Masonic Home of Louisville provides licensed nursing-home care, anchoring its clinical services around a comprehensive rehabilitation program. Residents who arrive for short-term rehabilitation after surgery or illness receive physical, occupational, and speech therapy on site, coordinated by an interdisciplinary team that also oversees medication management and wound care. For individuals who need a longer stay, the staff delivers full skilled-nursing support on a 24-hour basis, addressing chronic conditions and monitoring vital signs to help prevent complications. The goal is to restore function whenever possible and maintain medical stability for those who will remain in long-term care.
Beyond the core medical services, the facility supplies daily assistance with dressing, bathing, mobility, and other routine activities of living. Care plans are reviewed regularly and updated with input from nurses, therapists, and family members, ensuring that each resident receives the appropriate level of help as needs change. Social services staff handle discharge planning for short-stay guests and coordinate community resources for long-term residents. An on-site dietitian collaborates with nursing to manage specialized diets, and the team schedules physician visits to minimize trips off campus for routine follow-ups.
Private and semi-private rooms are available, and while the layouts vary, some offer direct access to outdoor areas where residents can sit or walk with visitors. All living spaces include basic utilities, and most have wireless internet so residents can stay in touch with family; however, not every room is equipped with every feature, so prospective residents should verify specific accommodations during a tour.
Dining services supply three meals a day prepared under the guidance of the dietitian, with menus that incorporate physician-ordered modifications such as low-sodium or diabetic options. Meals are generally served in a communal dining room to encourage social interaction, though tray service is provided for residents who are recovering from illness or prefer to eat in their rooms. Snacks and hydration stations are available between meals, and therapeutic diet compliance is monitored by nursing staff.
Recreation programming centers on an activity center that hosts group exercises, crafts, and discussion groups designed to maintain cognitive engagement and promote social connection. A dedicated activities coordinator works with therapy staff to adapt events for residents with mobility or sensory limitations, ensuring that most individuals can participate in some form of scheduled programming.
