Overview of Lutheran Life Villages

Lutheran Life Villages provides nursing home, skilled nursing, assisted living, independent living, and memory care in Kendallville, Indiana. Nursing home and skilled nursing care include licensed nursing support around the clock, while assisted living helps with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication in a private apartment. Independent living offers private living for residents who do not need daily care, and memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering.

The range of care levels may be a good fit for a resident whose needs may grow over time, because care can change without moving to another community. The community has 99 beds. Total nurse staffing is 4 hours and 10 minutes per resident per day, representing the daily nurse staffing time allocated to each resident.

Respite care provides a short stay when a family’s usual caregiver needs to travel or recover, while short term rehabilitation supports recovery after an illness or procedure. Rehabilitation services are available within the community, so residents receiving them do not need arrangements at a separate location. Meals are made fresh and cooked from scratch, with a licensed dietician supervising accommodations for unique dietary needs.

Residents can use the secure courtyard for outdoor time, while chapel services and pastoral care provide religious support. Daily Life Enrichment, Activity Program, and Foster Grandparents are also available. Payment options include Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, with Medicare relevant to eligible short term skilled care after a hospital stay and Medicaid relevant when savings may not cover a longer stay. A Walk Score of 71 means the area is very walkable, with most errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives may still reach nearby shops, a pharmacy, or cafes independently. Sadie Fenstermaker serves as administrator, and Adams County Memorial Hospital operates the community.

The community currently has an occupancy rate of about 52%, with 39 residents living in the 75 available beds.

Inspections conducted by the Indiana Department of Health’s Division of Long Term Care have identified issues related to safety equipment, infection-control procedures, and aspects of resident dignity and grooming. Corrective measures were implemented in response to these findings.

Overview of Allisonville Meadows Assisted Living

Allisonville Meadows is a senior living community on Allisonville Road in Fishers, Indiana. It offers three kinds of care in one building: assisted living, memory care, and respite care. That matters because a resident can move between these types of care without packing up and leaving. No need to find a whole new place if needs change down the road.

This is a car neighborhood. The Walk Score sits at 18, which is low. Grabbing milk or getting to a pharmacy means driving there. Don’t expect to stroll down the block to run errands.

The building holds 150 beds, and right now 115 of them are filled. That works out to 77% occupancy, so about 35 rooms are still open. Kaitlin Buenavides runs the day-to-day administration. Anastasha Scherer serves as Director of Nursing. Residential Care Xi, LLC owns and operates the facility.

Pets are welcome here. Families don’t have to leave a dog or cat behind when someone moves in.

The Indiana Department of Health inspects places like this one on a regular basis. For Allisonville Meadows, past reviews have touched on things like medication handling, how staff keep care records, and food service. These are common areas that inspectors check at senior communities across the state, not anything specific to just this facility.

Three types of care, a doctor and nursing lead in place, and beds still open. Getting there means a car ride, not a walk. Families weighing this option will want to factor in both the setting and the care mix before deciding.

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.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 294 memory care communities in Indiana. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care 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. Tour at least two or three communities in Indiana, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting memory care 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. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
