Both communities on the Morning Pointe of Frankfort, Kentucky, campus recently achieved deficiency-free health licensure surveys for 2025.
About the Surveys
Senior health care communities must undergo unannounced state inspections yearly. The health licensure survey addresses aspects of care including (but not limited to):
- Medication management
- Nutrition and meals
- Resident Hygiene
- Record keeping
- Staffing
- Resident and family feedback from in-person interviews
- Compliance with building safety codes
- Fire safety, including fires extinguishers, drills, and sprinkler system
- Emergency and disaster plan
Morning Pointe of Frankfort Assisted Living and The Lantern at Morning Pointe Alzheimer’s Center of Excellence both underwent this survey and passed with no citations.
“I am so proud of these teams for not only achieving this deficiency-free survey at one community, but both communities earning the distinction,” said Kendell Stratton, vice president of operations for Morning Pointe Senior Living’s Bluegrass Region. “Each resident, and their family, is special to us, and we strive every day to not only meet the requirements of the state but also to be a true caring family for the residents. We love them and their families, and we always want to provide the best for them.”
