Waters of Hartford City is a 65-bed facility that blends post-acute physical rehabilitation with extended long-term nursing care. The building maintains a 60% occupancy rate, which trails the Indiana baseline, and logs a 99-day average length of stay. While the broader admission pipeline is split quite evenly between short-stay Medicare clients (46%) and private-pay individuals (45%), long-term Medicaid recipients account for 77.5% of the active daily resident census. Financial summaries point to tight operational margins, with the property logging a $90.5 thousand operating deficit (a negative 2.0% margin) in 2023, while dedicating a stable 53.2% of its gross revenue directly to employee payroll.
State oversight databases record an excellent regulatory track record and solid daily care hours, though clinical charts reflect a few major localized medical gaps. Direct nursing lines supply 3 hours and 27 minutes of care per resident daily, running 18% ahead of the state average, driven by a heavy licensed practical nurse presence. On the compliance side, regulators have logged only four total deficiencies since 2022, which sits 89% better than the Indiana baseline, and the provider carries zero history of federal financial penalties.
A recent February 2025 health and life safety review came back completely clean with zero citations, while past inspections turned up only isolated, corrected points involving a delayed administrative screening, an unapproved power strip, and skin care updates. Clinical metrics reveal strong short-term recovery success, documenting a 59% community discharge rate and low hospital readmissions. However, permanent resident charts flag serious chronic care challenges, reporting a 10.7% rate for skin pressure ulcers and high local depression indicators, while short-stay rehab files note a 5.0% rate for major injury falls.
Prospective residents evaluating area short-term physical therapy options or long-term nursing setups can use these public health logs to analyze the provider’s operational baseline. The state’s paperwork outlines a quiet, low-occupancy facility that maintains a near-flawless multi-year regulatory record and robust front-line caregiver hours, balanced against a small business deficit and notable physical safety and wound-tracking challenges.
Waters of Hartford City Skilled Nursing Facility is legally operated by Johnson Memorial Hospital, and administrated by Max Richardson.
