Our editorial team analyzed 289 nursing homes in IN using CMS data, inspection records, complaints, amenities, and facility-level details. How we rank nursing homes in IN
Info below is compiled from CMS reports & the IN Dept. of Health (IDOH), senior community websites & trusted data sources such as Walk Score & BBB.
Communities are listed from highest-ranked to lowest-ranked based on our methodology.

CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, the federal agency that regulates nursing homes) Overall 5-star rating — a composite of Health Inspection, Staffing, and Quality Measures scores. 5 stars = top 10% nationally. 1 star = bottom 10%. The single most important number to start with when comparing facilities.
Care Types in This TableAL (Assisted Living):
Housing with help for daily activities like bathing, dressing, and medication, without 24-hour skilled nursing.
NH (Nursing Home):
24/7 skilled nursing care for residents with complex, ongoing medical needs.
SNF (Skilled Nursing Facility):
Round-the-clock nursing care, often for recovery after surgery, injury, or illness.
MC (Memory Care):
Secured, specialized care for people living with Alzheimer's or dementia.
RC (Respite Care):
Short-term temporary care that gives family caregivers a break.
IL (Independent Living):
Community living with dining, activities, and transportation for active seniors who need little personal care.
HOS (Hospice Care):
Comfort-focused care for those with a terminal illness, prioritizing quality of life over treatment.
ADC (Adult Day Care):
Daytime supervision, health monitoring, and social activities for seniors who live at home.
Neighborhood or city area where the facility is located. Proximity to family, hospitals, and green space matters for both quality of life and ease of visitation. Consider drive time and transit access when evaluating location.
Licensed bed capacity. Larger facilities (300+ beds) often have more specialized programs but can feel institutional. Smaller homes (under 150 beds) tend to deliver more personalized care. Compare with Avg Res/Day to understand how full the facility typically runs.
A 0–100 score of a facility's regulatory inspection record, shown as a letter and compared with other facilities of the same kind in the same state. This is a proprietary Assisted Living Magazine grade. It is not a government rating. A dash means we have no inspection data for that facility.
Percentage of licensed beds filled on an average day. Color indicates financial health: green (90%+) = operationally strong, typically profitable. Amber (80–89%) = stable but leaving revenue on the table. Orange (70–79%) = financial strain likely, may struggle with fixed costs. Red (<70%) = significant distress, closure or ownership change risk increases sharply.
This facility's occupancy rate compared to the statewide average for similar facilities. A positive number means above-average demand. Facilities running 5%+ above the state average are typically the most sought-after in their market — a strong proxy for reputation.
CMS-adjusted total nurse hours per resident per day (RN + LPN + CNA combined). The national average is approximately 3.5 hrs. Higher is better — more direct care time per resident. Below 3.0 is a red flag. CMS weights RN hours more heavily because RNs handle complex clinical decisions that CNAs cannot.
CMS Health Inspection star rating (1–5 stars), based on the 3 most recent annual state surveys plus any complaint investigations. This is the hardest rating to manipulate — it reflects real surveyor findings on-site. 5 stars = fewest deficiencies found. 1 star = most. It carries the heaviest weight in the Overall CMS rating.
CMS Staffing star rating (1–5 stars), based on daily nurse staffing hours submitted to CMS via verified payroll data. Compares RN, LPN, and CNA coverage relative to resident acuity level. 5 stars = well above expected staffing. Weekend staffing is evaluated separately, as that's where many facilities quietly reduce coverage.
CMS Quality Measures star rating (1–5 stars), based on 15 clinical outcome metrics including fall rates, pressure ulcers, antipsychotic drug use, and hospital readmissions. Captures actual resident health outcomes, not just compliance. High QM combined with low Health Inspection scores can indicate a facility with strong care but weak documentation practices.
Registered Nurse hours per resident/day compared to the statewide average. RNs are the highest-skilled nursing staff — they assess residents, manage medications, and respond to emergencies. A value of +50% means RN coverage is 50% above the state norm. Negative values are a concern for residents with complex or acute medical needs.
Total nursing staff hours (RN + LPN + CNA combined) per resident/day vs. the statewide average. A broader measure than RN vs State — it captures the entire care team. A facility can have high total staffing but low RN hours, meaning more aides and fewer nurses. Read both columns together for the full picture.
Total dollar amount of federal monetary fines (civil money penalties) issued by CMS in the past 3 years. Fines are only levied for serious violations — typically actual harm to residents, repeated uncorrected deficiencies, or systemic non-compliance. Even a single fine is noteworthy. Multiple fines strongly suggest a pattern, not isolated incidents.
Total health deficiency citations from the most recent standard inspection cycle. Minor citations (scope A–C) are common and often administrative in nature. Higher counts aren't always disqualifying, but should be read alongside Severe Citations to understand actual harm levels. Under 10 is strong for a large facility; 30+ warrants a closer look.
Average deficiency citations per CMS inspection (survey) in the reporting window — total citations divided by the number of inspections. Lower is better; compare alongside total Citations and Severe Citations for context.
Citations at CMS scope/severity level G or higher — G–I means actual harm occurred; J–L means residents were placed in immediate jeopardy. (D–F is potential for harm only). Examples include unaddressed falls, medication errors causing injury, neglect, or abuse.
Average number of residents in the building on any given day, derived from annual census data. Reflects true operating scale — a 400-bed facility running 200 residents/day operates very differently from one at 390. Higher resident counts generally mean more funded staffing hours.
