Did you know almost one in five Medicare
patients hospitalized in the U.S. is
readmitted within a month of release,
costing the government
billions of dollars each
year? Rehospitalization
is an expensive problem.
Fortunately, challenges
inspire opportunities. Here
at PruittHealth, we have
developed an innovative
model of care to provide
comprehensive, streamlined
solutions. Our model of care
is designed to significantly
reduce rehospitalizations
and improve the overall
outcomes for our patients.
PruittHealth has
provided health care and peace of
mind to patients, residents and families
around the Southeast for four decades.
We are a family-owned community of
services with quality as our top priority,
even from our humble beginning as the
Toccoa Nursing Center in 1969. Now, as a
regional leader with more than 170 provider
locations and an array of business-to-
business care services, PruittHealth skilled
nursing and rehabilitation centers continue
to exceed in comparison to national
for-profit companies in the Centers for
Medi¬care &Medicaid Services Five-Star
Quality Rating System. We also recently
announced that 17 of our skilled nursing and
rehabilitation centers were recognized as the
“Best” by U.S. News &World Report.
We stand by our mission each day and
believe it to be at the core of our success:
“Our family, your family, one family;
committed to loving, giving and caring;
united in making a difference.” Like the oak
tree that represents our brand, PruittHealth
embodies life, growth, strength and stability,
anchored by a solid foundation. Nurturing
our roots, we empower persons and families
in our care to thrive despite the changing of
the seasons. As the health
care landscape continues
to shift, we continue to
do what’s right and what’s
needed to deliver the
highest quality of care
possible.
We are committed to
caring and helping you
live your best life. Our
vision is to be innovators
in a seamless and superior
health delivery system to
the communities
we serve. We aim
to inspire, create
and revitalize not
just the body but the soul of our patients.
PruittHealth is focused on the future of
health care and delivering on its quality
promise of caring for you and your health.
PruittHealth attributes our thriving
growth and development as a leading
provider of health care services to our strong
emphasis on quality initiatives throughout
all aspects of our family-centered care and
service delivery. We continue to rise to
the challenges and opportunities of new
legislation, regulations and technology, as
well as offer a better quality of life to those in
need. Family is so important to all of us and
you can be assured that your loved one is a
valued member of the PruittHealth family of
care.
