Overview of The Waters of Castleton Skilled Nursing Facility

The Waters of Castleton Skilled Nursing Facility is a 114-bed skilled nursing and rehabilitation community in Indianapolis, Indiana, offering short- and long-term rehabilitation, memory care, and respite services. It is operated by The Waters of Castleton Skilled Nursing Facility LLC and has been operating for approximately 20 years. It accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and private pay.

CMS rates the facility 2 stars overall, driven primarily by 1-star Health Inspection and 1-star Staffing ratings, both of which are substantially below the Indiana average. Nurse staffing averages 2 hours and 24 minutes per resident per day, compared with the state’s average of 3 hours and 32 minutes, placing the facility 276th out of 287 Indiana SNFs on adjusted staffing.

The inspection record reflects significant compliance challenges: back-to-back 2023 surveys cited 14 deficiencies in resident care — including substantiated findings of verbal and sexual abuse, medication errors, and grievance-handling failures — as well as 18 life safety code violations. The 2024 annual survey added 8 more deficiencies, including 12 days without required RN coverage. Early 2025 complaint investigations cited 9 further deficiencies related to dignity, wound care documentation, and medication management. The most recent inspection in May 2025 found full compliance. No fines or immediate jeopardy findings appear in the available records.

Quality measures are a counterpoint. The facility’s 4-star Quality Measures rating is 23.5% above the Indiana average, reflecting stronger performance on clinical outcome indicators such as hospital readmissions and functional improvement. Clinical programs include Memory Springs for dementia care, Comprehensive Wound Care, and Respiratory Services, as well as the rehabilitation tracks Living Well and In Motion.

The facility’s occupancy rate of 46% — well below the state’s 68% average — indicates that most room types are currently available.

The Waters of Castleton Skilled Nursing Facility is best suited to residents in Indianapolis who require short- or long-term skilled nursing and post-acute rehabilitation, particularly those whose care needs align with its capacity for wound care and respiratory services. However, families should carefully review the facility’s staffing levels and inspection history before making a placement decision.

Overview of Plainfield Health Care Center

Plainfield Health Care Center is a 189-bed skilled nursing and rehabilitation community at 3700 Clarks Creek Rd in Plainfield, Indiana, offering skilled nursing, short-term rehabilitation, memory care, and respite services. The facility is operated by Plainfield Care Center, LLC, and has served the area for nearly 30 years.

CMS rates the facility at 2 stars overall — 33.6% below the Indiana average — driven largely by inspection and staffing performance. Total nursing hours average 2 hours and 41 minutes per resident per day, placing the facility 254th out of 287 Indiana SNFs. Quality Measures, by contrast, are 23.5% above the state average, a meaningful split in an otherwise below-average profile.

The inspection record carries the most weight in evaluating this facility. Over the past four years, it has averaged 15.5 deficiencies per year, compared with Indiana’s average of 4.2. A March 2024 Immediate Jeopardy finding — in which a cognitively impaired resident with Alzheimer’s dementia exited a second-story window and sustained serious fractures due to inadequate supervision — represents the most serious single event in the recent record. The facility corrected the IJ, and subsequent standard surveys in April and June 2025 showed compliance. No fines or license actions appear in the available reports.

The facility’s amenities include patio seating, a beauty salon, a resident library, and a quiet room. Clinical services include Sound Telemedicine, wound care, and a certified RN wound care nurse on staff.

Plainfield Health Care Center’s rehabilitation capacity, short-term private rooms, and acceptance of Medicare and Medicaid make it well-suited to post-acute and short-stay residents in the Plainfield and Hendricks County area. Families considering memory care placement should weigh the 2024 elopement finding against the facility’s recent compliance trend.

Overview of Kingston Care Center of Fort Wayne

Kingston Care Center of Fort Wayne is a 137-bed, privately owned skilled nursing and memory care community at 1010 W. Washington Center Road in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The facility serves Allen County residents across a continuum of care, including assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and short-term rehabilitation, with 24-hour nursing coverage and respite care. It is operated by Kingston Care Center of Fort Wayne, LLC.

Over four years of inspection data, Kingston has recorded 10.3 deficiencies per year — roughly 145% above Indiana’s average of 4.2. An immediate jeopardy finding in February 2023 involved a morphine overdose that caused respiratory distress and required emergent treatment. A separate substantiated verbal abuse complaint from May 2023 led to the staff member’s separation. No fines or license actions appear in the available reports.

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 31 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.
