Nursing Home Care Senior Living

We would like to introduce you to the Sadie G. Mays Health & Rehabilitation Center. Remodeled in 2010, our facility is located on 15 private acres in the heart of Atlanta, Georgia. We offer comprehensive nursing and rehabilitation services, provided by caring and friendly staff in a bright and attractive setting.

With 206 beds, Sadie G. Mays Health & Rehabilitation Center is one of the larger communities in the area, senior care communities in Atlanta average about 57 beds. Larger communities more often keep clinical staff on site around the clock and can offer a wider range of on-site therapy and activities, though some families prefer the quieter feel of a smaller setting.

Federal reporting puts occupancy at about 56% of its licensed beds, so availability is more likely here than at busier communities nearby. That is below the Atlanta average of roughly 86%.

Medicare rates this community 1 out of 5 stars overall, a score based on health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Communities in Atlanta average about 1.9 stars. Its most recent standard health inspection was in December 2025 and recorded 5 deficiencies.

The community is located in Fulton County, GA.

Medicare five-star ratings

  • Overall ★★★★★ 1/5
  • Health inspections ★★★★★ 1/5
  • Staffing Not reported
  • Quality measures ★★★★★ 3/5

This community did not file the payroll return CMS uses to work out nursing hours. CMS scores a missing return as one star, which looks the same on this page as a home that reported and staffs thinly, so we leave the staffing score out rather than show you a number that says nothing about its nurses. The missing return does still count against the overall score above. It is a fair thing to ask about on a tour: how many staff are on at night, and at weekends.

A citation on its own does not mean poor care, and most are corrected within weeks. What matters most is how serious the findings were and whether the same problems keep coming back. When you visit, it is fair to ask the administrator what inspectors found and what has changed since.
