Viviant Healthcare of Murfreesboro sits at 1530 Middle Tennessee Blvd in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, and it's what folks call a nursing home and skilled nursing facility that's been open since July 9, 2019, offering caregiving, long-term care, short-term rehabilitation, and help for people who need a lot of nursing care. The place gives round-the-clock care, some personalized help, community activities, and healthcare services like physical, occupational, and speech therapy, plus there's a smoke-free environment, courtyard, seating area, and an activity room, with several types of rooms to choose from. The CEO is David Craig while Amy Stearns, who works as the Human Resources Manager, is the main person to contact, and it hasn't been accredited by the BBB.
For those looking closely at safety and staffing, Viviant Healthcare has had some tough years, with several official reports listing deficiencies and investigations into resident safety and quality of care. Between 2014 and May 2024, government inspectors gave the worst health inspection rating for 70 months and awarded the lowest overall rating for 63 months, which led to its place both on the NHAA Watchlist and as a Special Focus Facility, which is the federal government's way of saying a place has a record of serious quality issues, sometimes involving immediate jeopardy and actual harm to residents. Staff levels by certified nursing assistants (CNAs) averaged 2.01 hours per resident per day in 2023, which sits just above what folks consider an unsafe threshold of 2.0 hours, but there were years when things dipped well below that-like in 2021 and 2022, when more than three-fourths of all days had CNA hours under 2.0 hours per resident, and in 2023 that happened on over half the days. Even with notable facility revenues, staffing often stayed below what experts recommend for safety and quality.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services gave Viviant Healthcare a 1 star out of 5 rating for its nursing home services, and the average community rating landed at 5.9 out of 10, which means some folks saw good and some didn't. While the building offers skilled nursing, intermediate care, rehab, an activity room, and a courtyard, there aren't specific details about extras like outdoor spaces, fitness centers, or specialty care programs, and things like parking, entry, and interior features aren't spelled out. The facility offers help for folks who need long-term, compassionate care and support, but its track record in staffing and safety has given it a long-running reputation for serious care issues that families may want to keep in mind.
