Overview of Ashton Creek Health and Rehabilitation Center

Ashton Creek Health and Rehabilitation Center is a 139-bed nursing home in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Owned by Aaron Grindstaff and operated under Riverview Hospital, the facility maintains an 80 percent occupancy rate and accepts Medicare and private pay. Residents stay here for an average of 73 days, which reflects a strong structural focus on short-term post-hospital recovery and acute rehabilitation stays.

The clinical roster indicates an average of 3 hours and 26 minutes of direct nursing care per resident each day, including 52 minutes of dedicated time by registered nurses. This 24-hour staffing team coordinates short-term rehab, orthopedic recovery, temporary respite programs, and daily personal care assistance, such as bathing and dressing.

For daily amenities, the campus features restaurant-style dining with chef-prepared meals, laundry services, and organized family events. Because the local neighborhood has a walkability score of 1 out of 100, the location is car-dependent, though the facility offers personal transportation services to help manage travel.

Families can get in touch with the admissions desk to verify room availability, ask about the personal transportation schedules, or arrange a time to visit the campus. The front office can also break down the billing process and provide the initial enrollment paperwork.

Staff typeHours / Day / Residentvs state avg
Registered Nurse (RN) Info RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes. 52m per day ▲ 30% State avg: 40m per day · National avg: 41m per day
LPN / LVN Info Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care. 44m per day ▼ 5% State avg: 46m per day · National avg: 52m per day
Nurse Aide Info Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility.

Weekend RN Info Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent. 51m per day ▲ 88% State avg: 27m per day · National avg: 29m per day
