Be A Part of Something Great!

Emerald Trace on Turkeyfoot is a next-generation option for memory care, rehabilitation and long-term care that puts the personal independence of residents first. We are affiliated with Rosedale Green, Northern Kentucky’s not-for-profit care leader a community that, for decades, has built a reputation for ethics and compassion in the delivery of progressive, customized, person-centered care.

Emerald Trace will advance these same values of honor, respect, dignity, and community, and bring them into a 21st-century household setting. Working side-by-side with Action Pact, a Manhattan, KS-based company that pioneered the senior living Household design concept, Emerald Trace transforms the conventional “nursing home” setting from institutional into a warm, nurturing home using a more self-directed approach to care.
