Nursing homes across Davidson County, Tennessee, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
Woodcrest at Blakeford sits in Nashville with 83 certified beds and a nonprofit owner. Nurse staffing runs 4.66 hours per resident day, about 21% above the national average of 3.86, and that shows in a four-star staffing rating. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops roughly 11% below the home's own weekday level. Annual turnover is 51.2%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, so even with good raw hours, some of the faces change often. The current record shows 13 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but one abuse-related citation. A five-star quality measure rating and an inspection dated March 2026 round out a home that's strong on care measures with a few real caveats.
The Health Center At Richland Place is a 107-bed nonprofit home in Nashville with staffing that beats the national average, 4.34 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86, though weekends run about 12% thinner than weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 42.1%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The trouble shows up in inspections: 19 deficiencies on the current record, five at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a $56,378 fine and a two-star health inspection rating. Quality measures score five stars, but that reflects resident care metrics, not how well the building has been kept in compliance.
Nhc Place At The Trace runs 4.08 nurse hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average, though weekend coverage drops roughly 10% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 54.5%, nearly nine points above the national figure, which matters because new aides cycle through quickly. The current record shows 14 deficiencies, none rising to harm or jeopardy and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was February 2025. Quality measures score well, inspections land in the middle, and staffing holds up on paper. It's a for-profit limited liability company with 90 beds. The numbers describe a stable home with a churn problem worth asking about directly.
The Meadows runs on thinner staffing than most homes nationally, 3.48 nurse hours per resident day against an average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 12% below its own weekday coverage. Staff turnover of 55.2% sits well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters because caregivers who leave take familiarity with residents with them. Its inspection record shows 16 deficiencies, none at the harm level but four tied to abuse, and the last full inspection was in September 2022, so that picture is getting old. Quality measures score well; the staffing and inspection side is where the drag comes from.
Life Care Center of Hickory Woods is a for-profit, LLC-owned home with 124 certified beds in Antioch. Its 4.00 nurse staffing hours per resident day sit slightly above the national average of 3.86, but weekends run about 13% thinner than weekdays, and annual turnover of 55.6% is roughly ten points above the national figure of 45.8%. On the clinical side, the numbers are stronger: a 4/5 health inspection rating and 5/5 on quality measures, with 13 deficiencies on record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. The most recent inspection was November 19, 2025. What drags the overall picture down is consistency rather than any single serious failure, steady care when fully staffed, thinner coverage on weekends.
Heartland runs 3.36 nurse hours per resident day, about 13% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 8% below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters because aides and nurses are thinnest exactly when families visit and problems surface.
The quality measure score is strong, but 54.8% annual turnover means more than half the staff leaves each year, well above the 45.8% national average, so consistent care is hard to build. The record shows 23 deficiencies, including one at harm level and one abuse-related, plus $7,901 in fines. The last inspection was April 2026. A corporation owns the place, so staffing decisions answer to a bottom line.
Life Care Center of Old Hickory Village runs 124 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the weak spot: 3.53 nurse hours per resident day sits about 9% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 18% below the home's own weekday coverage. Turnover lands at 49.4%, above the 45.8% national figure, which matters when consistent caregivers know the residents. The health inspection record shows 16 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was September 2022, so that record is getting old. Fines total $8,788 across one penalty. The 5/5 quality measure rating stands out against the 2/5 staffing and inspection marks; ask what's driving that quality score.
West Meade Place runs 120 certified beds as a for-profit partnership, and its overall nurse staffing sits at 3.98 hours per resident day, roughly 3% above the national average of 3.86. That headline number comes with a catch: weekend staffing drops about 12% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover is 62.6% against a national average of 45.8%, so the people providing that care change often. Inspections look steady, a 4/5 health inspection rating, most recently surveyed March 13, 2026, with 17 deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level but two tied to abuse. The 5/5 quality measure rating reflects resident outcomes; the 2/5 staffing rating reflects what CMS actually thinks of the hours and retention.
Stoneridge runs 38 beds in Goodlettsville under for-profit limited liability ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice: 3.40 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 18% below the home's own weekday coverage. Fifteen deficiencies sit on the current record, though none reached harm or jeopardy level and none involved abuse, and the last inspection was in March 2026. The split in CMS ratings tells the story, a 3 for health inspections but a 1 for quality measures, meaning the day-to-day care processes the government tracks aren't measuring up even where the inspection itself went reasonably.
Trevecca Center runs 240 beds in Nashville under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is the weak spot: 3.47 nurse hours per resident day sits about 10% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 13% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover lands at 48.7%, a bit above the 45.8% national figure. The good news is that its 14 deficiencies include nothing at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, and the last inspection was in June 2023. Quality measures score well; staffing is where families should ask hard questions about who's actually on the floor on a Saturday.
