Bradford Square is a nursing home and skilled nursing community in Frankfort, Kentucky, run under the Genesis Healthcare Community umbrella. It’s a 100-bed facility off US Highway 127 South, and right now it’s running close to full, with occupancy at 91%. The area around it scores 43 on Walk Score, so it’s the kind of neighborhood where a few errands might be walkable, but most days you’re getting in the car.
The facility handles both ends of the care spectrum: short-term rehab stays and longer-term residency, with the average resident staying about 146 days. That range shows up in what’s offered on-site, rehabilitation services for people recovering from surgery or illness, and respite care for families who need a short-term break from caregiving duties at home.
Two things stand out in how the community involves its residents and trains its staff. There’s an Active Resident Council, a group that meets regularly so residents actually have input on policy, care quality, and day-to-day activities. Bradford Square also runs a state-approved Nurse Aide Training and Competency Evaluation Program on-site.
On the financial side, Bradford Square takes Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. Staffing breaks down to about 33 minutes of RN time per resident daily, 53 minutes from LPNs, and 2 hours 27 minutes from nurse aides, adding up to roughly 3 hours 12 minutes of nursing care per resident each day. One more practical note for families: Bradford Square allows pets, so moving in doesn’t have to mean leaving a companion animal behind.
