Memory care that keeps your loved one home.
Hearth is Middle Georgia's certified specialist in dementia and Alzheimer's care. Trained, familiar caregivers and a plan built for memory loss — so your family gets calm, safety, and their own life back.
Trusted by Middle Georgia families
Ember-certified caregivers
Every visit. Every family. No exceptions.
Everything the franchises leave open, we built on purpose
Home Instead, Comfort Keepers, and Griswold are capable generalists. But memory care needs a specialist — and that's the gap Hearth fills.
Memory care is all we do
Not one service on a long menu. Every care plan, caregiver, and coaching session at Hearth is built around dementia and Alzheimer's — the region's only true specialist.
The same faces, every visit
Franchises send whoever's free. We assign a small, consistent care team so your loved one sees familiar people — the single biggest comfort for a memory-care client.
Ember-certified caregivers
100% of our caregivers complete a 40-hour memory-care certification before their first shift, plus monthly coaching. No other Middle Georgia agency requires it.
A person, not a call center
You get your care advisor's direct cell number. Real answers, day or night — never a phone tree routed three states away.
Ember Certified™
Our memory-care standard
Care shaped by how memory loss actually feels
Generic companionship isn't enough when confusion, agitation, and wandering enter the picture. Our caregivers are trained for the hard moments — and the tender ones.
- Redirection & de-escalation for agitation and sundowning
- Fall-prevention and safe-wandering home routines
- Familiar-routine care plans that reduce confusion
- Non-pharmacological engagement: music, memory boxes, purposeful tasks
- Nutrition & medication reminders tuned to memory loss
- Family coaching so caregiving at home feels less alone
From first call to trusted routine — in days, not weeks
Free consultation
Tell us what's happening at home. A care advisor listens — no scripts, no pressure — and answers your hardest questions.
In-home assessment
We visit to understand routines, risks, and what lights your loved one up, then build a dementia-first care plan around them.
Matched care team
You're introduced to a small, Ember-certified team chosen for personality fit — the same faces every visit.
Care that adapts
As needs change, your plan flexes. Your advisor checks in regularly, and you can reach a real person anytime.
The relief of finally being understood
Composite stories reflecting the families we're built to serve.
“Two agencies told us Mom was 'too much' when she started wandering at night. Hearth's caregivers had actually been trained for exactly that. For the first time in a year, we all slept.”
“The same two caregivers come every week. Dad calls them by name now, even on the foggy days. That consistency is everything with Alzheimer's — the big companies could never give us that.”
“My care advisor gave me her cell number and actually answers it. When you're caring for a parent with dementia, knowing a real person is one text away changes your whole week.”

The big franchises are generalists — they staff whoever is available and treat memory care as one service among many. Hearth is built specifically for dementia and Alzheimer's. Every caregiver completes our 40-hour Ember memory-care certification, you keep the same small care team instead of a rotating roster, and your family gets a dedicated care advisor's cell number, not a call center.
Yes. 100% of Hearth caregivers complete our proprietary Ember certification covering redirection, sundowning, fall prevention, and non-pharmacological behavior support — plus ongoing monthly coaching. We're the only agency in Middle Georgia to require it of every caregiver before their first shift.
We serve Macon, Warner Robins, Perry, Milledgeville, and the surrounding Bibb, Houston, and Baldwin county communities. If you're just outside our current radius, add your details to the list and we'll tell you exactly when we'll reach you.
Private-pay memory care in our region averages about $25/hour. Most families we serve schedule around 30 hours per week for meaningful daily support. We build a plan around your loved one's needs and budget during a free in-home assessment — no long-term contract required.
Often, yes. Behaviors that overwhelm a generalist agency — wandering, resistance to care, agitation at sundown — are exactly what our caregivers are trained for. We specialize in the situations others find 'too complex.'
After your free assessment we typically match a certified care team and begin within 48–72 hours. Urgent hospital-to-home transitions can often start sooner.
