Alzheimer's disease, using care plans tailored to each person. Staff received advanced training from certified educators, including a registered nurse and Department of Health-certified trainers, often learning the newest help methods from their research department and through their partnership with Teepa Snow, a well-known expert in memory care. The facility provided secure areas to prevent wandering, with features made to keep residents safe and comfortable. Families got support and education about memory challenges and treatments. Staff pay was higher than usual in this field, which drew many skilled people. Programs focused on both daily living and special memory activities, with a mission to give care that aimed for dignity and quality of life over profit. While Snellville's site is now closed for good and no longer operates, the Athens location of Haven Memory Care Community is still open, but it's not clear if the closure in Snellville changes what is available in Athens.
