Our read on Jefferson County Nursing Home
Jefferson County Nursing Home is county-owned and runs 60 certified beds in Fayette, and its strongest suit is staffing: 4.45 nurse hours per resident day, about 15% above the national average, with turnover at 34% against a national 45.8%. Weekend coverage drops roughly 18% below weekday levels, which is worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. The health inspection record is solid, 4 of 5 stars, last inspected May 2025, but nine deficiencies sit on the current record, two of them abuse-related, and the quality measure rating is just 1 of 5. Ask directly how those abuse citations were resolved and what the low quality scores reflect.
