Owned by Sherry Norvell, Signature Healthcare of Ridgely Rehab & Wellness Center is a skilled nursing home in Ridgely, Tennessee. Located at 117 North Main Street in a town setting, it serves patients recuperating from illness or injury, plus those needing ongoing skilled care. Accepted are Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, giving families numerous ways to fund short-term rehabilitation and longer-term nursing care stays. Operating for 33 years, the 100-bed facility averages a stay length of about 136 days. This mix reflects occupants healing from surgery or hospitalization alongside people who stay for ongoing medical support. Current occupancy sits at 61 percent, with 61 residents in place.
Daily nursing support averages 3 hours 50 minutes per resident, providing consistent hands-on care all day. The staffing model comprises registered nurses, nurse aides, and LPN/LVN staff working in coordinated daily shifts. Clinically, the center offers rehabilitation services and has developed specialized programming in dementia care. This can be valuable for families navigating memory loss and behavioral changes in a structured environment. Care navigation and clinical services help residents and families understand treatment options and next recovery steps. Beyond clinical care, the community emphasizes life quality through amenities like satellite television, concierge services, and an on-site chapel. Residents can join elder vacations and community involvement activities, and the home arranges transportation to events and outings. The design of small neighborhoods within the facility creates a more intimate setting than a large open campus. Ridgely has a Walk Score of 41, meaning the area and a few nearby services are somewhat walkable, though most trips involve transportation. Visiting family members may find the calmer, small-town setting a serene environment for care and recovery.
Signature Healthcare of Ridgely Rehab & Wellness Center is administered by Lori Moore.
