Working at Letcher Manor

Letcher Manor is a 142-bed nursing home in Whitesburg, Kentucky. Over the 12-month period CMS measures, 33.3% of its registered nurses stopped working here. Across the 250 Kentucky nursing homes CMS reports, the average is 40.9%, so Letcher Manor keeps its RNs better than 62% of nursing homes in the state.

Staffing tells a different story. Residents here receive about 34 minutes of RN time per day, against 47 minutes across Kentucky. That is less RN coverage than most Kentucky nursing homes. CMS gives Letcher Manor a staffing rating of 2 out of 5.

What this means if you apply here

  • How many residents does each RN cover on the shift I would work?
  • How is weekend RN coverage handled?
  • What keeps your RNs here? Ask the nurses you meet, not only the manager.
