In the first quarter of 2026, Tennova Lafollette Health and Rehab Center was owned by Health Management Associates, LLC, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). Since Dec. 31, 2016, Health Management Associates, LLC has owned the Campbell County nursing home.

The facility operates as a for-profit nursing home.

During that timeframe, Tennova Lafollette Health and Rehab Center maintained an overall CMS rating of 4, exceeding the Tennessee state nursing home average of 3.0. CMS bases ratings on factors including health inspection results, staffing, and resident care quality.

Data indicates the nursing home served an average of 61.1 residents daily during the first quarter of 2026, across its 98 licensed beds. Currently, the facility is located within a hospital.

No fines or penalties were issued to Tennova Lafollette Health and Rehab Center in the first quarter of 2026, according to records.

At that time, Campbell County was home to 3 for-profit nursing facilities.

Estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau show the country’s population of older adults continues to climb as younger numbers fall. Between 2020 and 2024, the population aged 65 and older grew by 13%, while those under 18 declined by 1.7%. Over the last century, the older adult population in the U.S. has risen significantly, from 4.9 million in 1920 to over 61 million by 2024.

A 2021 analysis predicts that nearly half of Americans in this age group—about 28 million people—may require long-term care or related support. More than one-third could ultimately need nursing home services, according to the same projections.

“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.”
