Springfield Heights sits quietly among residential neighborhoods in Springfield, Tennessee, where seniors can choose from independent living, assisted living, memory care, respite care, adult day care, rehabilitation, skilled nursing, and even home health solutions all under one roof, and you'll notice they've kept the building single-story for easier access. Ms. Cecilia Smith leads the staff as Executive Director, and the facility operates with a business license as an LLC and gets support from Americare, which keeps it locally run. Inside, you'll find studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments with Wi-Fi, air conditioning, kitchens, full and accessible tubs, and rooms ranging from 233 to 302 square feet, so folks can pick what fits best for them and their budget, and pets are welcome too. The community believes in Hometown Hospitality™, offering home-cooked, restaurant-style meals, special dining options for low or no sodium or sugar, and guests can join you at the table. There's an active schedule of social, educational, and recreational activities, and people can gather around the fireplaces in common areas, play the piano or organ, watch TV in the lounge, and enjoy arts and crafts or quiet times outside in the patio garden, walking paths, or take part in gardening with raised beds.
The staff have specific training for different care types, especially their Best Friends™ Approach for folks with memory loss, and caregivers are around 24 hours a day for help with things like meal prep, medication, bathing, and getting around. Health and safety get attention, with wheelchair-accessible showers, support for aging in place, diabetic and incontinence care, plus hospice and therapy services if someone is recovering from surgery or dealing with medical issues.
