Overview of North River Health Campus North River Health Campus sits at 811 E Baseline Rd in Evansville, Indiana, and it’s really five kinds of care under one address. The campus covers nursing home care, assisted living, memory care, independent living, and adult day care, all operated by the Trilogy Health Services group. Getting there means driving. The Walk Score is 11, so this is car territory, not a stroll-to-the-corner-store kind of block.
The campus is young. It’s been open a year, and only 48 of its 95 beds are occupied so far, putting occupancy at 51 percent. Residents stay an average of 76 days, which is short. Short enough that this reads less like a permanent-placement facility and more like a stop on the way somewhere else: rehab, recovery, a bridge back home.
Here’s what the staffing actually looks like, broken down by role. Registered nurses spend about 1 hour and 35 minutes per resident each day. Licensed practical nurses add 29 minutes on top of that. Nurse aides contribute another 1 hour and 45 minutes. Total that up and residents are getting roughly 3 hours and 40 minutes of nursing care daily. On the financial side, North River takes Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, so the door isn’t closed based on how someone’s covered.
Day to day life includes support with basic living activities, access to a library, and private dining rooms rather than one shared cafeteria. That last part matters more than it sounds like it should. Because the campus holds assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing together, residents can move between levels of care as their needs change, instead of packing up and starting over somewhere new.
State inspectors, when they’ve come through, have focused where you’d expect: medication management, infection control, fire safety, and documentation around care planning. Food service, emergency preparedness, and general environmental safety round out what gets checked.
What all of this adds up to is a facility that’s still early, still filling its beds, but already set up with the staffing and payment range to handle a short post-hospital stay just as well as ongoing, long-term nursing care.
