Mostly long-term care residents
Most residents stay for extended periods and receive ongoing daily care.
Most new residents arrive under Medicaid (56% of admissions), and a typical Medicaid stay runs around 1 years.
Hill Haven Nursing Home is a skilled nursing facility in Commerce, Georgia, operated by Scott Keiser. The 70-bed community serves Jackson County and offers long-term care, short-term rehabilitation, memory care, respite care, and palliative and hospice services.
CMS rates the facility 1 star overall, primarily due to its staffing levels. Nurse staffing averages 2 hours and 37 minutes per resident per day, about 61% below the Georgia average.
Across the nine-year inspection record, the facility has received an average of 7.4 deficiencies per year, 51% above Georgia’s average of 4.9. The most recent standard survey, which concluded in February 2025, cited six deficiencies, including a failure to timely report and investigate a sexual abuse allegation, unsafe water temperatures in five resident rooms, missing employee background checks, and incomplete respiratory care plans.
The facility was revisited in April 2025, and all deficiencies were corrected; the concurrent complaint was unsubstantiated. A complaint investigation in 2023 was substantiated, involving failure to report and investigate an injury of unknown origin. No fines or enforcement actions were recorded.
The facility accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. Its occupancy rate is 83%, above Georgia’s 78.1% average, which means the community carries consistent demand for a small facility.
Hill Haven is best suited for residents in Jackson County seeking skilled nursing, memory care, or post-acute rehabilitation whose coverage aligns with Medicare or Medicaid and for whom a small community setting near Commerce is the practical priority.
Hill Haven Nursing Home is administered by Trevor Matchim.
In Georgia, the Department of Community Health, Healthcare Facility Regulation Division conducts unannounced inspections to ensure facilities adhere to state health and safety requirements.
