Mabry Health Care had an overall rating of two in the fourth quarter of 2023, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). That's lagging behind the average of 2.7 recorded for nursing homes in Tennessee.

The nursing center had a total of 80 beds available, 34 less than the average in Tennessee as of the fourth quarter of 2023. They aided an average of 48.2 residents during that period.

As of the fourth quarter of 2023, Mabry Health Care has spent a total of $9,884 in five fines and suffered five penalties.

According to US Census data, in 2020, nearly 1 in 6 Americans were aged 65 years or older. Since 1920, the older population skyrocketed from 4.9 million to 55.8 million, reflecting a growth rate of roughly 1,000%, five times higher than the average growth for the overall U.S. population.

A 2021 study suggests that nearly half of this age group, roughly 28 million individuals, may require long-term services and support. Additionally, the study projects that over a third of them may eventually need 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 group. “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.”
