Riverview Health Care Center

79 Sparrow Lane, Prestonsburg, KY 41653

Riverview Health Care Center presents a bit of a puzzle, looking like a five-star resort on the surface but with a few whispers from the data that deserve a closer listen. On the upside, their health inspections are spotless, meaning those unannounced government visits found a clean operation, and you're getting more registered nurse time per resident than most places, which translates to complex health changes being spotted before they become full-blown crises.
