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.
Operated by Hancock Regional Hospital and administered by Robert Newcomer, Hooverwood is a nursing home in Indianapolis, Indiana. The 183-bed facility is on Hoover Road in a car-dependent part of the city. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted, giving families several options for covering rehabilitation services and ongoing skilled nursing care. The community has an occupancy rate of 70%, and residents stay an average of 191 days, including post-acute rehabilitation patients and those receiving longer-term nursing care.
Rehabilitation services are supported by a strong nursing presence throughout the facility. Daily nurse staffing averages 5 hours and 8 minutes per resident. Registered nurses provide 36 minutes of care per resident each day, nurse aides contribute another 36 minutes, and LPN/LVN staff add 56 minutes of support. This substantial level of hands-on care reflects the community’s emphasis on nursing-level services.
Residents have access to several specialized programs beyond traditional skilled nursing care. These include the Shalom Sanctuary program for elder abuse support, outpatient therapy and wellness services, private duty services, hospice care, and an assisted living component located within Kraft Commons.
Daily life is enriched through spiritual programming, health and wellness activities, and an on-site beauty salon and barbershop. The dining program features home-cooked kosher-style meals served at breakfast, lunch, and dinner, along with healthy snacks throughout the day.
State inspections have identified concerns involving emergency preparedness, life safety systems, and resident safety practices. These findings highlight areas that have required additional attention from the facility. Families considering Hooverwood should ask about emergency system maintenance, resident safety procedures, and the measures used to support safe daily care.
