Is Camellia Gardens Center for Nursing and Rehab a good nursing home? Reviews, ratings and inspection record

CMS rates it 1 out of 5 stars overall, below the North Carolina average of 3.0. Inspectors issued 37 citations in the last three years.

Paying for care at Camellia Gardens Center for Nursing and Rehab: Medicare and Medicaid

Camellia Gardens Center for Nursing and Rehab is certified for both Medicare and Medicaid. Medicare Part A can cover a short skilled-nursing or rehab stay here after a qualifying hospital stay of at least three inpatient days (observation days don't count), for up to 100 days per benefit period. Medicaid can pay for long-term care for residents who meet North Carolina's income and asset rules.
