In the fourth quarter of 2023, Pine Knoll Nursing and Rehabilitation Center stood out as the second largest nursing home in Carroll County, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).

Data shows that the nursing center had a total of 122 beds available, 16 more than the average in Carroll County as of the fourth quarter of 2023. They aided an average of 107.8 residents during that period.

Pine Knoll Nursing and Rehabilitation Center had an overall rating of 3 from the CMS, which is higher than the average of 2.5 recorded for nursing homes in Georgia.

During the quarter, Carrollton Nursing and Rehabilitation Center stood out as the largest nursing home in Carroll County, with 159 beds available. Carrollton Manor, Incorporated came in third place, with 100 beds available.

As of the fourth quarter of 2023, Pine Knoll Nursing and Rehabilitation Center has already spent a total of $34,837 in five fines and suffered six penalties.

In total, there were four for-profit nursing homes in Carroll County, Georgia.

According to US Census data, in 2020, nearly 1 in 6 Americans were aged 65 years or older. Since 1920, the older population skyrocketed from 4.9 million to 55.8 million, reflecting a growth rate of roughly 1,000%, five times higher than the average growth for the overall U.S. population.

A 2021 study suggests that nearly half of this age group, roughly 28 million individuals, may require long-term services and support. Additionally, the study projects that over a third of them may eventually need nursing home care.

“Living a long life is something that many of us want and could get,” said Jesse Slome, executive director of the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance, an insurance education group. “But when we live a long life, the chances of us needing long-term care increase exponentially. But when you need that type of care, there are limited options.”
