Bardstown Heatlh & Rehabilitation

Overview of Bardstown Heatlh & Rehabilitation

Bardstown Health & Rehabilitation is a 100-bed facility at 120 Life Care Way in Bardstown, Kentucky. Operated by Bloomfield SNF Operations LLC (Provider #185149), the center is a recent rebrand of the former Landmark of Bardstown Rehab and accepts both Medicare and Medicaid.

Staffing levels are a primary strength, with total nursing hours significantly exceeding state benchmarks. LPN hours are 1 hour and 19 minutes per resident per day, 61% above the Kentucky average, and RN hours are 52 minutes, which is 13% above average. Nurse aide hours are 2 hours and 41 minutes (10% above average), and weekend total nursing coverage is 4 hours and 15 minutes, running 21% above the state average. Conversely, weekend RN coverage is 19 minutes per day, which is 39% below the state benchmark of 31 minutes.

Quality outcomes are mixed; the facility reports zero falls with major injury among short-stay residents, a 100% improvement over the state average. The short-stay re-hospitalization rate of 16.3% is 33% better than the Kentucky average, and long-stay emergency department (ED) visits are 37% better than average at 1.38 per 1,000 days. However, short-stay residents show a self-care ability at discharge of 36.4%, which is 32% below the state average of 53.7%, and the short-stay ED visit rate of 18.7% is 35% above average.

The Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services oversees inspections. Bardstown Health & Rehabilitation maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of 3.0, which is 36% better than the Kentucky average of 4.7. A July 18, 2025, recertification survey identified three deficiencies (Scope E) involving medication labeling errors on both med carts and a failure to revise care plans for a resident who experienced an 18.1% weight loss—approximately 32.6 pounds—in less than one month. A March 2025 abbreviated survey found the facility in full compliance with zero deficiencies. No civil money penalties or license actions have been recorded for the 2024–2026 period. Current occupancy is 48%.

Clinical programs include specialized tracheostomy, bariatric, and oncology care alongside orthopedic and pulmonary rehabilitation. Amenities feature an activity center, library with a computer lounge, beauty salon and barbershop, and outdoor areas. The facility provides 24-hour skilled nursing and physical, occupational, and speech therapies. Since specific monthly pricing for long-term care is not provided in public records, request a current fee schedule during a facility tour.

Prospective residents requiring specialty rehabilitation or high LPN staffing may find this environment appropriate. Individuals evaluating the center should ask the administrator directly about corrective measures taken for the July 2025 medication storage and nutritional status findings and observe the current meal service protocols during an in-person visit.
