In the first quarter of 2026, Oakview Health and Rehabilitation earned a 4 out of 5 overall rating, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) reports. This rating exceeded the average of 2.7 for Georgia nursing homes recorded during the same period.

U.S. Census Bureau estimates show that while the country’s older adult population continues to rise, the population of younger age groups is declining. Between 2020 and 2024, Americans age 65 and up rose by 13%, while those under 18 decreased by 1.7%. Over the last century, the nation’s older adult population expanded substantially, growing from 4.9 million in 1920 to over 61 million by 2024.

Research released in 2021 found that about one in two Americans in this age range—approximately 28 million individuals—may require long-term services and support. The analysis also forecasts that more than a third could eventually rely on nursing home care.

“Living a long life is something that many of us want and could get,” said Jesse Slome, executive director of the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance, an insurance education association. “But when we live a long life, the chances of us needing long-term care increase exponentially. But when you need that type of care, there are limited options.”
