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.
Ashton Creek Health and Rehabilitation Center is legally operated by Riverview Hospital, and administrated by Derek Gibson.
