Overview of Green Meadows Health & Rehabilitation

Green Meadows Health & Rehabilitation is a 122-bed facility located at 310 Boxwood Run Road in Mount Washington, Kentucky. Serving Bullitt County, the center is owned and operated by Green Meadows SNF Operations LLC and accepts Medicare and Medicaid.

The facility currently holds no displayed CMS overall star rating due to its newer operating status. Staffing levels show a varied profile: LPN hours are 1 hour and 4 minutes per resident per day—31% above the Kentucky average—while RN hours are 25 minutes per day, which is 46% below the state average of 46 minutes. Nurse aide hours are 1 hour and 54 minutes (22% below average), and weekend RN coverage is 26 minutes per day.

Long-stay quality measures are a significant strength, with hospitalizations at 1.03 per 1,000 resident days (45% better than the Kentucky average) and emergency department (ED) visits at 1.36 per 1,000 days (38% better than average). However, short-stay measures indicate challenges; the re-hospitalization rate of 34.3% is 40% worse than the state average of 24.5%, and the successful return-to-home rate is 45.6%, which is 10% below the state benchmark. Notably, the facility maintains a zero percent rate for falls with major injury.

The Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services oversees inspections. Green Meadows Health & Rehabilitation maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of zero based on its current regulatory cycle. No civil money penalties, payment denials, or license actions have been recorded in the past three years. Occupancy is currently described as in line with the Kentucky average of 81.3%.

Service programs include short-term rehabilitation, long-term care, dementia care, and respite services. The facility provides 24-hour staffing and a specialized focus on recovery potential. Amenities include modern therapeutic spaces and common areas designed for resident engagement. Since specific monthly pricing and ancillary fees are not provided in public records, request a current fee schedule during a facility tour.

Prospective residents seeking a newer facility with strong long-stay clinical outcomes may find this environment appropriate. Because of the elevated short-stay re-hospitalization rate and the gap in RN staffing, individuals should ask the administrator directly about clinical oversight and discharge planning protocols during an in-person visit before making a placement decision.

Overview of Cedar Lake Lodge

Cedar Lake Lodge is a 63-bed nonprofit facility at 3301 Jericho Road in La Grange, Kentucky. Owned by Cedar Lake Lodge, Inc. (License #100450), the organization provides a comprehensive continuum of services for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities throughout Oldham County and the Louisville metropolitan area.

As an Intermediate Care Facility for Individuals with Intellectual Disabilities (ICF/IID), the organization operates under a distinct regulatory framework and does not carry a CMS nursing home star rating. The Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services oversees inspections; based on recent focused filings, the facility maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of zero. This service model emphasizes long-term habilitation and community integration rather than the post-acute or elder care models found in standard nursing homes.

The campus features a specialized ICF unit for higher-acuity needs alongside an Enrichment Center for daytime programming. Services include supported living, staffed residences, family home providers, and daily living supports. The organization utilizes a community-integration model supported by an active volunteer program and dedicated transportation services. Medicaid is the primary funding mechanism, and eligible individuals may access the Kentucky Medicaid Home and Community-Based Waiver or the Hart-Supported Living Program.

The facility is designed to support personal growth through varying care levels, ranging from independent supported living to 24-hour residential care. Because residential placement and financial assistance eligibility are often managed through state administrative channels, request current per diem rates directly from the facility.

Individuals seeking specialized residential placement or community-based support for developmental disabilities should contact the administration and the Kentucky Department for Behavioral Health, Developmental and Intellectual Disabilities (DBHDID). Reviewing current unit availability and the full range of waiver alternatives with a case manager is recommended before making a placement decision.
