Overview of Breckinridge Place

Breckinridge Place offers nursing home care, skilled nursing, assisted living, independent living, and respite care in Morganfield, KY. Nursing home and skilled nursing services provide licensed nursing care on site around the clock. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication, while independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care. Respite care offers a short stay when someone’s usual caregiver needs to travel or recover.

There are 32 beds. That gives the community a smaller setting where staff and residents can get to know each other. The range of care levels may suit a resident whose needs grow over time, since they can remain within the same community while moving from independent living or assisted living to more intensive care. Total nurse staffing is 5 hours 26 minutes per resident per day, representing that amount of daily nurse staffing time allocated per resident.

Chef prepared meals are served daily, with always available options for residents who prefer something different. Daily activities include games, crafts, music, and exercise. Transportation to medical appointments helps residents attend those visits without arranging a separate ride. Lyndsee Pendelton serves as the administrator.

Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted. Medicare applies to short term skilled care after a hospital stay, while Medicaid may help eligible residents cover long term care and private pay uses personal funds. A Walk Score of 53 places the area in the somewhat walkable band, meaning some errands can be done on foot. A resident may be able to complete select errands without a car.