Better Business Bureau rating (A+ to F). Reflects complaint history, business transparency, and how family disputes were resolved. A+ means no significant unresolved complaints. A blank (—) means the facility isn't BBB-accredited, which is common for healthcare providers and not necessarily a negative signal.
Walk Score® (0–100). Measures walkability of the surrounding area. 90–100 = Walker's Paradise. 70–89 = Very Walkable. 50–69 = Somewhat Walkable. Below 50 = Car-Dependent. Higher scores benefit family visitors, resident outings, and staff commuting.
The licensed owner or operator of record filed with CMS — the individual or organization legally accountable for the facility. Searching the operator name across other facilities can reveal chain or multi-site ownership, which matters: chain-operated homes tend to have more variable quality outcomes than independently run facilities.
What the home actually collects for resident care, after contractual allowances, bad debt and discounts — not gross billings. Taken from the latest complete annual cost report, so it is comparable across homes reporting the same period. Revenue alone doesn't indicate care quality, but it funds staffing and capital reinvestment. Pair with Payroll %. Figures are from each facility's most recent complete fiscal year — hover a value for the exact year; a * marks homes that report an older period than most facilities.
Staff salaries plus wage-related benefits from the latest complete annual cost report. Contract and agency labour is counted separately, under other operating costs, so a home leaning on agency staff can show a low figure here. Payroll is the cost most directly tied to care quality — compare with Payroll % for full context. Figures are from each facility's most recent complete fiscal year — hover a value for the exact year; a * marks homes that report an older period than most facilities.
Payroll as a share of NET PATIENT REVENUE (not gross revenue). Both figures come from the same cost-report year. A higher figure means more of each revenue dollar goes to staff pay. Read with the Staffing star rating to judge whether spend translates into coverage — and note that homes whose patient revenue covers only part of their operation can read implausibly high. The Indiana average is: 51.1% Figures are from each facility's most recent complete fiscal year — hover a value for the exact year; a * marks homes that report an older period than most facilities.
CMS Certification Number: the unique federal identifier for this skilled nursing provider.
Rank badges are statewide and care-type specific: each nursing home is ranked against every other IN nursing home we track that reports that metric, not just the 289 on this page. See how we rank facilities
Nursing time at Majestic Care of New Haven lands at 2 hours and 41 minutes per resident each day, spread over 120 beds. Outpatient Therapy and Aquatic Therapy are named rehabilitation programs. Dialysis Care is listed too, which keeps a standing treatment inside the building instead of on the road.
Think of somebody who lives alone and has just come through an illness. Nobody is there to notice a problem at hour three of a bad afternoon, and a rehabilitation stay restores the noticing.
Respite occasionally has nothing to do with the caregiver at all. A furnace fails in January or a bathroom is gutted, and the house stops being somewhere a frail person can stay.
Hospice care rearranges the family’s job. Chasing appointments falls away, and being in the room is what is left.
Skilled nursing means somebody licensed is awake at the hours the household is not. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted. Adams County Memorial Hospital operates the community, and Lorri Maples serves as administrator.
The Villages at Historic Silvercrest offers nursing home, assisted living, independent living, respite care, and skilled nursing in New Albany, Indiana. Independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care, while assisted living supports daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication management. Nursing home and skilled nursing provide licensed nursing care on site around the clock, and respite care offers a short stay when someone’s usual caregiver needs to travel or recover.
Several care levels are available within one community, so a resident whose needs grow may be able to move to a different level of care without leaving. With 108 beds, the community has a mid sized residential setting without implying a specific staffing or programming model. The combination of care levels and respite care may suit a resident whose needs may change over time or whose usual caregiver needs a short break.
Total nurse staffing is 3 hours and 15 minutes per resident per day, representing the amount of daily nurse staffing assigned per resident. Rehabilitation services and short term rehabilitation provide a temporary setting for recovery focused care, while transportation services can support trips beyond the community. A pool, walking paths, a resident garden, a salon, and chef prepared meals give residents options for recreation, outdoor time, personal grooming, and dining on site.
The area has a Walk Score of 81 out of 100, meaning it is very walkable and most errands can be done on foot; a resident who no longer drives can still reach nearby errands independently. Pets are allowed, so a resident can bring a pet to the community. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted. Stephanie Miller serves as administrator, and the community is operated by Board Of Trustees Of The Flavius J Witham Memorial.
Spring Mill Meadows operates out of the North Willow Farms neighborhood of Indianapolis, IN, with five care types on its license. Those are respite care, independent living, hospice care, nursing home care, and skilled nursing. Both nursing designations here carry licensed nursing. Hospice care turns toward comfort once someone is near the end of life.
Independent living asks nothing of the resident beyond living there, with the community’s services attached. Respite care fills the gap when a hospital is ready to discharge somebody, and the family caregiver is not ready to be there for them.
A short stay or a long nursing stay are the two reasons a family arrives at a place like this. One hundred and thirty beds fall under it, and the nursing figure set against each resident’s day is 3 hours and 35 minutes.
A 68 Walk Score rates as somewhat walkable, and some of the errand runs stay walkable for a resident without a car or someone to drive them. Most families arrive under one payment route and leave under another. Medicare covers a short skilled stretch after a hospital stay, Medicaid comes in where savings fall short of a long one, and private pay is money straight from the family. Taylor Shuey is the administrator, and Health and Hospital Corporation of Marion County operates the community.
