Memphis Jewish Home & Rehab sits on Bazeberry Road in Cordova, Tennessee, and has served seniors in the Memphis area since 1927, always keeping dignity, compassion, and professionalism at the center of its care. This not-for-profit nursing home has a strong Jewish character but welcomes people of all faiths, keeping Kosher meals and holiday celebrations, and it's part of the Association of Jewish Aging Services. There are 160 skilled nursing beds, an adult day center, and a full range of services for older adults, including assisted living, hospital-level emergency care, home care, long-term nursing care, and both inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation. Families find all sorts of therapies available-cardiopulmonary rehab, orthopedics rehab after surgeries or broken bones, stroke rehab with detailed recovery plans, cognitive rehab for stroke or dementia, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy-and doctors, nurses, and staff keep a close eye on each person, meeting with family regularly to look at progress and concerns.
The staff includes registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, certified nursing assistants, restorative nurses, and professionals in social work and dietary fields, all working around the clock. Care plans are personal, with teams adapting them as needs change, offering help for people with chronic or terminal illness, disabilities, or those needing hospice or respite care. The place has a warm, supportive environment with air conditioning, wheelchair accessibility, parking, housekeeping, laundry, restrooms, a lobby, and outdoor spaces. Activities and therapeutic recreation get planned to suit different interests, and there's a comfortable, bright feeling through shared spaces. People get evaluated by different therapy disciplines when they first arrive to see what exactly they need, and every service focuses on patient comfort and recovery.
