Nhc Healthcare, Franklin operates as a skilled nursing home, providing 24-hour nursing oversight for residents who require ongoing medical attention. The facility maintains an on-site rehabilitation team that delivers physical therapy for those recovering from surgery, illness, or injury, helping residents regain strength and mobility without leaving the building. Short-term respite care is also available, giving family caregivers a break while ensuring the individual receives professional supervision, medication administration, and clinical monitoring.

In addition to these primary services, the care team assists with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and toileting, tailoring support to each resident’s care plan. Licensed nurses handle medication management, coordinate with outside physicians, and track vital signs to detect changes in condition early. Respite stays can transition to longer placements if needs change, and the staff works with families to update care goals, therapy schedules, and discharge planning when appropriate.

Resident accommodations range from private to shared rooms, all designed to support mobility equipment and nursing interventions. Standard housekeeping is included to keep living spaces tidy, and several rooms are situated near landscaped outdoor areas where residents can sit or stroll as medical orders allow. Not every accommodation offers the same combination of layouts or proximity to outdoor spaces, so families are encouraged to review specific room options during a visit.

Dining services feature three daily meals prepared by culinary staff who follow physician-ordered diets. Menu planning covers common clinical needs such as low-sodium or diabetic choices, and texture modifications are available for residents with swallowing difficulties. Meals are typically served in a central dining room to encourage social interaction, though tray service to the resident’s room can be arranged when necessary.

Residents have access to an activity center that hosts scheduled programs, group clubs that bring together people with shared interests, and a library and computer lounge for reading or internet use. Health and wellness programs—such as exercise classes or educational sessions on chronic disease management—round out the service mix, offering structured opportunities for engagement beyond direct medical care.
