Ninety-one beds at Owsley County Health Care Center carry four different kinds of stay: long-term nursing, skilled nursing, hospice, and respite. The mix says something about who arrives here, since some residents are settling in and others have an exit date already written down.

Rehabilitation services handle the regaining and the maintaining both, after an illness or an injury. A house that suits a person perfectly well can be unworkable for the six weeks after an injury, and stairs are usually the reason.

Respite frequently begins on the day a hospital discharges someone. The medical side is finished before the home is ready, and a short stay covers the weeks while a ramp gets built.

Licensed nursing support does not keep office hours. Nursing time totals 3 hours and 50 minutes per resident each day.

Hospice aims at comfort instead of cure. For a resident at the end of life, that changes what a good day is measured against.

Overview of South Shore Nursing & Rehabilitation

There are four care types listed at South Shore Nursing & Rehabilitation in South Shore, KY. Those care types are hospice care, respite care, skilled nursing, and nursing home care.

The nursing delivered here is licensed, and it doesn’t stop regardless of the hour; that’s what the “skilled” part of the designation means. Hospice care is what the work becomes when someone nears the end of life. Respite care is the type of care that exists because sometimes a caregiver is unavailable, but the need for care doesn’t stop.

The home has 60 beds, and the nursing time allotted to each resident daily reaches three hours and twelve minutes.

Medicare and Medicaid are both accepted. Medicare is for stays that involve short stretches of skilled care, and Medicaid is for longer-term stays. Private pay is for meeting the rest that the two other payment options won’t.

This location suits a person who’s in recovery, someone nearing the end of life, someone who needs continuous care, or families who need help providing care for a set period. The administration of the home falls to Mary Warnock.
