Gordon Health and Rehabilitation's upper-tercile CMS stars

Quality ratings

CMS's most recent Care Compare release (data as of April 2026) scores Gordon Health and Rehabilitation on three sub-ratings that roll up into the overall star: health inspection, staffing, and quality measures. Each is charted against the Georgia average below.

What each sub-rating measures

The health inspection rating reflects on-site surveyor findings from the last three cycles. The staffing rating compares case-mix-adjusted nurse hours per resident day to national benchmarks, and quality measures aggregate 15 clinical indicators including pressure ulcers, falls with injury, and long-stay antipsychotic use.

Size and setting

Located in Calhoun, Georgia. Bed capacity and average daily census, where CMS reports them, are in Facility details below. Its ownership type, listed in Facility details, can influence staffing patterns, reinvestment decisions, and admissions policy. At roughly 97% occupancy, this facility is running near full capacity, worth confirming current bed availability directly before visiting.

Same-ownership peers

Within Georgia, Gordon Health and Rehabilitation is one of 54 non profit - other nursing homes CMS rates. Its 5-star overall rating sits above the non profit - other-segment average of 3.5 stars, ahead of roughly 78% of same-ownership peers in the state. Peer comparisons within the same ownership type are more apples-to-apples than a state-wide average, since for-profit, non-profit, and government operators tend to differ systematically in staffing and reinvestment.

Inspection record

On the regulatory side, federal and state surveyors have documented a limited number of deficiencies at this facility; the counts are in Facility details below. CMS has levied no enforcement penalties over the equivalent window. A handful of documented findings is common even among well-run facilities; the F-tag scope and severity codes on the full report distinguish isolated paperwork issues from resident-harm findings.

Where these figures come from

Figures above come from CMS Nursing Home Compare (Care Compare, data as of April 2026) with state cost medians from the CareScout 2025 Cost of Care Survey. See our methodology for vintage.
