Nursing Home & Memory Care · Carlisle, KY
Willowbrook Healthcare is a 104-bed, privately owned skilled nursing and memory care facility at 2323 Concrete Road in Carlisle, Kentucky. Serving Nicholas County, the facility is operated by Willowbrook Healthcare Group, LLC, and accepts Medicare and Medicaid.
The facility reports direct care staffing levels significantly higher than state benchmarks. Nurse aide hours are 5 hours and 7 minutes per resident per day—110% above the Kentucky average, and LPN hours are 2 hours and 19 minutes per day, which is 184% above the state average. RN hours are recorded at 1 hour and 50 minutes per day. While these figures indicate high hands-on care capacity, a current CMS star rating was not available in recent public reports.
The Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services oversees inspections. Based on available records, the facility maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of 1.0. Occupancy data is not currently provided in public filings. The facility is located in a moderately walkable setting near the city center, facilitating community access for residents and families.
Service programs include short-term and long-term rehabilitation, memory care, and respite care. Amenities include private and semi-private furnished rooms, an outdoor courtyard, and a full-service beauty salon. Dining features home-cooked meals served in two communal dining rooms. Since specific monthly pricing and ancillary fees are not included in public reports, families should request a current fee schedule during a facility tour.
Families seeking a facility with notably high direct care staffing levels and a variety of resident programs may find this environment appropriate. Those evaluating Willowbrook Healthcare should request current inspection reports and conduct an in-person visit before making a placement decision.
Staffing hours breakdown
Daily nursing hours per resident by staff type, reported to CMS. Higher is generally better — compare this facility to state and national averages to see where staffing stands.
| 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.
| 40m per day | ▼ 14% 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.
| 1h 6m per day | ▲ 34% 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.
| 3h 38m per day | ▲ 49% 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.
| 4h 55m per day | ▲ 41% 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.
| 6m per day | ▲ 44% 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.
| 23m per day | ▼ 25% State avg: 31m per day · National avg: 28m per day |
