Overview of Cedars Nursing Home, INC.

Located in Lebanon, Tennessee, Cedars Nursing Home, Inc. is a 64-bed skilled nursing facility, offering short-term rehabilitation, long-term skilled nursing, memory care, or respite stays. The community is operated by privately owned Bells Holding Inc., which accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.

CMS gives Cedars a 2-star overall rating. Quality Measures are the main factor of the lower rating, performing 73.2% below Tennessee averages. Health Inspection performance is slightly above state benchmarks.

Nurse staffing averages 4 hours and 10 minutes per resident per day, compared to the Tennessee average of 3 hours and 40 minutes. Weekend staffing averages 3 hours and 35 minutes, above the state weekend average of 3 hours and 20 minutes.

The facility’s occupancy rate is 50%, well below Tennessee’s average of roughly 72%, which reflects current bed availability. Its clearest differentiator is clinical depth for residents with behavioral health needs.

A dedicated Mental Health Behavioral Wing and an on-site staff psychologist are uncommon among facilities of this size. Additional clinical services include IV therapy, comprehensive wound care, respiratory support with oxygen, CPAP, and BiPAP, along with on-site laboratory and X-ray. Residents have access to lifestyle amenities including gourmet meals, an on-site beauty salon, and outdoor seating areas.

Cedars Nursing Home is best suited for residents in Wilson County with complex medical or behavioral health diagnoses who need long-term skilled nursing care, with current availability and clinical resources suited to higher-acuity placements.

LPN / LVN Info Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs.
