Overview of Morgantown Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center

Morgantown Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center provides nursing home and skilled nursing care in Morgantown, WV, along with memory care, hospice care, palliative care, and respite care. Skilled nursing means licensed nurses are available on site around the clock. Memory care is provided in a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering.

Hospice care supports residents receiving care at the end of life, while palliative care focuses on comfort alongside serious illness.

There are 100 beds, and total nurse staffing is 2 hours and 45 minutes per resident per day, representing the recorded daily nursing time allocated to each resident.

Payment options include Medicaid, Medicare, and private pay. Medicaid can help when a resident’s savings may not cover a long stay, while Medicare covers short term skilled care after a hospital stay rather than long term residence. Private pay means the family pays directly.

Rehabilitation services are available at the center, allowing residents to receive rehabilitation without arranging care at another location. A salon, barber, and transportation are available for grooming and travel needs. Morgantown Heights of Journey operates the center, and Sheila Jones-Marino serves as administrator.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in Morgantown, WV

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in West Virginia?

Assisted living in West Virginia supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence.

Does West Virginia Medicaid cover memory care?

West Virginia Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including West Virginia) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
