The rooms come in private and semiprivate options, have televisions, emergency response systems, high-speed wireless internet, and cable TV, and people can spend time in landscaped courtyards, a recreation center, and a beauty and barber shop, or they can join in on activities, social events, and even gardening, so there's a way for everybody to stay active and keep in touch with friends, whether they're coming in for short stays or longer-term care. Nursing staff and the team-including specialized physicians, nurse practitioners, a clinical social worker, and a dietician-work together for a well-rounded approach to care, and the staff also help with day-to-day needs like bathing, grooming, getting dressed, and meal preparations, plus there's help with medication, wound care, pain management, and counseling if needed, with support for people living with Alzheimer's disease too. Meals are served in a restaurant-style dining room, and a chef prepares food that meets different dietary needs, making sure residents eat well. The rehabilitation center is fully set up for therapy, so whether it's recovering strength after surgery or learning new skills after an accident or illness, skilled therapists offer programs for joint replacement, stroke, wound care, pain, and even amputee care, and they have both inpatient and outpatient options, which means people can keep getting therapy after leaving the facility, if they want. Housekeeping and laundry services help keep things tidy, and a private event room gives residents a spot to gather for special occasions. NHC Healthcare - Murfreesboro teams up with other health professionals, focuses on community outreach, and offers emergency care as needed, so residents and families know care continues if things get tough.
