Christian Heights Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is a 60-bed facility at 124 West Nashville Street in Pembroke, Kentucky. Operated by Pembroke Operating Company, LLC (License #100069), the center serves Christian County and the Hopkinsville area, accepting both Medicare and Medicaid.
The facility reports direct care staffing levels that exceed state averages in some categories, though clinical oversight remains below par. LPN hours are 58 minutes per resident per day (18% above the Kentucky average) and nurse aide hours are 2 hours and 33 minutes (5% above average). However, RN hours are 24 minutes per day—48% below the state average of 46 minutes—and weekend RN hours are 13 minutes, 58% below the state benchmark. Physical therapy hours are recorded at 1 minute per day, which is 75% below the state average.
Quality measures indicate significant clinical concerns regarding acute care utilization. Long-stay hospitalizations are 3.73 per 1,000 resident days—99% worse than the Kentucky average of 1.87. Long-stay emergency department (ED) visits are 4.70 per 1,000 days, 115% worse than the state average of 2.19. These figures represent residents being hospitalized or sent to the ED at approximately double the state rate.
The Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services oversees inspections. Christian Heights maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of 2.0, which is 57% better than the Kentucky average of 4.7. A February 21, 2025, recertification survey identified two deficiencies involving food storage safety and physical environment issues, such as peeling paint and malfunctioning toilets. A November 25, 2025 survey found the facility in full compliance with zero deficiencies, indicating these issues were resolved. No civil money penalties or enforcement actions have been recorded for the 2024–2026 period. Occupancy is 93%, well above the state average of 81.3%.
Service programs include short-term and long-term rehabilitation, memory care, wound care, and medication management. Amenities feature activities programming and 24-hour staffing in a city-center location with a Walk Score of 31. Since specific monthly pricing for nursing care is not provided in public records, request a current fee schedule during a facility tour.
Prospective residents seeking high-occupancy care with an improving compliance record should carefully weigh the severely elevated hospitalization and emergency department visit rates. It is recommended that individuals ask the administrator directly about clinical initiatives to reduce acute care utilization and observe the physical plant repairs during an in-person visit before making a placement decision.
The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Based on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.

This home is ranked 35th out of 184 homes in Kentucky. Total adjusted nursing hours per resident per day, combining RN, LPN, and aide time. CMS adjusts this for case-mix so facilities can be fairly compared.
| Staff type | Hours / Day / Resident | vs state avg |
|---|---|---|
|
Registered Nurse (RN)
RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.
| 24m per day | ▼ 48% State avg: 46m per day · National avg: 41m per day |
|
LPN / LVN
Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care.
| 58m per day | ▲ 18% State avg: 49m per day · National avg: 52m per day |
|
Nurse Aide
Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.
| 2h 33m per day | ▲ 5% State avg: 2h 26m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day |
|
Weekend Total Nursing
Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.
| 3h 28m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 3h 30m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day |
|
Physical Therapist
Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation.
| 1m per day | ▼ 75% State avg: 4m per day · National avg: 4m per day |
|
Weekend RN
Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.
| 13m per day | ▼ 58% State avg: 31m per day · National avg: 28m per day |
