Overview of Spring Gate Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center

Spring Gate Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center occupies a single-story building at 3909 Covington Pike in Memphis, Tennessee. The 206-bed facility has been operating for 34 years under various operators and is currently run by Memphis Operator, LLC, with Kristian Carr-Grisby as administrator. Care designations include nursing home, memory care, palliative care, and respite care. The Covington Pike corridor carries a Walk Score of 30, so families and staff will almost always need a car.

Current occupancy is 119 of 206 beds, a 58% fill rate. The average length of stay is 99 days; a figure that reflects both short-term rehabilitation cases and residents with longer-term nursing needs.

Staffing runs at 2 hours and 55 minutes of total nursing care per resident per day, with registered nurses providing 49 minutes of that. A doctor is on staff, and a medical director is on site. The 900 square-foot rehabilitation and therapy center supports physical, occupational, and respiratory therapy. Named clinical programs include wound care therapies, IV medication therapy, dysphagia training, a fall management program, and a patient and family education program.

The on-site services list is notably broad for a facility this size: a dentist, podiatrist, dialysis unit, salon and spa, and religious services are all available without leaving the building. Pet therapy is offered. Dining is described as fine dining with gourmet menus. Residents have access to an outdoor courtyard, manicured gardens, a family and resident lounge, in-room cable, and WiFi. The facility accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and private pay.

State inspections have tended to focus on medication management, infection prevention and control, fall and injury prevention, care planning and documentation, resident rights and protections, staffing and staff credentials, environmental and hazardous-materials safety, and housekeeping and upkeep; a wide range of operational areas.

Spring Gate offers a clinically dense, full-service environment in Memphis including dialysis, dentistry, podiatry, and multiple named rehabilitation programs on one campus, and is suited to older adults with complex or layered care needs whose families want specialty services accessible without arranging outside transport.

Overview of Harborview Post Acute

Harborview Post Acute is a nursing home in Memphis, Tennessee, offering skilled nursing and short-term rehabilitation. Owned by Juniper Cove Holdings, LLC and led by Craig Bullick, this community has served the region for more than 33 years and maintains a current Tennessee license valid until July 2026. The community mainly assists residents moving from hospital settings who require professional nursing and organized therapy before transitioning back to their homes, serving as a practical choice for those needing post-hospital support in Memphis.

Federal staffing records indicate that Registered Nurse time per resident daily is 38 minutes, which is just above the Tennessee mean of 37 minutes. Licensed Practical Nurse time reaches 1 hour 13 minutes daily, exceeding the state norm by 12% and showing dependable mid-level medical coverage. However, nurse aide time is 1 hour 36 minutes per day, which sits 26% lower than the state average of 2 hours 9 minutes. This is an important detail for older adults since aides provide the majority of hands-on daily assistance.

Total nursing time on weekends is 2 hours 48 minutes, 16% under the state average, which indicates lower staffing levels during those days. In terms of health outcomes, the community excels in fall prevention with zero reported falls resulting in major injury and has a lower emergency room visit rate than the state average. Conversely, the percentage of residents regaining self-care skills by discharge is 24%, which is notably lower than the Tennessee average of 53.7%.

This community provides physical therapy, short-term recovery tracks, and constant oversight from licensed nurses and assistants. Therapy services are a particular highlight, as physical therapist hours are 20% higher than the state average, which is a significant asset for a recovery-centered environment. Individual living spaces are also provided, while its operational style is designed to help residents progress toward gaining independence. Medicare is welcomed for short-term professional nursing stays that follow an eligible hospital visit for older adults. The community also maintains around-the-clock staffing for both temporary recovery and extended nursing needs.

Harborview Post Acute is ideal for older adults healing from medical procedures, illness, or physical trauma who need temporary professional nursing and therapeutic services in Memphis, Tennessee. The availability of individual rooms and the high ratio of therapy staff make it a sensible choice for post-hospital recuperation. However, families should consider the lower nurse aide and weekend staffing figures alongside the positive safety records.

Overview of Quince Nursing and Rehabilitation Center

Quince Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, a 188-bed skilled nursing facility at 6733 Quince Road in Memphis, Shelby County, Tennessee, is operated by Quince Nursing and Rehabilitation LLC. Owner Julie Cottrell and administrator Felix Strickland oversee operations.

The facility holds a 1-star CMS overall rating, with a 1-star health inspection rating; 65.8% below the Tennessee state average, and maintains exceptionally high occupancy at 94.6%, ranking 33rd among 302 Tennessee facilities.

The facility’s inspection record documents serious, recurring failures in resident care and safety. Most recently, on July 1, 2025, state investigators found that Quince failed to perform neurological assessments and monitoring after a resident experienced a seizure event. That resident subsequently died. The same inspection identified the facility’s failure to timely collect laboratory specimens for another resident exhibiting hematuria, delaying diagnosis and treatment of a urinary tract infection and resulting in hospitalization.

State investigators determined the facility’s nursing staff lacked competencies required to detect changes in resident condition and perform necessary assessments.

All three deficiencies were cited at critical severity; the highest regulatory classification, indicating situations placing residents at imminent risk of death or serious bodily injury. A $72,000 federal civil penalty was imposed in July 2025.

In October 2021, investigators substantiated critical violations for resident elopement; a vulnerable resident with confusion and hallucinations left unsupervised outside the facility for 39 minutes. The same investigation cited critical deficiencies for medication storage and failure to maintain resident dignity. Four inspections since 2019 yielded 21 total citations; 425% above the Tennessee average, with 5 critical violations (355% worse than state average).

Nursing staffing measures 3 hours 47 minutes per resident per day, marginally above the state average of 3 hours 40 minutes.

Financial performance shows an operating loss of $1.3 million against $20.8 million in revenue.

Quince’s inspection history reflects persistent systemic failures in clinical assessment, supervision, and care management, with the most recent critical findings involving irreversible resident harm.

Yes — Tennessee Medicaid covers nursing home care for residents who meet income, asset, and medical-need eligibility requirements. Most CMS-certified nursing homes accept Medicaid as a primary payer once long-term-care eligibility is established.
