Community Care Of Rutherford in Murfreesboro operates as a nursing-home provider. The facility offers 24-hour skilled nursing, medication management, wound care, and other services typical of a licensed nursing center. Short-term respite stays are available for caregivers who need a temporary break while ensuring their family member continues to receive professional monitoring and clinical support.
Beyond direct nursing and respite care, the facility coordinates therapy services, including physical, occupational, and speech therapy, through on-site or contracted professionals. Regular assessments guide care plans, and a registered dietitian reviews menus to align meals with physician-ordered diets. Transportation to medical appointments is arranged when necessary, and staff help residents and families navigate insurance and discharge planning.
Rooms vary in size and layout, and not all accommodations have every feature, but most offer access to landscaped grounds, outdoor sitting areas, and communal gardens where residents can spend time outside under supervision. Basic housekeeping, linen service, and maintenance are provided, and Wi-Fi is available in common areas with limited in-room coverage depending on location within the building.
The dining program supplies three daily meals plus snacks, served in a shared dining hall with staff assistance for those who need help eating. Menus rotate and can be modified for therapeutic diets such as low-sodium or diabetic. Families can request meal reviews with dietary staff to ensure nutritional goals are met.
Residents can spend free time in the activity center, join clubs and small community groups, participate in scheduled arts and crafts, or play bingo. A library and computer lounge offers reading materials and internet access, and planned social outings give residents a chance to visit local attractions when clinically appropriate.