Green Hills Center runs 4.01 nurse staffing hours per resident day, a bit above the 3.86 national average, but weekends drop roughly 10% below its own weekday coverage. The bigger concern is stability: 61.2% annual turnover against a 45.8% national rate means many of the people providing that care are new or on their way out. Its current record carries 39 deficiencies, including 7 at the harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse, with $16,801 in fines. The last inspection was February 2025, so this is a recent picture, and it's a for-profit corporate home where strong quality scores sit alongside weak inspection and staffing ratings.
Creekside Center runs 139 beds in Madison under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers pull in two directions. Nurse staffing sits at 3.73 hours per resident day, slightly under the national figure of 3.86, but weekends drop about 18% below the home's own weekday coverage, that's the gap families notice when they visit on a Sunday. Staff turnover is the harder fact: 64.9% a year against a national average of 45.8%, meaning roughly two-thirds of the nursing staff leaves annually. Inspections look solid (4 of 5 stars, 8 deficiencies, none at harm level, last visit July 2023), and quality measures score high, but steady caregivers matter more than a good survey day.
Nashville Center for Rehabilitation and Healing runs 142 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing averages 4.07 hours per resident day, slightly above the national figure of 3.86. That headline number hides a catch: weekends run about 20% leaner than weekdays, and annual turnover sits at 72.8% against a national average of 45.8%, so the people providing care change often. The current inspection record carries 30 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, though none reached the harm or jeopardy level; the last inspection was March 2023. CMS rates its quality measures 5 out of 5 but staffing 1 out of 5, a split worth asking about directly.
Whites Creek Wellness runs 127 beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing is the number that stands out, 3.21 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 12% thinner than weekdays. That shortfall shows up in the federal staffing rating of 1 out of 5, and annual turnover of 66.1% means well over half the nursing staff leaves every year, compared with 45.8% nationally. The inspection record carries 18 deficiencies, four tied to abuse, though none at the harm or jeopardy level; the last survey was March 2026. Quality measures score 5 out of 5, so ask how that squares with so few hands on deck.
Alta Heights Post Acute has 90 certified beds and a for-profit LLC owner. Its total nurse staffing of 4.44 hours per resident day sits about 15% above the national average of 3.86, and weekend staffing holds slightly above its own weekday level, that part looks steady. The problem is staff turnover, which runs at 66.3% against a national average of 45.8%; that many caregivers leaving each year makes it hard to keep care consistent. The current record shows 18 deficiencies, two of them at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a health inspection star rating of 2 out of 5.
Bethany Center runs 3.49 nurse hours per resident day, about 10% under the national average, and the gap widens on weekends, staffing drops roughly 18% below its own weekday level. Annual turnover sits at 62.1%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents are, more often than not, new to the building. That combination shows up in the staffing star rating: 1 out of 5.
The current inspection record lists 12 deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, one tied to abuse. The last inspection was April 2025, so the record is recent, not stale.
One bright spot: the quality measure rating is 4 out of 5, meaning the clinical numbers CMS tracks look better than the staffing does. For a for-profit LLC with 180 beds, the question worth asking on a tour is who's actually on the floor at 7 p.m. on a Saturday.
Antioch Tn Opco has a split record that's worth reading carefully. The clinical quality numbers look good on paper, but the staffing rating sits at the bottom of the federal scale, meaning residents are getting too few hours of direct care per day compared to what CMS expects. Inspectors have cited 28 deficiencies, ten of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way, and three tied to abuse. The federal government has placed this home in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for the small share of homes with a pattern of persistent problems, and fines totaling $293,189 back that up. Ownership is a for-profit corporation, and the last full inspection was in August 2023.
Eaton Creek Post Acute has more direct-care nursing hours than most homes, 5.04 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and it holds that level through the weekend, which many places don't. The problems sit elsewhere. Thirty-five deficiencies are on the current record, twelve of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way and five tied to abuse, with $122,242 in federal fines across three cases. Staff turnover runs 52.9% a year, above the 45.8% norm, and CMS has placed the home in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for the most persistent poor performers. The last inspection was August 30, 2023.
The Mckendree Post Acute & Rehabilitation is a 180-bed nonprofit home in Hermitage that CMS has placed in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a persistent record of poor inspections. The numbers explain why: 37 deficiencies on the current record, including four at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, plus a single fine of $252,242. Staffing sits at 3.50 nurse hours per resident day, about 9% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 12% thinner than weekdays. Annual turnover is 58% against a national 45.8%. Its last inspection was October 2023. If you're considering this home, ask what's changed since then.
Advanced Health Care of Nashville runs 49 beds under a for-profit limited liability company, and its nurse staffing sits at 5.25 hours per resident day, roughly 36% above the national average of 3.86. That part looks strong on paper. What sits underneath is harder to ignore: five deficiencies on the current record, three of them at the harm or jeopardy level, and all five abuse-related. CMS has fined this home six times for a total of $125,508, and the last inspection was October 2022, so the record you're reading is nearly three years old. Weekend staffing also drops about 21% below its own weekday level, meaning the hours aren't spread evenly across the week.
