What families need to know about enhanced support options for older adults
Kentucky has introduced a new tiered system for Assisted Living care, providing families and residents with greater clarity and confidence when selecting the right level of support. These updated standards offer a more structured approach to meet the evolving needs of older adults, whether they require only light assistance or more involved health services.
At Wesley Manor, all of our Assisted Living apartments are now licensed for Basic Health, allowing us to better support residents as their needs change. Our service plans are thoughtfully tailored to each individual, balancing social support and healthcare services to match their lifestyle and preferences.
Assisted Living – Basic Health: Our Plus and Elite Plans
Designed for residents who require ongoing health monitoring and support, our Plus care plan includes more health services, including:
- More personalized support with daily routines, hygiene, hearing aides, and dentures
- Personal laundry
- Onsite coordination services like home health, dental, audiology, etc.

Our newly designed Elite service care plan adds to the Plus plan by introducing more comprehensive health management and mobility assistance, including:
