Jane Todd Crawford Memorial

Jane Todd Crawford Memorial, also known as Jane Todd Crawford Hospital, sits in Greensburg, Kentucky, and has a sign that reminds people of its name and legacy, and people see that it links to nonprofit groups and charities trying to help the community, even if nobody seems to know much about who Jane Todd Crawford really was or why her name's on the building, but you sure can spot her name all over the place. The facility has different amenities for seniors, and you'll see spaces for residents to gather and talk indoors, along with group events or devotional activities to keep folks busy, whether those happen inside or at other locations to keep people's bodies and spirits active. There's a staff that helps with assisted living needs such as bathing, dressing, or giving medicine, and there are special programs for people with memory problems, like Alzheimer's or other types of dementia, to help reduce confusion and keep people safe from wandering away. The hospital part of the place has 23 beds and an emergency room with three patient rooms, which can stretch to five when things get busy, and upstairs is a physician's call room with a bed, desk, Internet, computer, television, refrigerator, and a private shower bathroom so doctors can get some rest when they're on call. The facility includes a cafeteria open from 8 in the morning to 6 in the evening where chefs and meal planners work on nutritious meals to make sure food tastes good and is healthy. Healthcare support extends to non-ambulatory care, help for people with diabetes, and care for incontinence, and the staff reads all X-rays and films immediately, either right there or by sending them to a radiologist using teleradiology. When needed, there are plans in place to transfer residents to bigger hospitals in places like Campbellsville, Glasgow, Elizabethtown, or Louisville. Jane Todd Crawford Memorial also has ties to several clinics including Green County Primary Care, Jane Todd Specialty Clinic, and Jane Todd IOP for more specialized or ongoing care. They offer things like a Swing Bed Program for recovery between hospital care and home; kidney dialysis; respiratory treatments and therapies for physical, speech, and occupational needs; along with a pharmacy right on site. Besides all that, the memorial aims to serve the local community with many resources to help seniors and anyone needing medical or rehabilitation care.
