Our read on Garden View Care Center At Dougherty Ferry

Garden View Care Center At Dougherty Ferry runs 5.96 nurse hours per resident day, roughly half again the national average of 3.86, and that staffing shows up in a 4-out-of-5 staffing star. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, so the weekday-to-Saturday gap is worth asking about directly. The five-star health inspection rating reflects the survey from June 2024, which found 14 deficiencies, none of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, though two were abuse-related, a small number against strong staffing, but abuse citations are the kind you want explained rather than counted. The 1-out-of-5 quality measure rating is the clear weak spot here, and it sits oddly beside the staffing picture.
