Lumber City Nursing & Rehabilitation Center

Overview of Lumber City Nursing & Rehabilitation Center

Lumber City Nursing & Rehabilitation Center has operated an 86-bed skilled nursing home at 93 Highway 19 in Lumber City, Georgia, for 51 years. The clinical floor coordinates 24-hour schedules with a focus on short-term recovery, offering living options in both private and semi-private rooms. The front office works with standard major insurance networks alongside traditional public health programs to cover resident care.

The facility centers its daily routine on physical, occupational, and speech therapies, paired with structured discharge planning and a wound care program. The surrounding area gets a walk score of 28 out of 100, meaning the immediate neighborhood is mostly car-dependent, and visitors will need a vehicle for typical local trips. To support people transitioning back home or recovering from recent surgical operations, the clinical team balances these therapy sessions with everyday medical oversight.

State regulators inspect the property during routine health and safety audits. Public code records from past years show inspection reviews focused on general care documentation, environmental safety systems, and infection protocols. The facility uses these standard evaluation reports to update its maintenance schedules and adjust employee clinical workflows across the daily shifts.

Prospective residents can get in touch with the registration desk to check on specific room layouts, ask about the physical or speech therapy options, or set up a time to see the property.
