Something to think about…

What will you do when you can’t live by yourself? By choosing to enter Trinity Station, you are making this critical and important decision yourself, thus relieving your children or some other family members from having to decide “what to do” when that time comes. There are few things in life more important to all of us than being able to decide for ourselves these crucial questions: “What are the important life style decisions that I need to make as I face my future?” “Will I someday need help in daily living activities?” “What can I do now to prepare for that day?” We are here to help you with those decisions and how you deal with what life brings you in the future. We are committed to bringing you the kind of living you expect, having worked so hard to get it. We are truly excited to bring it to you, and we hope that you truly will enjoy the “Best” of your life here at Trinity Station Retirement Community. We welcome you to our website, and are available to answer any questions that you may have. Also join us on Facebook and become a fan.

Your satisfaction is guaranteed

Since 1902, our family has been dedicated to providing residential housing, health care and business opportunities for this community.

We are tireless in our commitment to exceed our resident’s expectations. We say it all the time, we are all family here.  Not only did I start this company but I believed in it so much that I also became a client.  My mother was a resident here until she passed away at the age of 93 years old.  She spent her final years with us at Trinity Station and loved every minute of it.  I also had my father, my wife’s aunt and uncle and my grandmother.  We believe that your family can also enjoy the “Best of their Life” with us here at Trinity Station.

Sincerely,
J.P.Bailey
Founder of Trinity Station

J.P. Bailey was the founder of Trinity Station Retirement Community and a lifelong resident and builder of Flatwoods, Kentucky. He passed away in August 2025 from vascular dementia while residing at Trinity Station—the very community he envisioned and brought to life. With more than 40 years of experience as a contractor, developer, and senior care professional, J.P. left an enduring mark on the region in both physical and personal ways. As a third-generation building contractor and land developer, he proudly carried on the legacy of his family—affectionately known as “the Baileys that built Flatwoods.” From residential neighborhoods to commercial landmarks, the contributions of J.P., his father Howard, and his uncles Clarence, Jack, Homer, Paul, and Harry Jr. remain woven into the fabric of the city.

J.P. earned a Bachelor’s degree in Business from Marshall University in Huntington, WV, and was a licensed Nursing Home Administrator. He was also a licensed Real Estate Broker and Certified Real Estate Appraiser in the State of Kentucky. His combined expertise in business, construction, and healthcare administration gave him the unique vision and capability to establish Trinity Station as a trusted and compassionate retirement community.

Beyond his professional endeavors, J.P. was deeply committed to his faith and service. He was a longtime Deacon and board member at Faith Christian Assembly Church in Flatwoods. His service and contributions to the Commonwealth have been honored with a commission as a Kentucky Colonel, the state’s highest civilian title awarded by the Governor of Kentucky in recognition of noteworthy accomplishments and service to the community.

J.P. was an author as well. “Intangible Prosperity: How God Can Meet Your Needs” was released in 2014, highlighting stories and life lessons from living a life as a community developer.

As a husband, father, grandfather, and leader, J.P. Bailey remained dedicated to building not just structures—but legacies of care, faith, and excellence.
