Changes Home Care

8355 Rockville Rd Suite 35, Indianapolis, IN 46234
Overview of Changes Home Care

Changes Home Care operates in Indianapolis, about 9.2 miles out from downtown, and it covers home care, memory care, and respite care under one roof. Staffing runs on-call 24/7, not just business hours. Walk Score for the area comes in at 48; that’s somewhat walkable, but this is mostly a driving neighborhood.

Here’s the daily reality of what caregivers actually do: bathing, dressing, meal preparation, medication reminders, the stuff that adds up fast when someone’s managing it solo. Errands and light housekeeping fill in around that, and safety assessments happen too, actually checking whether a home setup still works for someone’s current needs. Dementia care runs as its own specialty here, built for clients living with memory loss specifically, not folded in as an afterthought.

The service list breaks down into a handful of core areas: in-home care, safety, companionship, meals and groceries, errands, homemaking, and reminders. That’s a genuinely wide net, covering both the practical logistics of daily life and the more specialized support memory-related conditions require.

What Changes Home Care offers, in the end, is flexibility with real depth behind it: round-the-clock on-call availability, daily personal care, and dementia-specific support, all through a single agency instead of juggling multiple providers. For a family managing a loved one’s changing needs, especially where memory loss is part of the picture, having one point of contact across that whole range is the actual thing being offered here.

Overview of The Good Samaritan Home

Two hundred forty beds across Evansville. That’s the first fact: the size is spread across skilled nursing, assisted living, and three separate memory care buildings. It’s a governmental operation, located at 601 N Boeke Rd, where the Walk Score hits 38. You’re driving to get groceries.

Current census is 119 residents in a 51.8% full facility. The average stay is 164 days. Medicare covers most admissions, usually for short-term post-acute rehab. Medicaid picks up the longer stays. Private pay is also accepted.

The therapy menu is basic: physical, occupational, and speech-language services. For the memory care program, the stated philosophy centers on flexibility and individual autonomy, which matters if you’re placing someone in that unit. Activities run cooking classes, bingo, live entertainment, gardening groups, movie nights, and arts programming. Laundry and housekeeping are on-site. The facility promises 24/7 emergency nursing.

Nursing hours per resident per day total 2 hours and 52 minutes. Registered nurses handle 22 minutes of that. LPNs cover 40 minutes. Nurse aides account for 2 hours and 30 minutes.

The Good Samaritan Home is structured as a mixed-acuity facility. It accepts both short-term rehabilitation admissions and longer-term placements, with dedicated memory care units running alongside. For families in the Evansville area weighing post-acute rehab against longer-term placement options, this is a setting that theoretically accommodates both timelines under one roof.

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.
  • Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly Program: This program provides housing for low-income seniors. It offers rental assistance and access to supportive services, such as cleaning, cooking, and transportation.
  • Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) Properties: While not a direct subsidy, LIHTC encourages developers to create affordable housing. Seniors with low incomes can find reduced-rent apartments through this program.
  • State and Local Programs: Many states, counties, and cities offer their own programs to assist seniors with housing costs. These can include property tax relief programs, rental assistance programs, and programs that offer affordable senior housing options.
  • Veterans Affairs (VA): The VA offers several programs for veterans, including the Aid and Attendance benefit, which provides monthly payments to veterans who require the aid of another person, or are housebound, to help cover the cost of care in homes, nursing homes, and assisted living facilities.
  • Social Security: While Social Security primarily provides retirement income, for many seniors, these benefits are a crucial part of their budget, including housing costs.
How do you pick the homes you recommend?

Before recommending homes, we conduct a thorough evaluation on crucial factors that define a senior home such as the quality of care they provide, the reputation of the organization, and a comprehensive review of community testimonials as well. Every detail is assessed to assure that seniors are offered not just senior care options, but trustworthy homes where they can experience the care that they deserve.

Do you help families that need Medicaid?

Yes. Assisting families who need Medicaid is important to us as it plays a crucial role in offering financial support to seniors confronting economic challenges. We would like to keep essential healthcare services accessible to all community members, irrespective of one’s financial circumstances.

How much does this service cost?

We extend our services at no cost, ensuring that families and seniors can benefit from tailored assistance in their search for care and home options. Our ability to offer personalized guidance without charge to families and seniors is made possible through the support and funding from the communities with which we team up.

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. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

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.

What is memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.
