Georgia Senior Care Research
SeniorTrustHub keeps Georgia Department of Community Health license classes separate from CMS certification. A Personal Care Home is not an Assisted Living Community. An Assisted Living Community is not a nursing home. CMS Nursing Homes, Home Health, and Hospice in Georgia are already in the federal directories. State license files, GaMap2Care rows, and HFRD inspection reports were not acquired. Missing is not zero. No ranking.
Separate official universes
CMS certification is not a Georgia license
Healthcare Facility Regulation Division at the Georgia Department of Community Health licenses state care settings. CMS certifies Nursing Homes, Home Health, and Hospice. Those directories are not added together, and neither directory is the department's program statements.

Facility classes
State classes stay separate
An Assisted Living Community (Chapter 111-8-63) is a personal care home licensed for 25 or more residents. A Personal Care Home (Chapter 111-8-62) is a different license. A Community Living Arrangement (Chapter 290-9-37) is supported with DBHDD funds. Adult Day Centers (Chapter 111-8-1) are not residential. Private Home Care Providers (Chapter 111-8-65) are not CMS Home Health. A state nursing-home license (Chapter 111-8-56) is not a CMS CCN.

Regulator statements, not hub totals
Department figures are not TrustHub counts
The Personal Care Home Program team provides oversight to a total of 2,910 facilities that consists of Personal Care Homes, Assisted Living Communities, Community Living Arrangements, and Adult Day Care/Adult Day Health Centers that serve approximately 55,000 residents.
That sentence describes one program across four classes. It is not a Personal Care Home count, not an Assisted Living Community count, and not a TrustHub entity total. The page does not date the figure; retrieval on 2026-09-23 is not a license effective date.
The State of Georgia has 357 Long Term Care Facilities that includes both Nursing Homes and Skilled Nursing Homes that serve over 40,000 residents.
That long-term-care statement is not the 356 CMS Nursing Home directory rows in Georgia. The CMS source clock is 2026-08-01. The department page does not publish a source date for 357. HFRD also describes division-wide oversight that includes hospitals and laboratories. That description is not a senior-care census.
Evidence
What was acquired, and what stops here
CMS Nursing Home profiles already carry federal inspection dates, ownership, and penalties on the CCN. Those clocks are CMS dates, not Georgia license dates. Source modified 2026-08-01 for CMS inspection dates. HFRD inspection reports were not indexed and no PDFs were parsed (0 parsed). Zero parsed files is not zero inspections. The official search remains HFRD inspection report search.
Provider-level complaint records were not acquired. The complaint intake form is not a dataset, and an inspection is not a complaint. Enforcement orders were not acquired. GaMap2Care is the official facility finder and did not expose a clean public data file on this pass, so state-only facilities are not listed here. Missing is not zero. Atlanta is a place, not a license system.
No state license was joined to a CMS CCN. Name-only matching was not used. Existing CMS profiles stay on their CCN routes: nursing homes in Georgia, home health in Georgia, and hospice in Georgia.
