Full-Time
The Homeplace at Midway is a short drive from Lexington, and those 15 miles take you through beautiful Kentucky landscapes dotted with stone fences, rolling fields, and historic farmhouses. Midway is best known for its beautiful Thoroughbred farms and quaint, historic vibe, and the town is full of local restaurants and merchants. The Homeplace at Midway is next door to a horse farm, and our neighbors love to visit us at the fence line.
As Kentucky’s first (and only) Green House® Residence, we believe in a different kind of senior care. Imagine the opposite of a traditional nursing home, where elders live in cottages with a shared kitchen and social areas. We base our standard of care on the personal relationships between residents and staff, getting to know each individual and caring for them as if they were our own family. To accomplish this, our staff to patient ratio is lower than most of our competitors, and CNAs typically have 12 or fewer elders to care for each shift. The Homeplace at Midway is a part of Christian Care Communities. Founded in 1884, Christian Care is Kentucky’s largest faith-inspired, not-for-profit provider of senior living and long-term care for older adults.
