Services and Amenities Services and programs at East Tennessee Health Care are designed with the resident in mind and include a care plan tailored to the well-being of each individual.  As part of our comprehensive restorative nursing program we offer nutritional and appetizing meals prepared under the supervision of a registered dietician. Weekly church services are held at the facility, and many of our residents participate in the activities of our garden club. Special activities are a major focus for our staff, and these include regular visits by a country music band.

While many of our residents require only general nursing care, we also provide such complex medical services including cardiac care, diabetic care, dialysis support, IV therapy, pain management, respiratory services, stroke care and wound management.

Therapy is a major part of daily life at East Tennessee Health Care, as we strive to help each resident reach his or her maximum potential and, if possible, return to a more independent lifestyle. We offer:

• Physical therapy: - Programs to improve functional mobility, strength, coordination to increase independence with bed mobility, transfers and ambulation.
• Occupational therapy: -  Programs to improve functional activities such as eating, bathing, dressing and cooking.
• Speech therapy: - Programs to improve functional communication and swallowing skills.
