Alta Heights Post Acute sits about a mile from I-65 in Goodlettsville, Tennessee, and you'll find folks come here for skilled nursing care, wound care, and both short-term rehab and long-term stays, and some people need more complex things like IV therapy, respiratory therapy, or even sub-acute services after they leave the hospital, like tracheotomy care or intravenous feeding. There's a big team here, including Registered Nurses, Certified Nursing Assistants, Restorative Nurse Assistants, and licensed therapists for physical, occupational, and speech needs, and they all work alongside directors for nursing, social services, rehabilitation, and more, making sure every person gets help tailored to their care plan, and there's someone in charge as the Licensed Nursing Home Administrator, plus a Medical Director looks after the medical needs directly. The place offers memory care, hospice care, palliative care for serious illnesses, pain management, and outpatient therapy for things like stroke or joint replacement, so you see many choices whether someone needs rehab, ongoing skilled care, or more comfort-focused services as they get older.
The rooms come in different types and there are spacious common areas and courtyards so people and their families have a nice spot to visit or relax, and in the rehab gym, folks work on mobility and getting stronger, whether they're there a short time or staying longer term. Residents get three meals planned by a Registered Dietitian, with special diets if that's required, and there are lots of activities like music, movies, fitness, games, and even salon services to help people stay social and active. Social workers help families with discharge plans, transportation, and things like setting up Power of Attorney, which makes all the paperwork easier during a tough time, and the Environmental Services team keeps the place clean and safe. They accept 24/7 admissions, and the front desk is open weekdays from 8 to 5 and weekends from 10 to 4, with licensed folks ready to answer questions about what care a person needs or how insurance works.
The facility has both medical and non-medical support, including active adult living, independent living, assisted living, home health care, adult day services, and CNA training. The staff tries to provide care with compassion and respect, and they have won recognition for their high clinical standards. There's an emphasis on helping residents reach their personal goals, improve well-being, and live with dignity. The facility has support from PACS Services for things like consulting and back office so the care teams can focus on residents, and they work with other owners and partners in the area to keep standards high. People can get a virtual photo tour or overview video online if they want to see what the place looks like before visiting in person. The facility displays logos for PACS, Medicare, AHCA, and is linked to the Tennessee Health Care Association. The overall approach aims to provide reliable, quality care and a safe environment that feels as much like home as possible, and they try to help every person recover or live well with whatever health challenges they have.
