Mostly long-term care residents
Most residents stay for extended periods and receive ongoing daily care.
Most new residents arrive under Medicaid (56% of admissions), and a typical Medicaid stay runs around 8 - 9 months.
Cavalier Healthcare of Trussville is a 125-bed nursing home on Watterson Parkway in Trussville, Alabama. The facility operates at a 73 percent occupancy rate, leaving consistent room openings for immediate or planned admissions. Stays here average around 297 days, an extended timeline that shows daily operations lean heavily toward permanent residential care while maintaining dedicated resources for short-term post-hospital therapy.
The daily floor routine relies on a 24-hour nursing team that delivers an average of 3 hours and 12 minutes of direct, hands-on attention to each resident daily. This crew handles regular medical monitoring, complex care needs, and short-term physical rehabilitation. For visiting family members, the surrounding neighborhood carries a walk score of 3, meaning the property sits in a quiet, car-dependent area where a vehicle is necessary for all travel and external errands.
Health department surveys have previously flagged compliance concerns centered on care-delivery protocols, specifically the accurate documentation of ordered medical treatments and strict adherence to infection-prevention standards. Reviewing these past inspection records with the administrative staff is a practical way to evaluate their current quality assurance steps.
Interested individuals can contact the admissions office to check on specific room layouts or request intake checklists. The front office can also coordinate stay coverage through traditional Medicare, state Medicaid, or standard private pay, and walk you through available comfort setups like respite care configurations.
Cavalier Healthcare of Trussville is administered by Becky Stocker.
In Alabama, the Department of Public Health, Bureau of Health Provider Standards conducts unannounced surveys to ensure facilities meet state licensing and federal certification safety standards.
