Thirty-nine days is the average stay at Life Care Center of Hickory Woods, which tells you most of what you need to know about the population it primarily serves. This is a post-acute setting: a 56-bed skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility in the Hickory Woods Estates neighborhood of Antioch, Tennessee, built for people moving through recovery rather than putting down permanent roots. Fifty-five years in operation at the same address on Murfreesboro Pike.
Currently, 45 of those 56 beds are occupied. Total nursing time runs 4 hours and 1 minute per resident per day, distributed across registered nurses at 45 minutes, LPNs at 1 hour and 15 minutes, and nurse aides at 2 hours and 16 minutes. Staffing runs 24 hours a day. A certified dietitian is on staff, and rehabilitation services are available on-site.
Beyond clinical care, the facility offers more than the basics: a fine dining program, a beauty salon and barber shop, landscaped grounds and courtyards, a library, transportation services, and complimentary wireless internet. A full-time, certified activity director runs a daily schedule, and family and resident councils meet regularly. Pet visitors are welcome. Room options include private and semiprivate configurations, each with a private bathroom.
Payment is accepted through Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, which gives families some flexibility on the financial side. The community re-entry program supports residents who are working toward discharge back to home or another community setting. Alex Butaud is the executive director; Jamie Hercules serves as administrator. The facility is operated by Highland Park Medical Investors, LLC.
For families navigating a post-acute placement in the Nashville area, this is a facility where the facts and the setup align: short average stays, 24-hour nursing coverage, on-site rehab, and a payment mix that accommodates most coverage pathways.
Life Care Center of Hickory Woods is legally operated by Highland Park Medical Investors, LLC, and administrated by Jamie Hercules.
