How to read PARKSIDE CENTER FOR NURSING AND REHAB AT ELLIJAY's star rating
The CMS overall star rating for PARKSIDE CENTER FOR NURSING AND REHAB AT ELLIJAY is a composite of three separately measured domains: health inspection results from state survey teams, staffing levels reported through payroll-based journal data, and clinical quality measures drawn from resident assessments and Medicare claims. A 3-star overall rating means PARKSIDE CENTER FOR NURSING AND REHAB AT ELLIJAY performs around the national middle.

For PARKSIDE CENTER FOR NURSING AND REHAB AT ELLIJAY, CMS currently publishes 2 out of 5 for health inspections, 2 out of 5 for staffing, 5 out of 5 for quality measures. Health inspection scores are graded on a curve within each state, so this facility's inspection score is a ranking against other Georgia providers rather than an absolute measure. Staffing scores reflect reported nurse hours per resident day, and quality-measure scores reflect resident outcomes such as falls, pressure ulcers and hospital readmissions.
In local context: the Georgia average is 2.7. PARKSIDE CENTER FOR NURSING AND REHAB AT ELLIJAY rates 3 out of 5, in line with that benchmark. Comparing a facility against its own local market matters because inspection severity, Medicaid reimbursement rates and staffing supply all vary sharply by state.
What PARKSIDE CENTER FOR NURSING AND REHAB AT ELLIJAY's inspection record shows
No deficiency citations for PARKSIDE CENTER FOR NURSING AND REHAB AT ELLIJAY appear in the CMS extract this page is built from.

Before you rely on a clean record, ask PARKSIDE CENTER FOR NURSING AND REHAB AT ELLIJAY for the date of its most recent standard survey and for its current CMS Form 2567.

What nursing home costs near Ellijay, Georgia
Georgia nursing home typically runs $3,400 to $5,400 per month, a midpoint of roughly $4,400 — about $52,800 a year. This is a state-level market estimate from published rate data for this care type, not a quote from PARKSIDE CENTER FOR NURSING AND REHAB AT ELLIJAY, and it is the single figure on this page that is modelled rather than reported.
Actual pricing at PARKSIDE CENTER FOR NURSING AND REHAB AT ELLIJAY depends on room type, whether the community charges a flat all-inclusive rate or a base rate plus tiered care levels, and one-time community or entrance fees. For skilled nursing, Medicare may cover a limited post-hospital stay in full for the first 20 days and partially through day 100 when the stay qualifies; long-term custodial care is generally paid privately or through Medicaid once assets are spent down.
When you call PARKSIDE CENTER FOR NURSING AND REHAB AT ELLIJAY, ask for the total monthly figure at the care level being recommended — not the base rate — plus the schedule of annual increases over the last three years and what triggers a move to a higher care tier.
