Is Delta Blues Health & Rehabilitation a good nursing home? Reviews, ratings and inspection record

There are no official resident reviews of nursing homes: Medicare's Care Compare publishes inspections, staffing and quality data instead. Here is what that record shows for Delta Blues Health & Rehabilitation as of October 2026.

CMS rates it 2 out of 5 stars overall, below the Tennessee average of 3.1. Inspectors issued 8 citations in the last three years. CMS imposed 1 penalty, including $8,281 in fines, in that time. For short-term rehab patients CMS rates quality 3 out of 5; for long-term residents, 5 out of 5. Those results differ a lot, so ask about the unit your family member would be on.

Online reviews from families and residents are on Google Maps and other sites; they reflect individual experiences and aren't checked by CMS. The full inspection reports, including what inspectors observed, are on Medicare Care Compare.

Staffing

Nursing staff spend about 3.07 hours per resident per day at Delta Blues Health & Rehabilitation, below the Tennessee median of 3.66 (US median: 3.72).

Paying for care at Delta Blues Health & Rehabilitation: Medicare and Medicaid

Delta Blues Health & Rehabilitation is certified for both Medicare and Medicaid. Medicare Part A can cover a short skilled-nursing or rehab stay here after a qualifying hospital stay of at least three inpatient days (observation days don't count), for up to 100 days per benefit period. Medicaid can pay for long-term care for residents who meet Tennessee's income and asset rules. Being certified doesn't guarantee a Medicaid bed is open, so ask whether the home accepts residents whose Medicaid application is still pending.
