Cedar Creek Post Acute is a nursing home in Mount Juliet, Tennessee, offering short-term rehabilitation services, long-term skilled nursing care, and respite support. Operated by Mount Juliet SNF Healthcare, LLC under the PACS Group network, the community has been in operation since 1994 with 106 licensed beds.
Services include physical, occupational, speech, and respiratory therapies delivered through an on-site rehabilitation gym, alongside 24-hour licensed nursing coverage and certified nursing assistant support. Amenities include private bathrooms with showers, shared living spaces, and outdoor courtyards. Its location near TriStar Summit Medical Center and within convenient reach of Nashville makes it a practical option for families seeking post-hospital rehabilitation or ongoing nursing care in Wilson County.
Occupancy levels remain close to Tennessee averages, with approximately 88 residents in residence. On the other hand, licensed practical nurse coverage exceeds state benchmarks, and physical therapy staffing significantly surpasses Tennessee averages, which aligns with the community’s emphasis on rehabilitation services. However, registered nurse hours and weekend nursing coverage fall below the state average. Nurse turnover is also notably better than the statewide average, an important consideration for families evaluating continuity of care and staffing stability.
Inspection and enforcement history require careful attention, with the most recent standard inspection in July 2025 identifying five deficiencies. These involve care planning, infection control, resident notifications, environmental maintenance, and accident prevention, which were categorized at lower severity levels without immediate jeopardy citations. However, more serious concerns emerged during an April 2024 complaint investigation, which cited immediate-jeopardy deficiencies related to abuse prevention and infection control failures.
Earlier inspection history also reflects recurring regulatory concerns, as surveys conducted in 2020 and 2021 identified deficiencies involving pharmacy management, dietary oversight, staffing, care planning, infection control, CPR procedures, and IV administration practices. The community was also placed under CMS special monitoring between August 2024 and July 2025 because of a documented pattern of quality concerns, which were all corrected.
Cedar Creek Post Acute is best for those seeking short-term rehabilitation close to Nashville-area hospitals, particularly those who value strong therapy staffing and convenient geographic access. However, families exploring long-term placement should carefully review the community’s recent inspection history, enforcement actions, and staff retention trends before making a decision.
The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Based on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.
Daily nursing hours per resident by staff type, reported to CMS. Higher is generally better — compare this facility to state and national averages to see where staffing stands.
This home is ranked 71st out of 177 homes in Tennessee for nurse hours. Total adjusted nursing hours per resident per day, combining RN, LPN, and aide time. CMS adjusts this for case-mix so facilities can be fairly compared.
| Staff type | Hours / Day / Resident | vs state avg |
|---|---|---|
|
Registered Nurse (RN)
RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.
| 36m per day | ▼ 3% State avg: 37m per day · National avg: 41m per day |
|
LPN / LVN
Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care.
| 1h 20m per day | ▲ 23% State avg: 1h 5m per day · National avg: 52m per day |
|
Nurse Aide
Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.
| 2h 21m per day | ▲ 9% State avg: 2h 9m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day |
|
Weekend Total Nursing
Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.
| 3h 37m per day | ▲ 8% State avg: 3h 21m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day |
|
Physical Therapist
Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation.
| 7m per day | ▲ 38% State avg: 5m per day · National avg: 4m per day |
|
Weekend RN
Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.
| 29m per day | ▲ 19% State avg: 24m per day · National avg: 28m per day |
Average number of days residents stay at this facility, based on CMS cost report data. Shorter stays often reflect post-acute or rehab care; longer stays reflect long-term care.

Based on CMS SNF Cost Report for fiscal year ending in 12/2023.
Net patient revenue — what the home actually collects for resident care, after contractual allowances, bad debt and discounts are subtracted from its gross charges (CMS cost report, Worksheet G-3). It covers resident care only; money the home earns from other sources is shown separately as "Other income."
Net patient income: net patient revenue minus the home's total operating expenses. A positive figure means it earns more from resident care than it spends to deliver it; a negative figure means the opposite. It excludes non-operating "other income."

Staff salaries plus wage-related costs — benefits such as payroll taxes, health insurance and retirement — from the home's own accounting records (CMS cost report, Worksheet A). Contract or agency labor is counted separately, under other operating costs.
