Data insights

Quality ratings

CMS's most recent Care Compare release (data as of April 2026) puts Life Care Ctr of Lawrenceville's overall quality rating at 2 out of 5 stars, a composite of three sub-ratings: health inspection (1/5), staffing (3/5), and quality measures (5/5).

What each sub-rating measures

The facility is classified under for profit - corporation ownership, a designation that can influence staffing patterns, reinvestment decisions, and admissions policy. At roughly 64% occupancy, this facility has meaningful open capacity relative to its certified bed count.

Same-ownership peers

Within Georgia, Life Care Ctr of Lawrenceville is one of 101 for profit - corporation nursing homes CMS rates.

This is a high deficiency count relative to most facilities; requesting the full survey report directly is the only way to see whether these are concentrated in one area or spread across the facility's operations.

Where these figures come from

The figures above come directly from the U.S. Centers for Medicare \& Medicaid Services Nursing Home Compare dataset for federal quality ratings, combined with the CareScout 2025 Cost of Care Survey of more than 15,000 elder-care providers nationwide and U.S. Census American Community Survey income data. Cost figures are monthly medians, refreshed annually with each new CareScout release; quality ratings are refreshed quarterly from the CMS Provider Information File. Read these state and county medians as benchmarks, then verify current rates with individual providers and consult care managers before making placement decisions.
