Most new residents arrive under Medicaid (67% of admissions), and a typical Medicaid stay runs around 9 years.
Jett SNF Operations LLC owns Breathitt Health & Rehabilitation, a 120-bed skilled nursing property located in Jackson, Kentucky. The administration handles standard financial accounts by processing private pay alongside Medicare and Medicaid options. The immediate neighborhood carries a Walk Score of 51, establishing a moderately walkable layout where visitors can manage a few common daily errands on foot, though most regional transit requires a brief drive.
The building runs at a 45 percent occupancy rate across its 120 beds, with residents staying for an average of 392 days. This timeline shows a stable operational mix of long-term medical housing and short-term post-hospital recovery tracks.
To manage these health goals, the 24-hour care team logs an average of 2 hours and 6 minutes of direct nursing care per resident every single day, working to monitor specialized therapy programs covering orthopedic rehab, post-surgical care, pulmonary management, bariatric services, and oncology nursing.
Prospective representatives can schedule an in-person visit to evaluate the therapy layouts, look over the building configurations, and discuss recent operations directly with the management team. The front office coordinates these property walks while answering direct questions regarding room availability, temporary respite tracks, and the specific steps taken during recent regulatory updates to align daily floor procedures with general state safety standards.
Breathitt Health & Rehabilitation is administered by Debra Hunt.
In Kentucky, the Cabinet for Health and Family Services, Office of Inspector General is the regulatory authority that conducts inspections and investigates complaints in all long-term care homes.
