Salyersville Nursing & Rehab

Salyersville Nursing & Rehab sits in Salyersville, Kentucky, and offers skilled nursing, long-term care, and various rehabilitation therapies, and folks will find that physical, occupational, speech, and respiratory therapy are all available right on site, since they've got licensed nurses, therapists, and trained health care aides around the clock, with respiratory therapists around any time too, and doctors come in regularly for visits, so you'll always get checked out if you need it. The place takes care of people who need wound care or memory support, helps with daily living, and keeps care plans focused on each person. There's a dedicated program for cutting down on hospital readmissions, plus disease management and early intervention, and people get help with vision and dental care, nutritional and dietary counseling, medication management, and specialty services like respite care too. The staff helps residents regain their abilities after surgery or illness, using new equipment and approaches to rehab, aiming to make folks comfortable and help them get going again, all while keeping things going non-stop, day and night. The rooms are set up for comfort, there are outdoor areas for relaxing, and they try to keep people active with social events, regular activities, and ways to get involved in the community. Housekeeping and laundry are handled, and residents can count on support with whatever daily activities they can't do on their own, so it does cover a lot of needs under one roof. The place holds up to 142 residents, and usually there are about 115 folks staying, so it's a busy place with a mix of different needs. Salyersville Nursing & Rehab has been operated by Extendicare, a company that runs a lot of these facilities around the country, with management by Moshe Kelman and Thomas Tackett, and there's an ownership group including Benjamin Landa, Goldie Platschek, Alexander Platschek, and David Rubenstein. The nurse turnover rate is 28.4% over a year, which is better than what most places in the state see, but nurse staffing hours per person are lower than the Kentucky average. Deficiencies have shown up-there were 16 in recent inspection reports-with issues like keeping equipment in good order and handling nutrition safely, though reports say there was no actual harm, still there was the risk for harm, and inspections have been delayed with the last full check happening over two years ago. While Salyersville Nursing & Rehab tries to offer compassionate, tailored care and lots of support through individual programs, it's good to know about the inspection and staffing points before choosing, and overall, it's a large and busy facility covering most skilled nursing and rehab needs for older adults or others needing recovery in the area.
