Primarily short stays
Residents typically stay for brief periods, with frequent admissions and discharges throughout the year.
Most new residents arrive under private pay (66% of admissions), and a typical private pay stay runs around 1 - 2 years.
Keysville Nursing Home & Rehab is a 64-bed skilled nursing facility located in Blythe, Burke County, Georgia, providing short- and long-term care to Medicare and private-pay residents. Operated by Tiffany Godowns, the community maintains an occupancy rate of 88%, exceeding the Georgia state average of 78.1%. The facility accepts Medicare for short-term rehabilitation stays (typical 1–2 months) and private-pay residents for longer placements averaging 291 days.
Staffing includes 3 registered nurses, 13 licensed practical nurses, and 39 certified nursing aides. Nurse hours average 2 hours 45 minutes per resident daily, roughly 24% below Georgia’s state average. For residents requiring frequent assistance or wound care, this staffing ratio warrants careful consideration. The facility offers on-site nursing assessment and care planning, with connections to community rehabilitation services for post-acute recovery.
Over eight years, Keysville has averaged 3.3 deficiencies annually, performing 33% better than Georgia’s average of 4.9 per year. A January 2024 standard inspection found the facility in substantial compliance with no deficiencies cited. However, a May 2025 inspection identified three deficiencies: a non-functioning exit sign affecting 10 residents and a power strip left on the floor in the administrative office, both posing safety risks. The facility also failed to thoroughly investigate an abuse allegation, missing required witness interviews and state authority referral for a resident with newly evident mental health concerns. Most complaint investigations have been unsubstantiated, and the facility has no pending fines or license actions.
Keysville is best suited for residents seeking skilled nursing care in a moderately sized, established community with stable long-term operations. The facility’s strength lies in short-term rehabilitation placements and stable private-pay residency. However, families should assess staffing levels carefully against their loved one’s acuity needs. The community is car-dependent, with a walk score of 8, making it appropriate for families who can provide transportation or arrange off-site appointments.
Keysville Nursing Home & Rehab is administered by Donna Davis.
In Georgia, the Department of Community Health, Healthcare Facility Regulation Division conducts unannounced inspections to ensure facilities adhere to state health and safety requirements.
