Georgia average: 21 deficiencies
Inspection Report Summary for Lillian G Carter Health and Rehabilitation
The most recent inspection on June 25, 2025, found no deficiencies and the complaint investigated was unsubstantiated. Earlier inspections showed a mix of compliance and deficiencies, with notable issues in March 2024 related to care planning, psychotropic medication monitoring, infection control, and emergency preparedness, all of which were cited during routine and life safety surveys. Prior reports also noted failures in COVID-19 data reporting in 2023 and wound care documentation in late 2021, though these were addressed in subsequent follow-ups. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated, with one substantiated complaint in 2024 that did not result in deficiencies. The facility appears to have corrected prior deficiencies over time, with the most recent surveys showing improvement and no enforcement actions or fines listed in the available reports.
