About Bostick Nursing Center

Bostick Nursing Center is a skilled nursing and long-term care facility in Milledgeville, Georgia, licensed for 280 residents. It provides inpatient nursing care and ongoing residential services.

Family experiences at Bostick are notably mixed. Admissions staff, particularly Erica and Garnette, consistently receive praise for being welcoming and informative during the intake process. Several families report that direct care staff, including nursing and CNAs, treat residents with respect and maintain clean living spaces. One family wrote that they "didn't let these bad reviews turn us away" after visiting in person. However, other families describe serious operational challenges: management accountability gaps around maintenance and supply availability, uneven treatment across different units, and reported staffing turnover that affects continuity of care.

The facility holds a 2.8 out of 5 Google rating based on 38 reviews, reflecting a polarized feedback pattern in which families who have toured or placed loved ones tend to rate their experience highly, while others cite systemic management and resource concerns. Prospective families may find that a personal visit offers a clearer sense of day-to-day conditions than the aggregate rating alone.

I have worked with Erica in admissions via phone and email trying to get my brother placed. She was always very friendly and caring. A bed became available and we drove over 4 hours to take him. Erica was all that I expected her to be. Her entire team was so warming and welcoming. I have other family members in nursing facilities and I can tell you this is one of cleanest facilities that I have been in. I have no worries that my brother will be taking care of.

This place has the poorest management I’ve ever seen. Their washer and dryer were broken and they blamed the aides working agency instead of being accountable. There is no way for staff to provide care without the supplies to do it. Having ignorant management that knows they don’t provide supplies and still blames staff when needs aren’t met reflects in their score. The building is also infested with roaches.

I called the facility to inquire about getting my mother placed and was greeted on the phone by Garnette, lovely person. Erica the admissions coordinator was so helpful and informative on the steps and process I need to take. She truly has a lovely spirit about herself. She offered me a tour of the facility but from first impression I am defienlty sold. I plan to update my review after I tour the facility next week.

Please go see the facility and meet the staff for yourself. My grandfather is the facility and my mom spoke highly of the staff, Ericka from admission so awesome to work with as far as getting your loved ones placed. Merci and the nursing staff are amazing. My grandfather has been there a couple of months and I'm so glad we didn't let these bad reviews turn us away. Building is always clean and doesn't have that nursing home smell. Ladies at front desk are awesome as well.

How our free service works, and how we are paid

Georgia asks us to share this with you in writing before we introduce you to a community.

MyLivingChoice is a free service that helps you find senior living. We are paid by our participating communities: if you move into a community we introduced you to, that community pays us a referral fee. You never pay us anything.

We do not own or manage any community, and none owns us. Our only ties to the communities we list are the referral agreements that pay us and the listing upgrades some buy. A community that pays us is marked Partner or Sponsored on our site, and a community that has bought verification is marked Verified.

The communities we suggest may not be every one in your area, and we can only make introductions to communities that work with us. We suggest communities by the care you need, the area, your timeline and budget, and what families say about them, never by what a community pays us. If a community stops meeting our qualifications, for example its licence lapses or it stops accepting referrals, we stop suggesting it.

To make an introduction we share your name, contact details and the care needs you told us about, and nothing else. You can stop using our service at any time, for any reason and at no cost, and if you do we will let any community we introduced you to know.
