Overview of Bradford Heights Nursing and Rehabilitation

Four care types carry the license at Bradford Heights Nursing and Rehabilitation in Hopkinsville, KY. Palliative care, nursing home care, skilled nursing, and respite care are those four, spread over 100 beds. Licensed nurses staff the nursing side, and palliative care centers on comfort for a resident with a serious illness.

Respite care puts a short-term stay in reach for a family caregiver facing time away, travel, or a recovery of their own. Private Room Availability appears among the amenities.

Rehabilitation services and the Rehab-to-Home Program work with residents heading back to their own address after illness, injury, or time in hospital. That mix suits a caregiver needing temporary cover and a resident working toward going home.

Depending on eligibility and resources, a family uses Medicaid, Medicare, or its own money. Each resident is down for 3 hours and 16 minutes of nursing a day. Tia Hopper is the administrator, and Hopkinsville Ky Opco operates the community.

Overview of Woodcrest Nursing and Rehabilitation Center

An outdoor bird sanctuary occupies part of the grounds at Woodcrest Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. A salon operates inside, and social outings are scheduled on the calendar. Dressing changes on a fixed schedule are the sort of thing nobody at home reliably keeps up. Short-term rehabilitation covers that work until the wound closes. Palliative care is not the same as hospice. Comfort and symptom relief run at the same time as treatment, rather than replacing it.

Some families book respite the same weeks each year: a week in July and another week in December, so rest is written into the caregiving calendar.

Nursing coverage draws 3 hours and 19 minutes per resident each day across 127 beds. Licensed nurses are on the floor from the last visitor leaving to the time breakfast is served and any time in between.

Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted. Woodcrest Operating Company operates the community, with Jeffrey Weiner as administrator.

The area has a Walk Score of 36 / 100 and is car-dependent, so most errands require a car or a ride; a resident who no longer drives would generally need transportation for errands. Ashley Cochran is the administrator, Mary Haynes is the director, and Nazereth Home operates the community.
