Kendallville Manor is a 60-bed CMS-certified skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility at 1802 E Dowling Street in Kendallville, Indiana. Administered by Anthony L. Hill, the community serves Noble County with a service model that includes short-term rehabilitation, long-term care, and respite services.
The facility provides licensed medical care under federal Medicare and Medicaid frameworks, primarily focusing on post-acute recovery with a high volume of Medicare-supported admissions. While historical data reflects a 4-star overall CMS rating, current 2026 filings show that the facility maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of zero based on its most recent standard health and safety surveys. Occupancy is notably strong at approximately 83%, often reaching full capacity due to consistent local demand for its 60 certified beds.
Direct bedside support is provided 24/7 by a nursing team, with a staffing model that prioritizes Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) hours slightly above state norms. Clinical outcomes are highlighted by exceptional preventive care, maintaining a 100% medication follow-up regimen and vaccination rates that trend significantly above Indiana benchmarks.
The clinical team coordinates specialized physical, occupational, and speech-language pathology tailored to help residents regain independence after surgery or illness. Furthermore, the community provides expertise in wound healing, cardiac care, and respiratory support, maintaining a zero percent fall-with-major-injury rate for short-term services.
The facility features spacious living areas and private bathrooms equipped with 24-hour emergency call systems. All-inclusive monthly services cover chef-prepared meals served in social dining areas, weekly housekeeping, and personal laundry. Shared community spaces include a library, an arts and crafts studio, a fitness center, and a vibrant game room. Residents can enjoy beautifully landscaped grounds and tranquil outdoor walking paths, while the social calendar features daily wellness workshops, movie nights, and community outings.
For medical appointments and errands, the facility provides scheduled transportation to ensure residents remain connected to the Kendallville area. Prospective residents seeking a fully occupied, community-focused center with strong clinical stability and high vaccination performance may find this setting appropriate. Interested individuals should contact the administrator directly to discuss current licensed nurse staffing and schedule a tour to assess the 2026 quality performance firsthand.
