Bellwood Assisted Living in Lebanon, Tennessee, offers a single level of care—assisted living. Residents receive 24-hour support with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, and medication management. A licensed nurse oversees care plans, monitors vital signs, and coordinates with outside physicians to adjust treatments as needed. The community maintains an on-call medical team for urgent concerns and equips each apartment with an emergency response system so help can be summoned quickly.
Beyond the basic assisted-living services, Bellwood provides on-site physical, occupational, and speech therapy through visiting rehabilitation partners. Scheduled transportation is available for medical appointments, and staff members manage prescription refills and pharmacy deliveries. Preventive programs such as fall-risk assessments, wellness checks, and chronic-condition monitoring are part of the regular routine. Short-term respite stays can be arranged when space permits, and hospice coordination is offered for residents who require it.
Accommodation options include private studios and companion suites, each with a bathroom fitted with grab bars and a walk-in shower. Units feature individual climate controls, basic cable, and an emergency call device; some apartments add a kitchenette or a view of the landscaped courtyard. Weekly housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance are included, but not all accommodations have all the features mentioned. Pets are allowed. It's a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
Residents receive three meals daily in a communal dining room, with menus planned by a dietitian to meet general nutritional guidelines and physician-ordered diets. Entrée choices accommodate low-sodium, diabetic, and mechanical-soft needs, and snacks are available throughout the day. Meal service can be delivered to the apartment temporarily when a resident is ill or recovering from a procedure. Special events such as holiday dinners and cookouts are scheduled regularly to add variety without deviating from the facility’s standard dietary protocols.
