Lumber City Care Center is a nursing home with 86 certified beds and serves about 66 residents daily. Peach Health Group LLC has managed it since December 2022, with ownership split between Karen Forrister and David Lemcke. The facility provides skilled nursing care, long-term care, memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, and rehabilitation services like physical, occupational, and speech therapy. Residents get help with daily activities, medication management, and have social and recreational activities available. There are hospice care and companionship services, and caregivers and aides answer bedside buttons for any need, with nurses working all day and night. Lumber City Care Center says it aims to help residents keep as much independence and dignity as possible, using personalized care plans. There's a team focused on making the place comfortable and supportive so residents can enjoy a sense of home. The center has a nurse turnover rate of 54.7%, which is higher than the state average, and nurse staffing is 2.68 hours per resident per day, which is less than the state's 3.5 hour mean. Health inspections have noted several deficiencies, including problems with nutrition, food safety, infection control, accident hazards, and supervision. The most recent CMS report gives the facility a one-star rating. Staff are described as caring and dedicated, but inspection reports are an important source for families to review. Admissions are open every day of the week. More specific information about types of care and amenities will be added when it becomes available.

Responsive staff but severe neglect
I have mixed feelings. The staff I dealt with were responsive, caring and cooperative with our Medicaid coverage, the facility was very clean, my mother enjoyed the food, and hospitalization staff were exceptional. However, communication was poor (no phone access, hard to reach my mother), rehab claims felt deceptive, and I observed neglect (residents struggling to walk, even maggots on a leg) - make sure you verify care before committing.
