It is my honor to share with you that Vitality Living St. Matthews has received the 1st-ever 'Best Assisted Living Community - State of Ky.' Award for 2025!
To commemorate this special occasion of the inaugural year for a State-wide award, the President of the National Association has come in to present this award to the selected community. This award was determined based on various criteria that included things such as history of State Inspection performance (Regulatory Compliance excellence), Clinical metrics and local hospital/E.R. admission data coming from the community (Quality of Care excellence), and what is known as Community Integration - online review scores, social media presence, stability in the market, etc. (Reputation excellence).
I'm sure we will issue a press release, and will celebrate this in several other ways, but I wanted to reach out to you all, first, today - because everyone in our community family is a part of this achievement.
When the Association office called a month ago to tell me that the Board committee had chosen us for this new state award, I cried a little bit.
They asked me to not share the news until the banquet happened, and tonight's the night.
My Director team has joined me at the Galt House, and we will be standing proudly, under the flashing lights, standing with everyone from our team in our hearts - each one of our staff is a part of this, each one of our residents and their families are a part of this too.
Tonight they may hand me the plaque, but it really and truly belongs to us all.
