Barbourville Health & Rehabilitation Center

Simple acts of kindness to show we care.Honored war veterans.  Survivors of the Great Depression. Grandmothers who know a good joke and bake the perfect apple pie.  The lives of our residents are rich in history and knowledge.  As a volunteer, you can meet and connect with these amazing people.

My mother has been there for nearly 4 years. We are self pay (pay out of pocket ourselves) the reason for that being said we pay to keep her at this facility. We feel like we pay for the best facility in our surrounding area. We initially started out at a facility in middlesboro. They weren't capable of providing the care that our mother needed. The nurses and aides were great. Administration and department heads didn't carry out things they promised to address with those providing care to mom. She was a extremely high fall risk, we had 6 falls in 2 months. 2 of those resulting in injuries that had to be treated by orthopedics. Since the switch to barbourville health and rehabilitation we've had 1 fall in nearly 4 years. Mother requires alot of work Physical therapy and speech therapy. These departments are top notch providing the best care I've ever saw. Our mother resides on 200 unit. The care she receives is phenomenal. She's up everyday sitting. We have a nurse and med tech that work together on their 2 halls together they keep their patients in top shape. They make sure their aides are giving fluids, snacks and changing those who require it. I call those 2 the dynamite duo they bust A$$ taking care of their people and their families addressing every concern we may have. Our father is going to be needing placed in a nursing home soon and he has said himself this is where he wants to be. We couldn't ask for better care. We have truly been blessed by the staff at barbourville.

I was denied a transfer to there so that I could be with family because none of the doctors working there would accept me. One Doctor I didn’t want because I had her in the past and she was very unprofessional and even prescribed me a medicine once that I was allergic to. And that information she had on file so no excuses. I had previously talked to the regional Ombudsman about requesting not to have her as a Doctor and the Ombudsman said that was fine as long as they had other doctors. But the other Doctors should have been fine and shouldn’t have denied me. There was literally no reason they should have denied me. The facility had beds open so that wasn’t an issue. I definitely feel like it was my past bad experiences with the bad Doctor that I had that probably led to her telling the other doctors not to accept me.
