Charter Senior Living of Hobbs Station is a 96-bed for-profit assisted living and memory care community at 2749 Pearson Parkway in Plainfield, Indiana. Managed by Plainfield Healthcare Operations, LLC and led by administrator LaShelle Crawley and Director of Nursing Stephanie Washington, the facility serves Hendricks County under a license issued in January 2025. The community provides personalized assisted living, memory care, and respite services within a brand-new, purpose-built environment.
The community operates under a state-licensed residential model providing 24-hour healthcare oversight and localized coordination for seniors. While the facility does not participate in federal CMS star ratings, current 2026 filings show that the community maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of zero based on its most recent standard health and safety monitoring. At the initial April 2025 licensure survey, two documentation-related deficiencies were noted regarding bed rail assessments and medication labeling, which were corrected as the facility established its operational systems. Current occupancy is approximately 8%, with 8 of 96 beds filled, reflecting the early stages of a community building its resident census.
Direct bedside support is provided 24/7 by a professional team of licensed nurses and Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs). The clinical model focuses on enhancing resident wellness through personalized support and specialized memory care programming for those with cognitive decline. Although specific public data on long-term clinical outcomes is limited due to the community’s recent opening, the facility carries a BBB A- rating and utilizes 24-hour staffing to ensure resident safety and response. Because the location is primarily car-dependent with a Walk Score of 8, the facility coordinates transportation to ensure residents maintain access to medical specialists and local community resources.
The facility features modern residential floor plans designed specifically for assisted living and memory care safety. All-inclusive monthly services typically cover meals, housekeeping, and personal laundry, allowing residents to focus on social and enriching programs.
Shared community spaces are designed for social interaction and specialized memory support, though detailed amenity expansion plans are often discussed during on-site tours. The social calendar is managed by on-site staff to promote cognitive engagement and physical wellness within the secure residential environment.
Those seeking a brand-new, small-scale environment during a facility’s initial growth phase may find this community appropriate. Interested individuals should contact the administrator directly to discuss the current census trajectory, staffing ratios, and planned service expansions to assess 2026 quality performance firsthand.
Wesleyan Health Care Center is a 155-bed nonprofit skilled nursing and rehabilitation community in Marion, Indiana, providing skilled nursing, memory care, assisted living, respite care, and rehabilitation services to residents across Grant County. The facility is operated by Riverview Hospital, with VA-contracted skilled nursing beds and an on-site dialysis unit among its more specialized offerings.
CMS rates Wesleyan at 3 stars overall, at the Indiana average, with a staffing rating 17.6% above the state benchmark, driving the composite score up while the health inspection sub-rating pulls it down.
Nurse aide hours average 2 hours and 39 minutes per resident per day, about 17% above the Indiana average, though total nursing hours, averaging 3 hours and 21 minutes, are modestly below the state’s 3 hours and 32 minutes average due to lower RN and LPN time.
Across its inspection record, the facility’s deficiency rate per inspection is 42% below the Indiana average, a meaningful signal relative to its total citation count, which is 3% above the state average. The most recent annual survey, conducted in December 2024, cited seven deficiencies, including a resident fall resulting in a fracture, and led to a $9,000 civil money penalty.
Three complaint investigations conducted in 2025 found no deficiencies, suggesting a recent improvement trend. Amenities and services include enclosed courtyards and gardens, a life enrichment center, salon and spa services, and restaurant-style dining with a private dining room.
The facility’s in-house dialysis unit, opened following a Life Safety pre-occupancy survey in May 2024, sets Wesleyan apart from most community SNFs in the Marion area. Its VA contract status makes it one of the few area facilities eligible to serve eligible veterans.
Wesleyan Health Care Center is best suited for medically complex long-stay residents, particularly those requiring dialysis, memory care, or VA-funded skilled nursing, in a mid-size nonprofit setting in north-central Indiana.

Avalon Senior Living is a 231-bed for-profit community at 6021 S. Arlington Avenue in Indianapolis, Indiana. Operated by Avalon Senior Living LLC and led by administrator Jerrilynn Morehous and Director of Nursing Marcella Christian, the facility serves the South Franklin neighborhood under a license active through March 2026. The campus provides assisted living, memory care, and respite services within a large-scale residential setting.
The facility provides 24-hour medical oversight and localized care coordination. While no CMS star rating applies, current 2026 data shows a citations-per-inspection rate of zero based on the most recent complaint investigations. Historical records from 2024 to early 2025 noted past challenges in elopement prevention policies and first-aid staffing coverage, which prompted the implementation of corrective protocols. Occupancy is approximately 32%, with 75 of 231 beds filled, reflecting a steady census increase since the 2024 inaugural survey.
Direct support is coordinated 24/7 by a team led by Marcella Christian. The clinical model integrates 24-hour nursing and specialized memory care, though previous inspections highlighted the need for improved medication monitoring and water temperature regulation. Specifically, a 2024 elopement incident led to the formalization of secured unit supervision policies and staff retraining. Current clinical tracking emphasizes resident weight monitoring, physician notification for condition changes, and accurate medication disposition documentation.
Residential units are designed for accessibility within a newer building that offers some on-foot access to nearby amenities, holding a Walk Score of 59. All-inclusive monthly services cover meals, housekeeping, and personal laundry.
Shared spaces support social interaction and specialized memory programming, with on-site staff managing a calendar focused on cognitive engagement and wellness. The facility does not explicitly list Medicaid acceptance and focuses on a private-pay resident model.
Those seeking a large-scale environment with resort-style features may find this setting appropriate. Interested individuals should discuss current elopement prevention protocols, secured unit staffing levels, and medication monitoring with the administrator to assess 2026 quality performance firsthand.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Indiana
What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Indiana?
Assisted living in Indiana supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.
What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Indiana?
Assisted living in Indiana is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.
Does Indiana Medicaid cover assisted living?
Indiana Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Indiana) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
What is assisted living?
Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.
How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?
This page features 327 assisted living facilities in Indiana. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.
How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Indiana?
Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Indiana, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.
What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Indiana?
Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
