The Gardenias

Overview of The Gardenias

The Gardenias is a 48-bed senior property located at 75 Dutchtown Road in Hampton, Georgia. Situated at the city center in Henry County, the facility coordinates daily personal care, secure memory support, and short-term post-acute rehabilitation services.

Oversight documentation maintained by the Georgia Department of Community Health outlines a mixed regulatory profile, with the community averaging 2.8 deficiencies annually over an eight-year assessment window. The most recent state survey on April 23, 2024, cited three infractions regarding an employee lacking infection control training, three workers missing pre-employment physical exams, and a failure to conduct mandatory fire drills.

Historical records reflect broader administrative and safety challenges, including a January 2022 review for improper medication administration, a November 2021 survey for missing bedroom smoke detectors and unsecured medications, and a March 2020 evaluation that cited eight deficiencies for severe staffing shortages, unhygienic flooring, and falsified admission agreement signatures.

Daily physical operations utilize a 24-hour staffing framework alongside an on-call registered nurse to manage medication tracking and emergency responses. On-site services incorporate restaurant-style dining options, individualized care planning, a beauty salon, and a schedule of group therapeutic activities. Although historical safety and reporting gaps are noted, multiple state complaint investigations across 2022 and 2023 were finalized with a citations-per-inspection rate of zero, indicating that inspectors verified the resolution of those specific consumer intakes.

Interested individuals evaluating this 48-bed care option should perform direct due diligence regarding the facility’s contemporary administrative protocols. The property is suited for residents whose sponsors can regularly monitor ongoing fire safety compliance, staff training files, and medication pass routines.
