Our admission process is designed to be straightforward and efficient. It typically takes approximately 20 minutes to complete all necessary steps.

Assisted living residences offer adaptable services, allowing residents to progress to nursing home care when needed. Personal care homes transfer residents to skilled nursing facilities if their health needs exceed the available care. Skilled nursing facilities provide temporary, intensive 24-hour medical rehabilitation to prepare residents for more independent care. Assisted living or intermediate care typically helps with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, grooming, medication management, and meal preparation.

Prior to admission, Eastern Star Home in Kentucky requires a history and physical (H&P) report. This can be obtained from either the resident's primary care provider or their current living facility.

In addition to medical documentation, we require copies of the power of attorney document, living will, and insurance cards.

If a resident's funds are depleting, we encourage open communication. Our team can assist in exploring alternative arrangements while the power of attorney initiates the Medicaid application process.

A private pay facility refers to an arrangement where room and board fees are paid privately. Depending on the type of care required and individual circumstances, skilled nursing costs may be covered by long-term care insurance or personal funds.
