In general, Georgia nursing homes are governed by state regulations and receive licenses from the state. In order to be licensed, they must meet minimum standards related to staffing, nursing procedures, diet and building construction. The Office of Regulatory Services (ORS) of the Georgia Department of Human Resources (DHR) licenses the facilities. Nursing homes also must meet certain federal requirements and standards for their Medicare and Medicaid programs.

When choosing a nursing home, you should make sure the facility is licensed, since there are some group homes in Georgia that are not required to be licensed.
