Creasy Springs Health Campus

1750 S Creasy Ln, Lafayette, IN 47905
Overview of Creasy Springs Health Campus

Creasy Springs Health Campus operates a 133-bed facility at 1750 South Creasy Lane in Lafayette, Tippecanoe County, Indiana, under Trilogy Healthcare of Lafayette LLC (a Hancock Regional Hospital subsidiary). Administered by Justin Rife, the community sits 3.8 miles from downtown Lafayette in a somewhat walkable neighborhood (Walk Score 40), with immediate hospital access to Franciscan Health Lafayette, just 0.1 miles away.

Current occupancy stands at 48%, notably below the Indiana average of 68.1%, with average resident stays running 44 days. The facility accepts Medicare (52% of new admissions), Medicaid, and private pay, serving predominantly short-term rehabilitation patients.

Four years of inspection data reveal a facility navigating persistent operational gaps.

Between October 2022 and June 2025, Creasy Springs accumulated 36 deficiencies across 18 regulatory visits; matching the Indiana average in total count. The February 2025 annual recertification survey uncovered 12 deficiencies spanning medication administration errors, failure to respect resident dignity during care, incomplete documentation of care plans, and infection control lapses. A December 2023 federal penalty of $8,000 marked a civil money fine for regulatory violations; no subsequent fines or payment denials have been issued.

Complaint investigations throughout the period, nine visits addressing various allegations, consistently found no substantiated deficiencies, a pattern suggesting that resident and family concerns, while raised, did not translate to regulatory violations. The June 2025 complaint investigation yielded zero deficiencies, indicating recent compliance improvement.

Nursing hours average 3 hours 41 minutes per resident per day, exceeding Indiana norms by 56.9%, with weekend RN presence running 107% above state average. This elevated staffing presence does not align with deficiency rates, suggesting organizational or workflow challenges rather than simple understaffing.

Confirmed services include in-house therapy, transportation, fitness programming, and pet-friendly accommodations.

Short-stay discharge outcomes merit attention: 69.4% of rehabilitation residents successfully return home, substantially better than Indiana’s 50.6% average. Conversely, short-stay ED visit rates (15.5%) and major fall injury rates (1.6%) exceed state benchmarks, indicating potential gaps in discharge safety planning or acute event management.

The facility suits short-term post-acute care residents in a community with elevated staffing investment and mixed compliance results, where recent months show deficiency resolution but where documented care gaps warrant direct review before admission.

It is operated by Wooddale Hospital, with Joseph Doran serving as administrator. The community serves residents requiring skilled nursing care, short-term rehabilitation, or extended residential accommodation.

Over four years of state inspections, the facility received 56 deficiencies, 56 percent above the Indiana nursing home average. A substantiated complaint from November 2022 documented failure to provide ordered wound care and inadequate supervision of a cognitively impaired resident, resulting in elopement. Recent inspection cycles conducted in early 2025, however, document zero deficiencies and verified compliance.

Registered nurse presence averages 1 hour 8 minutes per resident per day, running 70 percent above state benchmarks. Licensed practical nurses and certified nursing assistants provide 24/7 support, contributing to above-average total nursing hours relative to state comparison.

Currently, 47 residents occupy beds in the facility’s 138-bed census, reflecting 34 percent occupancy and immediate availability for placement.

Respite care and short-term rehabilitation services are available to qualifying Medicare and Medicaid residents.

Emergency response systems in each resident room and secured entry points in designated areas support resident safety.

Since 1992, the facility has operated continuously in South Bend; Southfield Village suits residents requiring short-term post-acute nursing rehabilitation or longer-term skilled care.

The facility’s notably low census suggests current availability may exceed present placement demand in the market.

How many senior communities are listed on this page?

This page features 578 senior communities in Indiana. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right senior community 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.

What should I look for when visiting senior communities 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.
