Overview of Morganfield Nursing and Rehabilitation Center

Morganfield Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is a skilled nursing home in Morganfield, Kentucky, and Melissa Knight owns and runs the home. The 60-bed facility is fairly new but has already reached 88% occupancy, indicating community acceptance. Located on North Carrier Street, the property has a walkability score of 53.

The home cares for residents coming in for post-acute rehabilitation as well as people who need longer-term nursing care. Residents stay for about 123 days on average. Medicare, Medicaid, and private-pay residents are accepted, so families have several ways to cover the cost of care.

Skilled rehabilitation is a major part of what the home offers. Residents have access to a full range of on-site rehabilitation services, and respite care is available for those needing a temporary stay. A physician is on staff. Nursing care averages about 3 hours and 5 minutes per resident each day.

Registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and nurse aides provide care throughout the day and night. That level of staffing gives residents hands-on daily care and a regular clinical presence. People recovering from surgery, stroke, or other complex medical conditions are among those receiving care at the facility. Serving both rehabilitation and nursing care residents, the home works with a wide range of care needs.

Daily life includes social events, outings, and other activities. Residents also have access to a beauty and barber shop, family gathering rooms, complimentary Wi-Fi, television service in every room, and full laundry services. The home is pet-friendly, and that can matter to residents who want to keep their companions close during their stay.

State inspections found areas that needed attention. These included life safety systems, infection prevention procedures, and medication management practices. Families who tour the facility can talk directly about these findings and ask how the issues are being addressed.

Morganfield is still a newer facility and continues to build its place in the local market. It is actively serving people looking for rehabilitation services and short-term care in the region. An in-person tour can give families a better look at the clinical setting, room options, and the pace of daily life. As a facility that recently opened, it is still developing its operations while caring for residents in the community.

vs avg

4 of 6 metrics below state avg

Standout metric Weekend RN is +52% above state avg

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.	53m per day	▲ 15% 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.	28m per day	▼ 43% 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 15m per day	▼ 8% 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 9m per day	▼ 10% 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	▼ 71% 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.	47m per day	▲ 52% State avg: 31m per day · National avg: 28m per day
