Nursing homes across Cobb County, Georgia, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
A.g. Rhodes Home in Marietta runs on real staffing depth, 4.59 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekend coverage dipping only about 12% below its own weekday level. That's better than most homes manage. Turnover sits at 32.6%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers know residents. The tradeoff shows up in its record: 15 deficiencies, five of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, and three tied to abuse. The most recent inspection was December 2025. A nonprofit with a 4-star inspection rating and steady staffing, but the harm-level and abuse findings are the part of the file a family should ask about directly.
Delmar Gardens Of Smyrna runs 120 certified beds under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers sit below where you'd want them. Total nurse coverage comes in at 3.67 hours per resident day against a 3.86 national average, and weekends drop roughly 12% below the home's own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover at 41.1% is a notch better than the 45.8% national figure, which is real but modest.
The bigger issue is the inspection record: 23 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with a $23,537 fine and a recent February 2026 inspection. Quality measures score well, but that sits alongside a two-star staffing and health inspection picture. Ask directly how the abuse-related citations were resolved.
Pruitthealth - Austell runs 124 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.67 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop roughly 20% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit most. Turnover at 43% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, though that's a low bar. What stands out is the inspection record: 28 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level, one abuse-related, and a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, with the most recent survey dated December 5, 2025. The quality measure and staffing stars both sit at 4, but inspection findings carry real weight.
Ross Memorial runs 4.14 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, but that average hides a drop: weekends run about 18% below the home's own weekday staffing. Annual turnover sits at 50.4%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, so the people covering those weekend shifts may be new. The current record shows 18 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. The last inspection was July 2025, so the picture is recent. CMS rates the home 4 out of 5 on inspections and 5 out of 5 on quality measures, with staffing at 3.
Autumn Breeze runs lean on nursing hours, 3.34 per resident day, roughly 14% under the national average, and weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage shows up in a 2-star staffing rating, even though the home keeps its people: 23.2% turnover against a 45.8% national average, meaning fewer unfamiliar faces than most places. The inspection record is mixed. Twelve deficiencies sit on file, five of them at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, but the most recent inspection was March 2026 and the health and quality ratings both come in at 4 stars. Corporate-owned and licensed for 109 beds, this is a home where consistency and care measures look better than raw staffing depth.
East Cobb Center runs lean on nursing hours, 3.57 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends thin out further, dropping about 12% below the home's own weekday coverage. Staff turnover sits at 50%, above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for your family member are cycling through faster than average. The current record shows 11 deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse, and the most recent inspection was in August 2025. Clinical quality measures score well, but the staffing picture is the weakest part of this home's profile. Worth asking how they cover weekend shifts and how many aides have been there more than a year.
Anderson Mill runs 170 beds in Austell under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely solid, a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating, last surveyed in May 2025, with 12 deficiencies on file and none rising to harm or jeopardy, none abuse-related. The staffing picture is where it gets uneven. At 3.11 nurse hours per resident day, this home sits roughly 20% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 11% below its own weekday levels. Annual turnover of 54.5% runs well above the 45.8% national figure, which means caregivers are cycling through faster than average. If your family member needs steady, familiar hands on weekends, ask how the schedule is covered.
Presbyterian Village runs about 4.59 nursing hours per resident each day, roughly 19% above the national average, and weekend coverage holds within about 10% of weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 38.2%, better than the 45.8% national figure. The weaker spots are inspections and quality measures, both rated 2 out of 5, with 12 deficiencies on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, plus one fine of $64,718. The last inspection was January 29, 2026. For a 107-bed nonprofit, the bedside staffing is the real strength here; the survey history is what pulls the overall picture down.
Pruitthealth - Marietta runs 2.94 nurse hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a quarter less hands-on time than the typical home. That gap shows up in the staffing rating, and weekend coverage dips about 8% below what the building manages Monday through Friday. Turnover sits at 56.8%, well past the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing that care are often new. The current inspection record carries 18 deficiencies, including two at the harm-or-jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with $8,948 in fines. A February 2026 inspection is recent enough to reflect present conditions. Corporate-owned and for-profit, it earns top marks on quality measures but struggles where it counts most: enough consistent staff.
Powder Springs Center For Nursing & Healing runs 208 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.19 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 17% under the 3.86 national average, with weekends about 13% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is the one clear bright spot: 22.9%, well under the 45.8% national figure, so the people who stay tend to stay. Against that, the record shows 24 deficiencies, two serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and three fines totaling $16,802. A January 2026 inspection is recent, which helps, and there are no abuse-related citations. The pattern is a home where care capacity looks stretched even as retention holds up.
Roselane Health Center By Harborview runs 137 certified beds in Marietta under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits just under the national average at 3.81 nurse hours per resident day. That looks close enough on paper, but weekends run about 14% thinner than weekdays, so the coverage your relative gets depends heavily on which day it is. Inspectors have logged 25 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way and one tied to abuse, which helps explain the middling inspection score and the $6,682 fine on file. Turnover at 27.1% is genuinely better than the 45.8% national figure, though, staff here tend to stay longer than at the typical home.
Tower Road Post Acute runs 138 beds in Marietta under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is the weak spot: 3.25 nurse hours per resident day, about 16% under the national average, with weekends roughly 15% thinner than weekdays. Turnover sits at 58.3% against a national 45.8%, so aides and nurses are cycling out faster than residents can get to know them. The health inspection record shows 32 deficiencies, none at harm level but one abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was January 2026. Quality measures score well, but staffing is what families feel day to day, and that's where the numbers fall short.
Marietta Center For Nursing And Healing runs 154 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers are the first thing to notice: 3.27 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average, with weekends about 10% thinner than weekdays. That shortfall shows up in the CMS staffing rating of 1 out of 5. Turnover sits at 63.3% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for your relative are fairly new to the building. The current inspection record carries 30 deficiencies, including three at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. State surveyors were last in on June 15, 2025.
