St Augustine Home for the Aged is a faith-based nursing home located at 2345 W 86th Street on the west side of Indianapolis, Indiana. Operated by the Little Sisters of the Poor of Indianapolis, the 41-bed facility accommodates Medicare and private pay options. Because the community focuses on long-term placement, residents stay for an average of 654 days.
The care model delivers an average of 7 hours of direct nursing care per resident each day, with nurse aides providing 6 hours and 35 minutes of that total. Geographically, the surrounding neighborhood is car-dependent and has a walkability score of 13 out of 100, meaning errands cannot be easily completed on foot. From a regulatory perspective, state inspections have focused on medication management practices and documentation accuracy, with the facility utilizing corrective action plans to manage these administrative areas.
Prospective representatives can reach out to the home’s administration to ask about the faith-based programming, check on current bed availability, or schedule an on-site visit.
A community that is filled with a professional and dedicated care staff who strive to make a difference in their residents’ lives, American Village offers a continuum of nursing home services– respite care, hospice care, skilled nursing, and rehabilitation; as well as focusing on assisted living and memory care service. The elegant nursing home is a resident-centered community, where residents can thrive and reach their fullest potential to be a new version of themselves. American Village strives in ensuring an excellent level of hospital-like service in a comfortable homey environment.
Services at the nursing home are interdisciplinary, focusing on the specific healing process for each resident: outpatient therapy, long-term care, and short-term care; activities and programs focus on functional communication, cognitive skills, and physical movement. As convenience is the heart of their service, medical services and physicians are available in the community.
Marquette Senior Living has been running in Indianapolis for 47 years now, and it’s not just one type of care, it spans independent living, assisted living, memory care, and long-term nursing all on the same campus. It’s a mid-rise, 134-bed. Walk Score comes in at 22, car-dependent; this is a neighborhood where you’re driving for pretty much everything.
Occupancy sits at 93% right now, 124 of the 134 beds filled, and the average stay runs about 97 days. Rehabilitation services and respite care are both available, backed by staffing that runs around the clock. Here’s the number that actually matters for comparison purposes: total nursing care comes out to 4 hours and 41 minutes per resident, per day. On-site healthcare runs through the Lynne O’Day Clinic, so residents aren’t leaving campus for basic medical support.
Physically, there’s a fitness center, courtyards, landscaped gardens, and a handful of dining options. The aquatic center alone is 14,000 square feet, which is a genuinely sizable amenity for a senior living campus, and the Marquette Athletic Center adds another dedicated fitness space on top of that.
On oversight: inspections here have tended to center on medication management, fire safety systems, emergency preparedness, environmental safety, and care planning documentation. Those are the standard areas regulators look at across nursing homes, not unique to this one.
Medicare and private pay are both accepted. What Marquette adds up to is a genuine continuum-of-care campus with nearly five decades behind it, high occupancy, and nursing hours that hold up well, the kind of place built for a family that wants room to move between care levels without starting over somewhere new each time.
