Where do Brookdale Goodlettsville residents go if they need nursing home care?

An ACLF cannot provide 24-hour skilled nursing, so a resident who needs it moves to a nursing home. 2 CMS-certified nursing homes serve the Goodlettsville area, the largest being Alta Heights Post Acute with 90 certified beds.

Ask Brookdale Goodlettsville which of these it most often transfers residents to, whether it holds a resident's apartment during a short rehab stay, and how much notice it gives before a permanent move.

What level of care can Brookdale Goodlettsville provide under its license?

As an ACLF, Brookdale Goodlettsville may provide room, board, personal care, medication administration and limited intermittent nursing; its licensed mix is 55 general assisted living beds.

Tennessee's ACLF rule allows outside home health or hospice to serve residents, but a resident who needs continuous skilled nursing generally has to move to a nursing home. Because this community has no secured unit, a resident who begins to wander would usually need to move. Ask for the community's written admission and discharge criteria before signing.
