Sterling Meadows Assisted Living

Overview of Sterling Meadows Assisted Living

Sterling Meadows Assisted Living is a 43-bed community at 209 North Maysville Street in Mount Sterling, Kentucky. Located in the historic Mount Sterling High School building, the facility serves Montgomery County under Kentucky license number 101497 and maintains an active status. The setting is moderately walkable, with a Walk Score of 67.

As a licensed assisted living community rather than a Medicare-certified nursing home, Sterling Meadows does not carry a CMS star rating. Licensure and inspections are overseen by the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services; the community maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of zero based on current state-focused surveys. The management team includes President Cliff White and Resident Service Director Derek Markin. The care model focuses on providing personal support while helping seniors maintain their independence.

The community offers a continuum of support, including assisted living, memory care, and respite care. Professional caregivers provide 24/7 assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs), such as bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, and hygiene. Specialized health services include medication reminders, easy-to-use medication packaging, and assistance with diabetes monitoring. The memory care program emphasizes social engagement and cognitive support within a structured, familial environment.

Residents live in private apartments that feature 10-foot ceilings, large windows with plantation blinds, and kitchenettes equipped with refrigerators and microwaves. Bathrooms are designed for safety with seated showers, grab bars, and an emergency pull-cord system. All utilities, including basic cable, water, gas, electric, and internet, are included in the cost of care. Campus amenities include a grand dining room serving three homestyle meals daily, a first-floor ballroom, an on-site salon, and a mail room with individual mailboxes. Outdoor spaces feature an expansive front porch with a grilling area, balconies on every floor, and a shaded courtyard with walking paths.

Individuals seeking a moderately sized community in a historic, walkable setting may find this environment appropriate. Prospective residents should contact the administration directly to discuss current pricing, which ranges from approximately $2,800 to $7,200 per month, and schedule an in-person tour to evaluate the building and current care programs.
