Bluegrass Care & Rehabilitation

Bluegrass Care & Rehabilitation sits as a skilled nursing and personal care facility with 124 certified beds and about 110 people living there most days, and they try to give folks a safe, home-like place that feels welcoming, as well as offering a wide range of care options, and they go around the clock with 24/7 nursing, physician services, psychiatry, and even psychoanalysis for folks who need more specialized support. There's a big focus on rehabilitation services, so people who need help after surgery or an illness can get lots of therapy, and there's also assisted living, cognitive care choices, dialysis, and home care services, along with secured units for those who need extra safety. They run things under the Signature Care® banner, with special programs like ExceleratedCARE for skilled nursing and post-acute help, plus a TransitionalCARE system to prevent people from needing to go back to the hospital. Folks can join life enrichment and activity programs, enjoy varied amenities, and take advantage of clinical services, medication support, and even spiritual programs if they want them. Staffing-wise, the nurse turnover is at 35.5%, which is lower than what the state usually sees, but nurse hours per resident, at 3.44, sit below the state's average, which is 3.9 hours. The place is run for profit and comes under Signature Healthcare, and they try to run things with family values and a resident-centered approach, but like most places, there have been some issues. Reports from August 2024 show 19 total deficiencies, including five in the most recent inspection, two related to infection control, and citations for not labeling and storing drugs right and not properly notifying residents before moving or discharging them, though reports say there wasn't actual harm, just the potential for problems. The records show a steady effort to give folks compassionate care and comfort, but the facts also point out areas that still need close attention, especially when it comes to infection control and following federal rules.
