Nicholasville Nursing and Rehabilitation receives highly polarized feedback, with many five-star reviews praising the therapy department and staff kindness, while critical reviews highlight severe concerns regarding neglect, hygiene, and understaffing. Families should be aware of a significant divide between positive experiences and reports of residents being left in soiled conditions or suffering from preventable health issues like bedsores. The facility has undergone ownership changes, but recent negative reports suggest ongoing challenges with administrative responsiveness and staffing levels.

Key Review Excerpts
“My mother has bed soars on every place of pressure and bone that touches her skin. She went to the hospital because of not eating and found out she has stage 4 cancer and is on her deathbed going to hospice.”
“My grandmother is a current resident. Since the day she arrived to now - there has been problems with the facility. Bug infestation. Poor care. Low staff.”
“All staff made my stay for rehab pleasant. The employees are all kind, caring, and efficient that I dealt with while there. They are very professional. The facility runs like a well run machine.”
