Belcourt Terrace Nursing Home sits at 1710 Belcourt Avenue in Nashville, Tennessee, and serves as a supportive place for older adults needing help with daily living or nursing support. The facility has 49 certified beds and currently houses about 39 residents, keeping things peaceful and not too crowded at an 80% occupancy rate, and folks can choose between private or shared rooms. Staff-registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nurse aides-cover about 1.66 staff hours per resident daily, offering nursing, rehab, and assisted living services. Residents get help with things like bathing or getting dressed, as well as memory care and support for medical needs, including care for pressure sores, catheters, or incontinence, and staff check regularly on mobility or changes in health and mood, with about 9% of residents getting support for depression or anxiety and 21% needing more help over time.
People also have access to a senior living counselor who offers information and support, and there are resources to help residents and families understand their choices. The nursing home gives out flu and pneumococcal shots as part of long-term care, and most residents receive these vaccinations each year. The community runs health inspections and publishes nurse staffing and quality reports but does not take part in the Quality Indicator Survey or have a federal Special Focus Facility label. The facility stands on its own, not within a hospital, and there's no continuing care retirement community on site, though it does act as a long-term and intermediate care center, serving folks who can't live alone safely but who don't always need the deepest level of skilled nursing care around the clock.
Belcourt Terrace offers several care types and features, such as respite care for short-term stays, memory care for dementia and Alzheimer's, senior home care courses, and training opportunities for caregivers, including Medicaid and dementia certification programs. The team works to create a comfortable, friendly atmosphere and keeps things lively with activities and programs that have won awards for friendliness and keeping people active and engaged. There's a resident and family council for sharing concerns or ideas, while housekeeping, laundry, and dining services help keep daily life running smoothly, with one or two chef-planned meals served each day. Belcourt Terrace also supports families and caregivers with resources like a blog and caregiver training, and it invites prospective residents and their families to tour the community and meet with staff.
With for-profit, corporate ownership and acceptance of both Medicare and Medicaid, Belcourt Terrace Nursing Home supports seniors needing anything from short-term rehab after surgery to long-term care if their needs grow. The entire building uses sprinklers for safety, and medical and nursing services are always available for those with serious illnesses or disabilities. With regular assessments and personal care plans, Belcourt Terrace works to keep residents comfortable, safe, and connected, whether they're there for independent living, assisted living, nursing or memory care, all within a friendly community that tries to put people first.
