For the third year in a row, Lenbrook, Atlanta’s premier intown community for engaged senior living for more than 40 years, ranks number one in Georgia in the 50-99 bed category on Newsweek’s list of America’s Best Nursing Homes 2027. The study considered nursing homes in all U.S. states and the District of Columbia.

 

“Being ranked number one in Georgia in the 50-99 category by Newsweek for the third year in a row is an honor that results from the dedication of the Lenbrook team in providing high-quality healthcare to residents,” said Chris Keysor, President and CEO of Lenbrook.

 

The ranking highlights high-performing facilities nationwide using a range of quality measures and groups results by small, medium and large bed counts to enable fair comparisons. The list serves as a helpful resource for individuals and families researching nursing home options and identifying facilities that demonstrate strong performance within their size category.

 

Diana Bailey, Vice President, Health Services at Lenbrook, said, “Our amazing healthcare team takes great pride in providing excellent care centered on residents’ needs. Being recognized again by Newsweek is a testament to that commitment and care.”

 

Lenbrook offers a wide array of services and outstanding amenities that support active aging. Its full continuum of healthcare services on one campus includes an Assisted Living Center and a Medicare-certified Health Care Center with 60 private skilled nursing rooms.

 

Newsweek worked with Statista to evaluate nursing homes on four pillars: performance data, peer recommendations, accreditations and resident satisfaction. Statista used Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) data to determine the performance of nursing homes. For peer recommendations, Statista invited thousands of registered nurses, nursing home managers and administrators, licensed practical nurses / licensed vocational nurses, nursing assistants, therapists and physicians to an online survey. Additionally, experts from all over the U.S. could participate in the survey of the America’s Best Nursing Homes on newsweek.com. Accreditations from the Joint Commission International (JCI) and Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) were included in the scoring model, where available. Public evaluations from Google were included for each nursing home as a minor evaluation pillar.
