Two key state programs provide Medicaid-eligible seniors help with the cost of care: Service Options Using Resources in a Community Environment (SOURCE) and the Community Care Services Program (CCSP). The former provides assistance with intermediate-level nursing care in an assisted living environment, while the latter provides financial assistance for a lower level of care.
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Georgia page.
While many families use their own funds or personal assets to pay for assisted living, there are plenty of additional options to cover these costs. Some additional ways to finance assisted living costs include:

Seniors residing in Smyrna and Cobb County can benefit from many free and low-cost resources. These include counselors who provide advice on how to meet care costs, ombudsmen who advocate for seniors concerned about their care and local groups who help older citizens integrate with the community. The following are some examples of what’s available.
Resource | Contact | Service |
---|---|---|
Retired & Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) | (770) 538-2650 | RSVP is a program that connects volunteers aged 55 and over with local nonprofits and government agencies in their area, enabling seniors to help their communities and put their free time to good use. Volunteers decide how much time they can spare, from working most days of the week to just a few times a year. Assignments vary between areas, with some common examples being meal deliveries to housebound seniors and mentoring younger members of the community. |
Long-Term Care Ombudsman | (404) 627-1057 | Georgia seniors residing in assisted living facilities in dispute with the owners and managers can contact the Long-Term Care Ombudsman for support. The ombudsman will investigate the senior's complaint and seek to resolve it with the facility. Families of residents and third parties can also register complaints with the ombudsman. Complaints that allege criminal behavior, such as neglect, are passed on to the appropriate authorities. |
Georgia Department of Veterans Service | (770) 528-3261 | U.S. military vets, and their spouses, can contact the Georgia Department of Veterans Services to get help identifying and applying for an array of local, federal and veteran benefits. These can include the VA Aid and Attendance benefit, which can be used to cover some residential care costs. The department can also help seniors apply for tax exemptions, renew driving licenses and access their military records. |
Freeman Poole Senior Center | (770) 801-3400 | The Freeman Poole Senior Center provides a way for seniors to meet, socialize, maintain health and learn new skills with their peers. Most classes incur a cost and typically run for 1-3 months, depending on the subject. Fitness classes include tai-chi, gentle yoga and a cardio class fused with other types of workouts. Learning classes include painting and guitar. Woven into the center's learning and fitness activities are a range of competitive games, such as table tennis, chess, billiards and bridge. |
Smyrna-area assisted living communities must adhere to the comprehensive set of state laws and regulations that all assisted living communities in Georgia are required to follow. Visit our Assisted Living in Georgia page for more information about these laws.
