Re-hospitalization and ED visit rates for short-stay residents also modestly outperform the state. Long-stay quality measures are rated significantly above average overall, though the hospitalization rate for long-stay residents at 2.92 per 1,000 resident days is 85 percent above the 1.58 Tennessee average, a figure families considering long-stay placement should discuss with facility leadership. The staffing profile is mixed. LPN hours reach 1 hour 23 minutes per resident daily, 26 percent above Tennessee’s average, providing strong routine bedside coverage.

The community provides private and semi-private rooms alongside dining services, housekeeping, beauty services, and organized social and recreational programming led by a certified activity director.
Families should request the latest inspection summary from the Tennessee Department of Health or facility leadership and ask about RN availability and weekend clinical oversight protocols before proceeding. Discussions about long-stay placement must also be addressed with facility leadership.
