Whites Creek Wellness and Rehabilitation Center is a privately owned 127-bed skilled nursing facility in Whites Creek, Tennessee, operated by Whites Creek Holdco LLC. The center serves residents in Davidson County and focuses on short-term rehabilitation and long-term care. It also holds Joint Commission accreditation.
The facility recorded 35 total health citations across seven inspections since 2018, more than double the Tennessee average of 15.4. Five of those citations were classified as critical severity, roughly 3.5 times the state norm. No civil money penalties or payment denials have been issued in the past three years. The 3-star CMS overall rating reflects a staffing sub-rating significantly below the Tennessee average; the Quality Measures sub-rating is 34% above state peers, a meaningful signal for residents prioritizing short-stay clinical outcomes.

Rehabilitation services and memory care are both available on site. The facility also offers a Life Enrichment Program, an outdoor courtyard, and resident garden support for day-to-day engagement, and private suites and semi-private rooms. The center accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.
Whites Creek Wellness and Rehabilitation Center is for residents seeking short-term post-acute rehabilitation or long-term skilled nursing care in Davidson County, with above-average quality-measures performance and capacity available despite sustained high occupancy.

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.

| 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.
| 30m per day | ▼ 20% 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.
| 49m per day | ▼ 25% 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.
| 1h 54m per day | ▼ 12% 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.
| 2h 45m per day | ▼ 18% 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.
| 3m per day | ▼ 36% 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.
| 16m per day | ▼ 32% State avg: 24m per day · National avg: 28m per day |
