PRUITTHEALTH - CREEKSIDE

PRUITTHEALTH - CREEKSIDE is a skilled nursing facility (SNF) in Augusta, GA. Skilled nursing facilities provide 24-hour medical care and supervision, rehabilitation services (physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy), and long-term custodial care for seniors who require more intensive medical support than assisted living can provide.

PRUITTHEALTH - CREEKSIDE has a CMS Certification Number (CCN: 115777), which confirms it is certified to accept Medicare and/or Medicaid reimbursement for skilled nursing services. Medicare typically covers short-term skilled nursing care following a qualifying hospital stay of at least 3 days, for up to 100 days under specific clinical conditions. Long-term Medicaid coverage for nursing home care is available for eligible lower-income seniors and varies by state income and asset rules.

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has rated PRUITTHEALTH - CREEKSIDE 2 out of 5 stars overall. The CMS 5-Star Quality Rating System combines three components: health inspection results (3/5), staffing levels (1/5), and quality measures (2/5). CMS updates these ratings periodically as new inspection cycle data becomes available.

Based on available CMS data, PRUITTHEALTH - CREEKSIDE does not have federal financial penalties on record. This is a positive indicator — federal monetary penalties are typically issued for serious or uncorrected health deficiencies. That said, absence of penalties does not guarantee a deficiency-free inspection record; standard health inspection findings are tracked separately in the CMS inspection reports available through Care Compare.

The AllyKin Safety Score of 45/100 (rated "Caution") is an educational estimate derived from publicly available government data. For nursing homes, the score incorporates CMS star ratings for health inspections, staffing, and quality measures; federal deficiency counts and their severity; financial penalties; complaint-triggered violations; whether the facility has an overdue inspection; and nursing staff turnover rates. For assisted living and memory care, the score draws from state licensing records and inspection data. This score is an educational tool — not an official government rating — and should always be used alongside the full CMS Care Compare profile and state inspection reports before making care decisions.
