Experience...The Difference!
Joe Okruhlica, Administrator since 1982.
Do you know what people say about Parkway Rehabilitation and Nursing Center? They say we are different and have that special something. With more than 350 employees, Parkway is a spirited, refreshing and energizing community. Our staff is trained to combine their knowledge and skills with gentleness and warmth as we care for subacute rehabilitation patients as well as our elder population. Parkway is the road to health, home and healing.
We are a Louisville original!
Parkway Rehabilitation and Nursing Center is locally owned and operated. We are not part of a corporation and have been under the same administration for over 25 years. Joe Okruhlica has built a reliable, stable staff. The 35 individuals in core leadership positions have over 500 years of combined experience at Parkway. This continuity makes a difference and is why we have a long history of excellent state surveys and reputation. The key to our success is based on employee stability.
Our experience is what makes us different.
In addition to the core leadership staff, fifty percent of our Care Partners have been a part of Parkway for more than five years. One hundred and fifty nurses’ aides are on staff and the average nurse’s aide has been at Parkway for 3 ½ years. In a world of constant job changes, these averages are extremely unusual. Believe us…this experience makes all the difference when it comes to delivering dynamic care.
Parkway is licensed by the Commonwealth of Kentucky and by the State Department for Human Resources. We provide both subacute rehabilitation as well as skilled and basic nursing care. The facility is also certified to participate in Kentucky Medicaid and federal Medicare programs. We also accept private insurance.
