Overview of St Paul’s

Jeffry Billhimer administers St Paul’s, a 181-bed senior living campus located at 3602 South Ironwood Drive in South Bend, Indiana. Managed by Trinity Continuing Care Services-Indiana Inc alongside Director of Nursing Kris Borkowski, this St. Joseph County facility operates at approximately 54 percent occupancy, delivering a comprehensive care continuum that transitions across independent living, assisted living, and memory care.

The campus heavily emphasizes faith-integrated programming, organizing its weekly calendar around regular worship services, Bible study, an internal food pantry program, and community volunteer initiatives. The facility opens to the general public on Sundays for religious services but maintains restricted access for outside visitors during the week. The surrounding environment is completely car-dependent, carrying a walkability score of zero out of 100, which requires vehicles for all external travel.

Family representatives seeking a faith-centered, multi-tiered retirement environment can contact the South Bend administrative office to check current apartment availability and baseline care guidelines.
