About Sadie G. Mays Health & Rehabilitation Center

+
Sadie G. Mays Health & Rehabilitation Center is a historic, mission-driven skilled nursing facility located at 1821 Anderson Avenue NW in Atlanta's 30314 zip code. Operated as a nonprofit corporation, Sadie G. Mays has long served the medically underserved communities of west Atlanta with a commitment rooted in equity, dignity, and high-quality clinical care. The center honors the legacy of its namesake—a pioneering African American civic and healthcare leader—through its continuing dedication to the neighborhoods she championed. The facility sits in the heart of Atlanta's historic Westside, surrounded by the neighborhoods of Vine City, English Avenue, and Washington Park. This area carries profound cultural significance as home to several of Atlanta's most celebrated historically Black colleges and universities. Morehouse College, Spelman College, and Clark Atlanta University are all within a short distance, giving the broader community a rich academic and civic identity that many residents and their families have been part of for generations. For medical coordination, Grady Memorial Hospital—Atlanta's foremost public hospital and a level-one trauma center—is accessible just east via I-20, making hospital-to-rehabilitation transitions efficient for patients leaving acute care. The expressway network also connects families from throughout the metro to the facility with ease. The surrounding neighborhood is experiencing meaningful reinvestment. Mercedes-Benz Stadium, home to the Atlanta Falcons and Atlanta United FC, anchors the eastern edge of the district alongside Centennial Olympic Park and the expanding Georgia World Congress Center campus. The Atlanta BeltLine Westside Trail runs through the broader area, connecting the community to greenspace and transit options citywide. For history-minded visitors, Herndon Home—the restored mansion of Alonzo Herndon, Atlanta's first African American millionaire—is a nearby landmark, as is the Sweet Auburn corridor and the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Site just a short distance east. As a nonprofit provider, Sadie G. Mays prioritizes community service and resident wellbeing above all. Their skilled nursing team delivers comprehensive post-acute services including rehabilitation therapies, wound care, IV management, and complex medical care—backed by a staff culture that reflects the deep community bonds the organization was founded to serve.
