    About Kingsbrook Lifecare Center

    Kingsbrook Lifecare Center has been serving the community for over 30 years, standing out with its focus on different care types like assisted living, independent living, skilled nursing, memory care, and continuing care for residents who are 55 and older, and it has options for both short-term and long-term stays, which means you'll see people here for everything from rehab after a hospital visit to full-time care for dementia or physical disabilities, and the place is built to handle all that with skilled nursing services, rehabilitation, memory support, and more specialized things like wound care, cardiac care, diabetes care, and even its own Center for Healthy Living, Interventional Spine services, and Wound Center, plus they take care of all kinds of health needs with physical, occupational, and speech therapy so residents get help for regaining strength or independence after strokes, surgeries, joint replacements, or even serious illnesses like COVID, and they also have a Diabetes Education Center, Oncology, Neurology, and Behavioral Medicine, which means they can help with a pretty wide variety of needs. Kingsbrook is a non-profit run by Ashland Hospital Corporation and has indirect ties to Beyond Blue Corporation, Royal Blue Health, LLC, and University of Kentucky, and it's been managed by Jane Blankenship since January 2024 and Sara Marks since December 2022, so there's a steady hand at the top, but nurse turnover is a little high at 46.6%, with an average of about 4.77 nurse hours per resident per day, and it usually houses about 126 residents each day out of 137 certified beds, so it's a busy place. This is a licensed facility in Kentucky, and state inspections show it has some issues, like problems with Pharmacy Service (F0761), Resident Assessment and Care Planning (F0656), Quality of Life and Care (F0684), and infection control, so there are areas where improvement's needed, but staff stay focused on personal treatment plans, regular activities, and rounding out care with help for folks who need help with memory, like those in the Alzheimer's and dementia unit, or intensive therapy for orthopedic, cardiac, or even brain injuries, and yes, the nurses and therapists try to keep things patient-centered so people can reach their best possible function, whether that's walking through landscaped gardens and on pathways, spending time in solariums or chapels, or joining small group activities. Kingsbrook tries to provide comfort with modern touches-resident suites have cable TV, phone, internet, wall-to-wall carpeting, individual heating and air controls, and a nurse call system, and there are ventilator rooms for more serious cases. The place is made for easy living, with a parlor, a chapel, a library, and outdoor spaces for fresh air and visits with family. They accept Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance, and offer respite care, too, so families can take a break when needed. Residents can schedule tours to visit, see the grounds, and meet people who live and work there, and the staff aims to create a community where each person-and their needs-are seen, whether that's needing help with daily care, special diets, or unique rehab plans that change depending on recovery goals. Facilities like the Center for Healthy Living and programs such as Cardiac Care, Stroke Care, Diabetes Management, and Wound Healing add even more options for those with complex needs, and everything is aimed at helping seniors find both comfort and medical support in the same place-they're not perfect, and the records show there's room for getting better, but they offer a wide variety of services in a setting geared for older adults who want different levels of help as their needs change.
