I had a very positive experience with the care provided at this nursing home. The staff was consistently kind, attentive, and respectful, creating a warm and supportive environment. It was clear that they genuinely care about the residents and take the time to get to know each person. The therapy team was excellent—knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging throughout the recovery process. They worked closely with me to build strength and mobility, always making sure I felt safe and comfortable during sessions. The facility itself was clean, well-maintained, and organized. The communication between staff, residents, and families was also very reassuring and helped build trust. Overall, I’m very grateful for the care and support I received here. I would confidently recommend this nursing home to anyone looking for a place that provides both quality care and compassion.

I am writing this letter with a full heart as I prepare to leave Louisville East Post Acute after three years and five months. I wanted to put into words what this place has meant to me, in hopes that it might encourage others who are considering coming here. I arrived in October of 2022 in very difficult circumstances. I had survived cancer in 2019, during which a good portion of my left thigh was removed. Although I recovered, I was left unable to stand for long without falling. I was also carrying significant weight — nearly 278 pounds — and I was deep in grief following the loss of my husband. When I first arrived, I could not get out of bed on my own and I was incontinent. I want to be honest about that because I want people to understand how far I have come. The therapy department at Louisville East is simply the best I have ever experienced, and I tried many before coming here. Diana, my physical therapist, practices what she calls “hard love.” If I said I can’t, she said yes you can — and that is exactly what I needed. She would not let me give up on myself. Tony, my occupational therapist, had me lifting weights and riding the bicycle, doing something every single day. It got my mind off my grief and my depression and made me feel alive again. I was moving, and I was living. The nursing staff, the nurses’ aides, and my doctors all treated me with great kindness and professionalism throughout my stay. After about a year I was given a private room, which became my own little sanctuary. The food was wonderful, and the dietitian Kathy worked with me personally to arrange fruits, vegetables, and a managed diet that supported my health goals. Over the course of my time here I have lost approximately 70 pounds. My blood pressure, which had been dangerously unmanaged and may have contributed to my falls, is now well controlled through proper medication and diet. I had been using a walker before coming here and was still falling regularly — but through the care I received at Louisville East, I no longer fall. My walker remains my trusted companion, but I use it now with confidence and stability. The activities program also played a healing role that I cannot overstate. Under the leadership of activity director Angela, her assistant Jackie, and the wonderful volunteers who give their time to our community, the crafts, get-togethers, and special dinners created a sense of joy and belonging that supported my recovery in ways that go beyond medicine. I am now transitioning to independent living, something I could not have imagined when I first arrived here barely able to get out of bed. The moving trucks come today. Someone comes for me tomorrow. I leave with gratitude in my heart for every person at Louisville East who showed me kindness, gave me their knowledge and skill, and helped me find my way back to myself. My deepest thanks to the entire staff. Louisville East Post Acute is a truly healing place, and I would recommend it without hesitation to anyone in need of care. With love and gratitude, Kathleen Mae Hymer (nee Embry) Pen KeeFee

I recently spent 5 nights at this facility following ankle surgery. I was given a room on the 100 hall which overlooked the courtyard. During the tire stay nursing staff both licensed and CNA’s were very nice and attentive. Although food is almost always a concern at nursing facilities, mine was quite good , served hot and when asked for extra condiments they were always available. Therapy staff was helpful and helped me reach my short term goals. I slept well and meds arrived on time. Staff made a point of stopping to see me prior to discharge to wish me well. My spouse paid privately for the stay and it was well worth the money. If I need to get some short term rehab, again I would definitely recommend LEPA!!!!!

Only familiar with the short-term rehab side of the building, not with the nursing home section. The rehab team is very helpful and informative. A few of the aides were very nice and kind to us
