Overview of Hardin Home Nursing Home

Hardin Home Nursing Home is a nursing home in Savannah, Tennessee, offering long-term care and rehabilitation services. Owned by J. Park and Son, Inc., the community has served the Hardin County region since 1973, representing more than 50 years of steady service. With 39 licensed beds, it is a privately owned setting that accepts Medicaid for those needing financial assistance. The community also holds Tennessee Health Care Association accreditation and maintains a valid state license through April 2026.

Significantly, the community has achieved a 5-star overall score from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, which is the top honor available in the federal nursing home comparison system. The 5-star federal rating serves as a vital quality benchmark, showing excellent results in health reviews, employee levels, and clinical outcomes. The latest state evaluation on file took place in November 2021.

With its smaller scale, staffing efforts are focused on a small group, which generally encourages more customized attention for older adults. This community provides 24-hour coverage from licensed nurses and certified assistants. Its membership in the Tennessee Health Care Association also demonstrates a dedication to professional excellence in the local long-term care sector.

This community delivers professional nursing alongside recovery therapy, constant licensed oversight, and dedicated memory support programs for Alzheimer’s. Social and hobby-based events are offered to residents to promote mental stimulation and emotional health. With a history of more than five decades of operation, the private and local ownership implies stable neighborhood ties and low staff turnover, which many families find comforting when choosing long-term care for older adults. A walkability score of 60 also indicates that some local errands are possible on foot, while other services are a short drive away.

Hardin Home Nursing Home is best suited for older adults in the Savannah area who require professional nursing or memory assistance in a small, person-centered setting will find a strong fit here. The 5-star federal status and over half a century of experience in the region establish it as one of the most reputable and established nursing options nearby. The limited number of beds also helps create a calm, neighborly environment that can be more beneficial for residents than larger communities.

Overview of Rosewood Manor

Rosewood Manor operates at 1400 Rosewood Drive in Columbia, Tennessee, serving 68 residents in a highly walkable downtown location (Walk Score 77, ranked 16th among state nursing homes). The facility provides nursing and assisted living care with 24-hour staffing comprised of licensed nurses and CNAs supporting residents across intermediate and complex care levels. On-site rehabilitation, recreation programming, and spiritual and cultural services create a structured environment for long-term residents.

Daily operations integrate social support through nutrition services, counseling, and volunteer programs. Housekeeping and linen service handle facility maintenance, freeing clinical staff for resident care. The community earned a Progress Award from Health Excellence Canada, reflecting operational quality standards. This mix of clinical depth, wellness programming, and community integration distinguishes the facility within its regional market.

Regulatory oversight provides limited longitudinal visibility. The most recent available inspection report dates to September 30, 2009, predating current operations by more than 15 years and offering only historical baseline context rather than current compliance standing. Families seeking current regulatory detail should contact the Tennessee Department of Health directly to verify current licensing status and recent inspection findings. State records will clarify the facility’s active standing and any recent inspection activity.

The downtown location benefits residents with family connections in the Columbia area and those valuing neighborhood walkability and proximity to local services.

Rosewood Manor fits residents and families seeking nursing-level care within a community-engaged, spiritually grounded setting with established volunteer relationships and cultural programming.

Overview of Spring Meadows Health & Rehabilitation

Spring Meadows Health & Rehabilitation is a 121-bed nursing home in Clarksville, Tennessee, that offers skilled nursing, short-term rehabilitation, long-term support, and specialized memory care. Licensed since July 1992 and managing care for 33 years, this community is currently owned by Spring Meadows SNF Operations, LLC, and accommodates those utilizing Medicare. This community also maintains an active membership in the Tennessee Health Care Association and has received recognition from U.S. News & World Report within its Best Nursing Homes rankings, while carrying an overall 2-star quality performance rating from CMS.

Federal data awards the highest possible tier to its long-term resident quality measures, while short-term recovery outcomes are ranked as above average. Long-term residents require hospital transfers at a rate of just 0.76 per 1,000 resident days, which outpaces the Tennessee average of 1.58 by 52%, and emergency department visits trend at 1.07 per 1,000 days, marking a 32% positive variance from the state benchmark. For short-term rehabilitation individuals, the rate of falls resulting in major trauma stands at an exemplary 0.0%, entirely outperforming the state baseline of 0.8%. Furthermore, 56.1% of short-stay residents achieve or surpass their anticipated self-care capabilities at the time of discharge, a 5% improvement over state metrics, while readmission rates mirror the Tennessee norm at 21.6%. These metrics collectively indicate that those finishing their restorative programs experience strong physical recovery.

Conversely, personnel hours consistently track below state medians across nearly every department. Registered nurse contact averages 25 minutes per resident daily, which sits 32% lower than the Tennessee benchmark of 37 minutes, while licensed practical nurse hours at 57 minutes and certified nursing assistant contact at 2 hours and 1 minute fall 12% and 6% below their corresponding state baselines. Additionally, combined weekend nursing care tracks at 3 hours and 12 minutes, running 4% below the state standard, while registered nurse coverage on weekends averages 23 minutes, matching the statewide norm of 24 minutes. Physical therapist contact is documented at 3 minutes per resident daily, a 40% reduction from the Tennessee average of 5 minutes, which stands as a noteworthy detail for families investigating post-acute therapeutic care. The community also supports a daily occupancy of 111.8 residents within its 121 certified beds.

Regulatory records show that the most recent evaluation by the Tennessee Department of Health took place on July 11, 2024. According to ProPublica’s CMS deficiency database, findings from recent review periods involved quality assurance programming, general property administration, dietary procurement, infection control and prevention measures, resident rights protections, and medication error minimization. This spectrum spans daily clinical operations, sanitary practices, and corporate oversight, contributing to a 1-star health inspection sub-rating, the lowest federal tier. However, no financial penalties or payment suspensions are cited.

Spring Meadows Health & Rehabilitation provides a localized Montgomery County choice for older adults whose primary focus is securing an environment with proven success in preventing long-term hospitalizations and short-term accidental falls. However, families are encouraged to discuss the 1-star health inspection sub-rating with management.
