Aspire Physical Recovery Center at Cahaba River provides nursing-home care with round-the-clock licensed nursing staff and on-site physical therapy. Residents receive individualized rehabilitation plans designed to improve mobility, strength, and balance after surgery, illness, or injury. Therapy sessions are coordinated with attending physicians to track progress and adjust goals. Wound care, IV therapy, and ongoing monitoring of vital signs are part of the medical services available, ensuring that complex health needs are met without leaving the facility.
Beyond skilled nursing and therapy, the center assists residents with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and medication management. Care teams develop and update personalized care plans, involving family members when appropriate. Social services staff help with discharge planning and coordination of outside medical appointments. The facility also offers transportation for medically necessary outings and maintains an on-site pharmacy service for timely prescription fulfillment.
Accommodations include a mix of private and shared rooms equipped with adjustable hospital beds, accessible bathrooms, and basic furnishings. Some rooms offer added conveniences such as in-room climate controls or cable television, but not all accommodations have all these features. Housekeeping and linen services are provided regularly, and maintenance staff address room repairs as needed.
Dining services emphasize nutrition that supports recovery and ongoing health. Three meals a day are prepared under the guidance of a registered dietitian, and therapeutic diets can be arranged for conditions such as diabetes or hypertension. Meals are served in a communal dining area to encourage social interaction, with in-room tray service available for residents who are unable to leave their rooms. Not all menu options are available at every meal, and special requests depend on dietary guidelines and ingredient availability.
Residents have access to an activity center where staff schedule group exercises, recreation programs, and educational sessions. Participation is voluntary and activities vary by day, giving residents choices that complement their therapy schedules and personal interests.
