In the first quarter of 2026, ownership of Jefferson City Health and Rehab Center belonged to B&y Healthcare S, Corp. and Cody Healthcare S, Corp., as reported by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).

The nursing home is classified as a for-profit operation.

During this quarter, the facility was awarded an overall CMS rating of 2, which is lower than the state nursing home average of 3.0 in Tennessee. CMS ratings assess nursing homes on factors such as health inspections, staffing, and resident care quality.

The data shows Jefferson City Health and Rehab Center provided care to an average of 151.8 residents per day during the first quarter of 2026, out of a total of 170 available beds. The facility is not affiliated with a hospital.

For the same period, Jefferson City Health and Rehab Center incurred one fine totaling $8,788 and received one penalty.

U.S. Census Bureau estimates show continued growth in the country’s older adult population, while numbers in younger age groups decline. From 2020 to 2024, Americans 65 and older rose by 13%, and those under age 18 declined by 1.7%. The older population in the U.S. has expanded rapidly since 1920, growing from 4.9 million to more than 61 million by 2024.

A study from 2021 indicates that close to half of older Americans—about 28 million—will likely need long-term services and support, with projections showing over a third could require 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. “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.”
