Bluegrass Care Navigators Begins Bluegrass Home Health Care Services
Bluegrass Care Navigators purchased WEDCO Health Department’s home health services and assumed ownership of the license and provision of care to patients on July 1, 2022, under the name Bluegrass Home Health Care. Bluegrass Home Health Care now provides services in Harrison, Scott, Bourbon and Nicholas counties.
Patients previously cared for by WEDCO’s home health program had the opportunity to transition their care to Bluegrass Home Health Care or choose another home health provider, according to Bluegrass Care Navigators. Bluegrass Care Navigators has served Harrison, Scott, Bourbon and Nicholas counties for more than 30 years as the local provider of hospice care, with a regional office located in Cynthiana.

“As a local, community-based healthcare organization providing care wherever patients call home, we know how valuable home-based services are in the communities we serve,” said CEO Liz Fowler. “We are honored to expand our services in these counties and ensure continuity of care for patients and families cared for by WEDCO’s home health program.”
“We are pleased to have found a partner in Bluegrass Care Navigators in the sale of our home health license,” said WEDCO director Crystal Miller. “We have found a purchaser who shares our values and commitment in serving our community and are confident that they will continue providing excellent care to those who seek home health services.” Patients who transitioned to BCN experienced little change in their care providers, as many of the home health team continued serving the community as employees of Bluegrass Care Navigators.
