Synopsis

You just heard the word. Now what?

If someone you love has just been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s or dementia, the first few days feel like standing in a room where all the doors look the same and none of them are labeled. You have questions nobody prepared you to ask. The doctor handed you a diagnosis but not a plan. The internet is full of information but none of it seems to be about Georgia. And underneath all of it sits a quieter fear most families don’t say out loud: How are we going to pay for this?

This guide was written for exactly that moment.

It’s not a clinical textbook. It’s the kind of guide a trusted friend would hand you at the kitchen table — one who happens to know everything about Georgia’s care system, its programs, its legal tools, and its financial safety nets. Plain language. Real phone numbers. An honest picture of what to expect, and what it might actually cost.

Inside, you’ll find clear answers to the questions keeping you up tonight:

• Is CCSP or SOURCE the right waiver for our family?

• Why does the income limit jump from $994 to $2,982 — and does that gap matter for us?

• What’s a Miller Trust, and do we need one?

• My loved one is a veteran. What benefits did they earn?

• What’s the difference between a Personal Care Home and a nursing home in Georgia?

• What is Year’s Support, and how does it protect our family after death?

• What legal documents do we need, and what happens if we wait too long?

• When is it time for assisted living? Memory care? Hospice?

• Medicaid denied us. What do we do now?

• I’m exhausted. Where do I get help for me?

This is not a generic dementia book with Georgia stamped on the cover. Every program, phone number, dollar figure, and legal tool reflects Georgia law as of 2026. No other state’s rules. No filler.

More than 188,000 Georgians are living with Alzheimer’s or a related dementia right now. Behind every one is a family doing exactly what you’re doing — trying to figure it out, one step at a time.

You can do this. This guide will help you hit the ground running. You’ll know what programs are available, which ones are right for you, and how to apply successfully.

Start with one call. This guide will tell you which one.
