A nice place
I never ate there and my dad did not participate in the activities. He is mostly non verbal now. Nice people and friendly staff.

It's been okay we are just looking for a secure facility and one a little closer to home as any time he has to be sent to the ER the EMTs take him to Flaget but they won't take him back since it's not an actual Nursing Home and someone from the family has to drive an hour both way to take him back to the facility and this happened twice in a 24 hour period.

Aspen Alcove services are slightly more available than other places visited. The staff was great, PCP available to include Pysch, and medicines can be dispensed there and monitored more effectively. This is more than just having caregivers present to address resident needs. The place has just been remodeled too.

I was not impressed with it. They made it sound good but did not do what they told us. Mix up on meds and I don't think they were given all the time. Mom's toe was infected and took a week to get it worked out. Not good. They are changing companies right now and said it would get better. I hope it does we need places like that for our loved ones. I am going back in 6 months to see if it has changed. My mom was in the memory unit. I cannot speak for the assistant living part.

Overall experience: There was a lot of staff turnover, and it often felt like no one was clear on their roles or responsibilities. Cleanliness of the facility: The facility had been painted and had new flooring installed, which improved its appearance. Friendliness: The staff were generally friendly. Quality of care: While it is understandable that it can be difficult to keep up with everything, personal items such as glasses were frequently misplaced, and shaving was often needed during visits. Administrative staff: The administrative team changed often, and there seemed to be confusion about responsibilities. Food: The food was good overall. He mainly ate eggs and green beans, but he did enjoy the meals provided. We also shared an Easter meal there, and the cook prepared a very nice dinner. Activities: There did not appear to be any activities taking place. Value for the money: Communication could have been more informative. He has since moved to Elizabethtown to be closer to family for visits. When he moved, several personal items were missing, including washcloths and a razor charger. Despite requests to locate them, they have not been found after a few weeks.

[name removed] told us that the old owners had planned to renovate, but cancelled their plans when the home went up for sale. The outside needed painting, and the inside was dated. The staff was friendly, and we had a good discussion. Our problem remains that we only want a 2-week respite stay, and we cannot make solid plans since no one takes reservations for respite care. This facility has a sister home in Elizabethtown, which has been recently renovated, and we plan to visit it next.

Our appointment was scheduled at 1O:00 am on a Sunday. I left my job and commuted 45 minutes to Bluegrass Assisted Living for our appt. We were able to walk right in- no one there/no security. We pressed the help button multiple times after we stood there for 15 minutes. A staff member finally happened to see us standing there. She then stated that the manager, [name removed], who was supposed to give us our tour, was not there. She went on to say that no one else could give a tour. We saw three staff members talking to each other, saying, “Is [name removed] going to be here?” Frustrated, we left and I proceeded to commute back to my job. I wasted over an hour and a half in travel time alone. This was completely disrespectful. If there was an emergency, another staff member should’ve been available. We were already there. We were not told that [name removed]needed to cancel until five minutes before our tour! The facility appeared rundown and dirty. There was an empty mandatory hand sanitizer dispenser

These ratings were for someone with advancing dementia (w/ varying agitation) and advanced incontinence so those factors should be taken into account for our situation. All staff workers that we encountered were helpful and very cooperative. We found BGAL to be better than our experiences with Signature Healthcare personnel overall for sure, and there was the occasional caring attendant at Signature Healthcare but enough less than cordial personnel to be disappointed with that facility.

My mother was previously a resident at Bluegrass Assisted Living Bardstown and her experience at this facility was very good. The staff were very good and very responsive. The housekeeping and the food could have both been a little better, but overall were okay. This facility is a good place for the cost. I would recommend Bluegrass Assisted Living Bardstown to family and friends.

I saw caregivers attempting to assist my relative at Bluegrass Assisted Living than I ever saw at ..[community name removed] more than I ever saw...Even though the meals were rated as a 4, I did see some really decent meals. Based on the experience we have had so far with Bluegrass Assisted Living, I would recommend them to other families.

Bluegrass assisted living located in Bardstown, KY is the most affordable assisted living community within the area. Value for price is exceptional. 1 BR 1 BA apartment is clean and well appointed. Director and staff are knowledgeable, kind, happy, and treat residents with respect. Facility grounds could use landscape improvements. Activities are limited but price reflects.

My loved one is happy here. It is a low key, and not swanky community. If you are looking for comfortable place this is the place for you. My loved one enjoys the food, and has no complaints so far. To my knowledge there are no activities currently due to the pandemic.

They come pretty quick if we push our button for emergencies or problems. They take very good care of us and are friendly and kind. The food is very good and easy to eat (not tough).

My mother has lived here for almost 5 years and I have been very pleased with the quality of the care and the true concern for mom's comfort, health and safety from the caregivers and the administration and on-site administrator, [name removed]. They have games, crafts and some type of entertainment weekly.

As soon as I opened the front door to go into the foyer, smelled a strong odor of urine and feces. When I stepped into the common area, the smell was there as well. The residents I saw seemed ok. I can only rate the overwhelming smell while I was visiting a resident.

Bardstown is a small community where most times we all come together. This is my 2nd family and I would highly recommend it. Just wish we had more volunteers to do more outings.

It's like a family at Bluegrass. The food is great. Everyone gets along with most people. My family member is getting ready to move in because it is so small.

My husband loves people and the staff at Bluegrass were so good with him the week he was there for his respite care. He got to be around the other residents and enjoyed the food. I would have no problem using them again.

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:
Know Kentucky’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Kentucky’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.
Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.
Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
