Emerald Trace on Turkeyfoot

Emerald Trace on Turkeyfoot sits on Turkeyfoot Road in Elsmere, Kentucky, and offers many types of care for older adults, whether someone needs help for a short while after an illness, wants to regain strength with therapy, or needs long-term support. The staff knows how to care for people with memory loss, including Alzheimer's and dementia, and they also help folks who need palliative or hospice care, so they can focus on comfort when things get tough. People can choose between private or shared rooms in their assisted living setting, and the building's modern amenities are meant to make residents feel comfortable each day, with choices that fit different tastes and needs. Skilled nursing care is on hand for everyday health concerns, and staff provide personal care, too, such as help with bathing, dressing, and medication. The facility runs physical, occupational, and speech therapy both for people staying long-term and for folks coming in temporarily from the community. Families and residents will notice the facility puts effort into making people feel welcome and connected, keeping everyone engaged with others and with what's going on around them, so it doesn't feel lonely. There's disability parking for anyone who needs it, and onsite services help everyone, including visitors, find support. The not-for-profit approach lets residents have a say in their living experience, and the services keep up with their changing needs over time. The staff aims to help each person keep as much independence as they can, and they work closely with doctors and families to make sure everyone's care fits their health, their recovery, or their comfort level as things change.
