Overview of Terrace at Solarbron The

The Terrace at Solarbron is a 161-bed senior care campus managed by Good Samaritan Hospital that integrates independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing. The property tracks an average stay of 26 days for its post-acute rehab clients, drawing its overall population from private-pay (66%), Medicaid (35%), and Medicare (5%) sources. Financial records reveal a tight operational baseline, with the property showing a 2023 business loss of $540.6 thousand (a negative 3.1% profit margin). Management routes 50.1% of its gross revenue back into payroll, supporting daily services across a building that currently operates at a 62% occupancy rate.

State data reveal a history of mixed clinical outcomes and notable building safety violations, alongside recent compliance corrections. Residents receive an average of 3 hours and 41 minutes of direct care daily, which sits 21% below the Indiana average, with registered nurse hours trailing the state benchmark by 25%. On the compliance side, the property has averaged 7 citations per year over a four-year window, though it carries zero federal financial fines. While April and June 2025 follow-up inspections found the facility back in full compliance, a December 2024 review flagged five serious life safety issues, including unmaintained fire extinguishers and missing alarm paperwork.

Prior to 2023 and 2024 inspections cited a total of 13 deficiencies, highlighting bathing gaps, medication tracking errors, and an improper mechanical lift transfer that caused a resident’s bone fracture. Clinical charts report strong results for long-stay depression management, but permanent resident files show higher-than-average rates for major injury falls and antipsychotic prescriptions, while short-stay records show high hospital re-admission numbers.

Individuals checking out regional continuing-care campuses or post-acute therapy options can examine these state tracking data to assess the operator’s current history. The public reports outline a quiet, under-occupied facility that has cleared its most recent inspection checks, but continues to manage thin daily nursing hours, a history of building safety citations, and uneven short-term rehabilitation recovery metrics.

Overview of Lincolnshire Place – Muncie

Lincolnshire Place – Muncie is a 49-bed licensed assisted living and memory care community at 1600 N Morrison Road in Muncie, Indiana. Managed by MCC of Muncie, LLC and led by licensed administrator Catherine Hansard, the facility serves Delaware County with a service model specifically for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia.

The community operates under a state-licensed residential model, providing 24-hour medical oversight and localized healthcare coordination for residents with specialized memory support needs. While state-licensed communities do not hold federal CMS star ratings, current 2026 filings show the facility maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of zero based on its most recent standard health and safety surveys. Occupancy stands at approximately 84%, reflecting steady growth and local demand for its specialized memory support beds. For eligible residents, the facility accepts the Indiana PathWays for Aging Waiver (formerly A&D) and the CHOICE Program.

Nursing and certified staff are available 24/7 to manage medication administration, assist with activities of daily living, and provide 24-hour security monitoring via camera systems. The clinical team coordinates specialized dementia-focused care plans that integrate “Life Skills” programming and sensory engagement, such as pet therapy and musical events, to preserve cognitive function and resident dignity. To ensure safety, the community utilizes keypad entry systems and emergency response alarms in each suite, with staff trained to manage behavioral distress associated with memory impairment.

The facility features private and shared bedroom options designed for safety and ease of navigation. Starting monthly pricing is approximately $3,700 for shared accommodations, which includes three chef-prepared meals daily in an activity-focused dining area.

Daily life is supported by diverse shared spaces, including an activity kitchen, a craft room, and a full-service beauty shop. For social engagement, the facility provides a movie theater, an on-site diner, and an outdoor courtyard for safe physical movement. The campus provides regular housekeeping, personal laundry, and scheduled transportation for community outings and local medical appointments within the Muncie area.

Prospective residents seeking a structured, secure environment with specialized expertise in dementia care and high occupancy may find this setting appropriate. Interested individuals should contact the administrator directly to discuss current staffing ratios and schedule a tour to assess the 2026 quality performance and memory care neighborhoods firsthand.

Overview of Westminster Village North

Westminster Village North occupies a 299-bed campus on Presbyterian Drive in Indianapolis’s Lawrence-Fort Ben-Oaklandon neighborhood, operated by Hancock Regional Hospital. The facility spans four levels of care: nursing home, assisted living, independent living, and memory care, making it one of the broader care-continuum options in the area. The neighborhood itself is car-dependent with a Walk Score of 16, so residents and visiting families should plan accordingly.

Occupancy sits at 66%, with 198 of 299 beds filled. The average length of stay is 136 days, which puts the facility at the intersection of post-acute recovery and longer-term residential living. It’s the kind of community where short-stay rehabilitation residents share a building with people who’ve been there for years.

Nursing care totals 3 hours and 44 minutes per resident per day: 1 hour 47 minutes from nurse aides, 28 minutes each from LPN/LVNs and RNs. Executive Director Ruth Fuchs, Medical Director David Tetrick, and Director of Nursing Farah Thomas lead the facility’s clinical and operational teams.

The dining program is a genuine differentiator. Restaurant-style meals with chef-inspired cuisine, a Starbucks Café, a Bistro, and structured accommodations for special dietary needs add up to more than most nursing home profiles show. The Culinary Offerings program and Life Enrichment program give formal shape to the food and activities sides of daily life. Fitness and wellness centers and landscaped walking trails round out the amenities.

State inspections have historically focused on medication management, infection prevention and control, care planning and documentation, and fall and injury prevention. The facility accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. At 299 beds with a hospital operator, a full care continuum, and an amenity package that leans noticeably upmarket, Westminster Village North is positioned for residents who want institutional depth alongside lifestyle-oriented services.

Woodmont Health Campus

1325 N Rockport Rd, Boonville, IN 47601
Overview of Woodmont Health Campus

Woodmont Health Campus sits in Boonville, Indiana, and it’s doing a lot under one roof. Nursing home care, skilled nursing, assisted living, memory care, adult day services, respite care. That means a family doesn’t have to move someone across town when their needs shift from “needs a little help” to “needs a lot of help.”

The building itself is single-story, which matters more than people think when someone’s using a walker. It’s been running for 25 years, has 99 beds, and right now about 54 of them are filled, putting occupancy around 55%. Housing comes in a studio setup. Nursing coverage breaks down to roughly three hours of total nursing care per resident per day, spread across RNs, LPNs, and nurse aides, and staffing runs 24 hours. There’s also short-term rehab on-site, which is the kind of thing that matters a lot if someone’s coming out of a hospital stay and needs to rebuild strength before going home.

On the lifestyle side, there’s a salon, a bistro, a private dining room, a resident garden, and onsite laundry. Small stuff, but it adds up to daily life feeling less like an institution. Just know that the area itself is car-dependent (Walk Score of 19), so this isn’t a “stroll to the coffee shop” kind of neighborhood.

Payment-wise, Woodmont takes Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, which covers most people’s situations. And on the regulatory side, inspections here have centered on infection control and emergency preparedness, which are two of the most commonly reviewed areas in nursing home oversight nationally. This is a full-spectrum care campus with a quarter-century track record, built for residents whose needs might change rather than stay fixed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What government services provide money for senior housing?

Several government programs offer financial assistance for senior housing in various countries, focusing on the United States for a broad overview:

  • Medicaid: Medicaid is a state and federally funded program that can cover the costs of nursing home care for those who meet eligibility criteria, including income and asset limits. Some states also offer Medicaid waivers that help pay for home and community-based services to prevent or delay nursing home placement.
  • Medicare: Medicare, primarily a health insurance program for people aged 65 and over, does not cover long-term housing costs. However, it can cover short-term stays in a skilled nursing facility under specific conditions following a hospital stay.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care 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.

Does Indiana Medicaid cover memory care?

Indiana Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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.
