November is Home Care and Hospice Month, and we’re taking a moment to celebrate our team that brings high-quality, compassionate care straight to patients’ homes across Boyd, Carter, Lawrence, Greenup, and Elliott counties.

Each month, this group supports an average of 400 patients and makes nearly 4,500 in-home visits. That’s 4,500 moments of connection, comfort, and support—all made possible by nurses, therapists, aides, social workers, and office staff who show up with skill and heart every day.

Our Home Health team provides a wide range of services, including skilled nursing, physical, occupational, and speech therapy, medical social work, and Home Health aide support. From wound care and mobility training to communication strategies and help with daily activities, they meet patients where they are and help them stay safe, confident, and independent at home.

This month, we’re grateful for the dedication, compassion, and professionalism this team brings to our community. Thank you for the miles you travel, the trust you build, and the difference you make in so many lives.

Congratulations to Rachel Callihan-Wilson, RN, for winning the prestigious DAISY Award!

Rachel is a nurse on the Mother Baby Unit. The care Rachel provided resulted in the following nomination:

“Rachel and I really bonded in our encouragement of our life stories and our faith. We both share beliefs and we shared several moments together encouraging one another and identifying how God has us right where we are supposed to be. I am at a very shifting turning point in my life and God put us together to help me feel at ease and keep my faith grounded in Him and His son Jesus Christ. He has a plan and a huge purpose for a delivered drug addict like me. Rachel helped me see that.”

The DAISY (Diseases Attacking the Immune SYstem) Award is an international recognition program that celebrates the skillful, compassionate care nurses provide every day.

Thursday, we had a great day welcoming Collins Career Technical Center nursing students to UK King’s Daughters for a special New Grad LPN Hiring Event.

These future nurses had the chance to meet our department leaders, learn about our culture, and even interview - on the spot - for open roles. It was a great day of connection, conversation, and career exploration.

To the students who joined us, thanks for spending part of your journey with us. We loved getting to know you and can’t wait to see where your path leads next.
