Carmel Manor is a 175-bed skilled nursing, memory care, and personal care community in Fort Thomas, Kentucky, offering skilled nursing, short-term rehabilitation, memory care, personal care, and respite services. The facility is operated by The Carmelite Sisters For The Aged And Infirm, a voluntary nonprofit organization. It accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. Carmel Manor holds a 1-star CMS overall rating, driven by its Health Inspection score, which ranks in the bottom fifth of Kentucky’s 186 rated skilled nursing facilities. Across inspections since 2019, the facility accumulated 37 total health citations — nearly three times the Kentucky average of 13.5 — including 7 critical and 4 serious citations; a May 2025 follow-up visit confirmed substantial compliance with the accepted plan of correction. CMS assessed $312,000 in civil money penalties, anchored by a $292,000 fine in July 2025 associated with three critical abuse-and-neglect citations, as well as a four-day payment denial in March 2025. Staffing is the facility’s clearest counterpoint: nurse staffing averages 4 hours and 34 minutes per resident per day, 32% above the Kentucky average, earning a 4-star CMS staffing rating and a top-20 statewide rank out of 184 facilities. The facility’s occupancy rate is 54% — well below Kentucky’s average of 81.3% — indicating current bed availability. Private pay accounts for 67% of admissions, with an average length of stay near 200 days. Carmel Manor’s rehabilitation services, above-average nursing staff hours, and current availability make it well-suited to short-term post-acute stays and personal care placements in Campbell County. However, families should review the facility’s inspection history, abuse-related citations, and federal penalties before making a placement decision.
Carmel Manor is administered by Jena Quinn-Sexton.
