Overview of Riverwalk Communities

Riverwalk Communities sits at 401 SE 6th St in downtown Evansville, Indiana, and it is hard to overstate how close Select Specialty Hospital is: 0.06 miles, essentially a short walk. For a Medicaid-accepting assisted living and adult day care community, that proximity is a practical detail worth knowing. The neighborhood earns a Walk Score of 71, meaning most errands are also reachable on foot. The facility is operated by Amehealth (Evansville) Inc, with Katie Goldsberry as administrator and Robb Shipley as Director of Nursing.

Riverwalk Communities is newly established, its license having been issued in early 2025. Of 113 beds, 82 are currently filled, putting occupancy at 73%.

Services confirmed in structured data include rehabilitation and short-term rehab, licensed nurses and CNAs, 24-hour staffing, daily living assistance, and companionship and socialization programs. The facility participates in the Medicaid Waiver Program and accepts Medicaid as the confirmed payment pathway. Fitness and recreation are available, and pets are allowed.

State inspections have tended to focus on medication management and care planning and documentation. For families seeking Medicaid-funded assisted living or adult day care in downtown Evansville with immediate hospital access and a walkable urban location, Riverwalk Communities covers the functional bases in a newly opened setting.

North River Health Campus

811 E Baseline Rd, Evansville, IN 47725
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.

River Pointe Health Campus

3001 Galaxy Dr, Evansville, IN 47715
Overview of River Pointe Health Campus

River Pointe Health Campus offers nursing home, assisted living, respite care and skilled nursing in Evansville, IN. Nursing home and skilled nursing care provide licensed nursing care on site around the clock, while assisted living provides help with daily tasks in a private living space. Respite care supports a short stay, which may suit a family whose usual caregiver needs time away or recovery. The combination may be a good fit for a resident whose care needs may change over time or a family seeking temporary support.

The community has 124 beds in an apartment-style setting, with studio and one-bedroom options. A studio provides a single private living space, while a one-bedroom apartment provides separate sleeping and living areas. Pets are allowed, so a resident may be able to keep a pet with them.

Total nurse staffing is 3h 51m per resident/day, representing daily hands-on nurse time allocated to each resident. Payment options are Medicare, Medicaid and private pay. Medicare applies to short-term skilled care after a hospital stay, Medicaid may help when savings do not cover a long stay, and private pay means paying directly.

A Walk Score of 52 is described as somewhat walkable, with some errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives may be able to reach some nearby destinations independently. Jordan Shots serves as administrator, and Good Samaritan Hospital operates the community.
