Located on Stevens Avenue in Louisville, Highlands Nursing and Rehabilitation is a newly opened nursing home with 154 beds. The facility accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, and its main focus is short-term rehabilitation and respite care. Occupancy is about 93%, so the community is often close to full. Residents stay around 216 days on average, and the population includes both post-acute rehabilitation residents and longer-term residents.
Total nursing care averages 2 hours and 46 minutes per resident each day, and registered nurses, nurse aides, and licensed practical nurses are part of that coverage. Care is available around the clock. The facility also has outpatient therapy services, and rehabilitation remains a key part of daily operations.
