Overview of Lewis Memorial Christian Village

Hickory Point Christian Village, Inc. operates Lewis Memorial Christian Village, a faith-led, 19-acre senior living campus in Springfield, Illinois. The property handles independent living, assisted living, long-term nursing, and a short-term rehab program called Gracepoint. It houses 171 residents across its patio townhomes and apartments, running at a 74.3 percent occupancy level. Stays average about 82 days, a timeline showing that daily floor operations move quickly to balance short-term therapy turnarounds with permanent residential care.

The daily routine centers on a hands-on nursing schedule that averages 2 hours and 25 minutes of direct attention per resident each day. Registered nurses, practical nurses, and aides split this time to run clinical monitoring alongside on-site speech, physical, occupational, and respiratory therapy sessions. If you plan to visit, keep in mind the campus carries a low walk score of 13, meaning the location is car-dependent and you will need a vehicle to reach the nearby hospitals, shops, or churches.

State regulators have previously noted safety and care compliance issues at this facility. Specifically, inspection records point to ongoing problems with resident supervision, fall prevention, nutritional support, and maintaining the functional physical abilities of residents over time. Talking through these past survey reports with the director of nursing is a smart way to find out what specific training updates they have added to their daily floor routines.

Interested individuals can reach out to the admissions office to check on open townhome layouts, apartment vacancies, or the standard entry checklist.
