The Best Nursing Home Communities in Harlan County, KY

"I visited this facility on several occasions over the last year. I have to say it is a top notch facility. It is clean and nicely decorated. It appeared very clean,and there were no unpleasant odors in any of the areas I visited. The residents seemed happy and during the weekends I was there, they had numerous activities planned. I would give them a higher rating, but they seemed to be understaffed when I was there. During mealtimes they seemed to struggle to come up with enough help to feed all the residents who needed assistance. There were some family members there who helped out, otherwise some of the residents would have had to wait to eat until others finished. I think if they added some more help, even just at mealtimes, this could be a top notch facility. I would not hesitate to place one of my family members here. "

"I toured this assisted living facility about a month ago. The staff there were all very kind, both when dealing with me and with the residents. Any questions I had, they took the time to answer. Anything that the residents needed, they did their best to help with. The nurse assistants were all patient and caring, always seeming to have a smile on their face, and ready to help with whatever was needed. The care that these people had for the residents was obvious. It was a pleasure to see that the human resources didn't hire in people unless it was clear that this wasn't just a job to them, that these people really want to help and care for others. "

"My wife had surgery and was placed in Lee Health and Rehab for physical therapy. Since being here she has received the very best of care. The nursing staff and the physical therapy staff are very professional and do a wonderful job taking care of her. The CNA's are also very professional and do a wonderful job making sure she has everything she needs to be comfortable here. My wife and I are extremely pleased with everyone at this facility and would highly recommend it to anyone needing rehab."

"I had my doubts but this place has definitely exceeded my expectations. They treat my family like their own. Staff is loving and caring. It is clean and doesn’t have an odor. Very clean. "

"My mother was a resident for 7 years. My brother and I could not be more pleased with the care she received. She had a very painful illness and she wonderful nurses worked with me to formulate a plan for her. They include family in decisions. They fed her every meal. If I needed to be in a nursing home I would choose Ridgecrest Manor. For anyone on the fence you can feel assured if you choose Ridgecrest."

"The Hazard Nursing Home was home to my first cousin for five years. I was very comfortable with the staff because I was always treated with a great amount of respect and hospitality. I have been to these facilities where the staff seemed as though they wanted to be somewhere else; this staff was just the opposite. They were always accommodating to my relative's needs no matter what they were. The room where my cousin stayed was always clean and kept very neat, which is something I always greatly appreciated. Although my cousin was always in a lot of pain, the care in which the staff took with him helped ease him through a lot of tough times. I always felt great when I had to leave because I knew he was being left in good hands, as it was made clear to me that his personal needs were this facility's top priority. "
