10 Best Nursing Homes in Indianapolis, IN

Who are you searching for?

When you hear the phrase “nursing home,” you may picture a standard retirement community like an assisted living or independent living community. Nursing home, however, technically refers to a skilled nursing facility with round-the-clock medical supervision and treatments for people with severe health conditions. For those who don’t require constant medical oversight, assisted living and memory care facilities are often a better match. These types of facilities provide senior care services and are a fraction of the cost of a skilled nursing facility.

A Place for Mom partners with 27 senior care facilities within a 10-mile radius of Indianapolis’ downtown area, which includes both assisted living and memory care facilities. Assisted living facilities offer help with personal care and activities of daily living, security, and convenient on-site services. Memory care facilities are similar to assisted living but feature additional specialized therapies, security, and programs for seniors with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia. This in-depth guide breaks down senior care facilities in the Indianapolis area with details on their amenities and services, costs, ways seniors pay, and local senior benefit resources.

Costs of nursing homes in the Indianapolis area

The cost of a senior care facility in Indianapolis is widely dependent on the level of care provided there. In almost all cases, a skilled nursing facility will cost more than an assisted living or memory care facility, because of the extensive medical support and supervision it provides.

It’s important to be aware of how much care services affect the cost and be familiar with what services are provided in different types of senior care facilities. Otherwise, you could end up paying for services that aren’t actually needed.

Skilled nursing facilities

On-site medical staff, round-the-clock medical supervision, and skilled nursing services make skilled nursing facilities the costliest type of senior care facility. The cost can vary depending on whether you have a private or semi-private room. On average, the cost of a semi-private room in a skilled nursing home is $7,057 and $8,973 for a private room, according to the 2021 Genworth Cost of Care survey.^[01]

Costs of Indianapolis assisted living and memory care facilities

Many seniors seek out an assisted living facility when they need help with personal care services or activities of daily living (ADLs). The average cost of one of our in-network Indianapolis assisted living facilities is $3,900 per month, according to A Place for Mom’s 2022 proprietary data.^[02] This total amount factors in the cost of rent and personal care services that are often bundled into the monthly rate. Here are the services you can expect to find at our partner Indy assisted living communities:

Assistance with activities of daily living
Organized community activities and events (on-site and off-site)
Daily meals and snacks
Housekeeping and maintenance
Personal laundry and/or dry-cleaning
Transportation
Concierge services
Parking
Pet rent/pet-care services

Some assisted living facilities have dedicated memory care units for residents with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia. Residents in memory care units receive similar services provided in an assisted living facility, like those above, as well as specialized memory care services. Memory care residents receive advanced services like enhanced security measures, 24-hour awake staff, and specialized activities and therapies. Memory care staff may also be required to have advanced training in memory care-caregiving techniques.

These more specialized care services usually result in memory care costing slightly more than assisted living alone. On average, the cost of one of our partner Indianapolis memory care facilities is $4,400 per month, according to A Place for Mom’s 2022 proprietary data.^[02]

How people pay for a nursing home in Indianapolis

There are a variety of ways to pay for nursing homes in Indianapolis. Families will often use a mix of private and public pay options. Depending on a couple of different factors, Medicare and Medicaid can help out with some of the costs of long-term care or skilled nursing services. Veterans and surviving spouses may also be able to turn to certain benefits through the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

No matter what stage you’re at in your search for long-term care, it’s important to understand what financial resources may be available to help stay a step ahead of the costs. We delve into what specific payment methods can be used to cover certain long-term care costs at senior care facilities below.

Private pay methods

Personal assets like savings accounts, investment returns, and retirement income are often the first resources seniors and families look into to pay for their ideal senior care facility. In some cases, the following options below may also be available to help pay for long-term senior care costs:

Number of veterans living in Indianapolis in 2021

About 25% of veterans in Indianapolis are age 75 and older.

Veteran-specific benefits may be available to help veterans or their spouses pay for long-term senior care costs. The Indianapolis Office of Veterans Services has several appointed county veterans service officers (CVSO) to help Indianapolis veterans access benefits. Disability benefits like the Aid and Attendance benefit are particularly helpful. This benefit provides monthly payments to eligible veterans or spouses for anything that improves quality of life, such as senior housing and care. You or a loved one may qualify for more benefits than you think, and local resources are there to help make sure you don’t miss out on any.

The first step to applying is contacting a CVSO or one of the veterans service organizations (VSO) located at the Indianapolis VA Regional Office. VSOs like the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW), Disabled American Veterans (DAV), and American Veterans (AMVETS) advocate for veterans and families and can help out with the complex benefits application process. Other VSOs include The American Legion, The Military Order of the Purple Heart, and Paralyzed Veterans of America. Find contact information and other online resources below.

Medicaid

Eligible individuals who meet financial and medical requirements may qualify for certain health care services through the Indiana Medicaid program. Medicaid is jointly managed by the federal and state government. In some cases, it may be used to pay for long-term care costs in nursing homes, memory care, and assisted living facilities. Find out how Medicaid may be used to pay for long-term care expenses in different types of senior care settings below.

Indiana Medicaid for nursing homes

Indiana Medicaid provides coverage for medically necessary care within a nursing home — or a skilled nursing facility — for patients who require a nursing home level of care. This means a person requires a level of care that can only be provided by licensed nurses and other types of health care professionals. Medicaid nursing homes provide the following to patients:

Room and board
Round-the-clock medical supervision
Nursing care services
Rehabilitative therapies
Nutrition management
Organized activities

To qualify, you must be age 65 or older, blind, or disabled. You must also meet certain income and asset limits, which can change every year and vary by family size.

Indiana Medicaid for assisted living and memory care facilities

The cost to live in a private memory care or assisted living facility is not covered by Indiana Medicaid. However, some Medicaid programs let patients access in-home health care services in the residence or community of their choice. These programs meet the needs of seniors who need a nursing home level of care but would rather receive the services in their community or home instead of an institutional-like nursing home.

Depending on the facility, Medicaid will cover certain care services inside an assisted living or memory care facility through home and community based services (HCBS) waiver programs. The following HCBS programs may be available to help seniors with the cost of certain health care services:

Aged and disabled (A&D) waiver provides access to specialized medical equipment and supplies, home modifications, and participant-directed home care services from within a community.
Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) helps seniors age 55+ that live in a PACE service area access several medical and supportive services from their community instead of a nursing home, such as hospital and skilled nursing care when necessary.

You’ll need to apply for Medicaid before applying for the A&D waiver or the PACE program, which can be done in person at your local Division of Family Resources (DFR) office or online. Once that step is complete, you can contact your local Area Agency on Aging (AAA) to get started with the application process to enroll in the A&D waiver program.

To apply for PACE, contact your local PACE organization. You can find a list of all Indiana PACE programs and contacts listed on the state’s Department of Family and Social Services Administration website.

Medicare

Medicare is the federal health insurance program designed to help seniors pay for medically necessary health care costs. Depending on a person’s Medicare plan and the type of senior care setting, Medicare will pay for certain medically necessary, short-term care services.

Nursing homes in Indianapolis — or skilled nursing facilities — can be covered by Medicare for up to 100 days. To qualify for Medicare coverage, seniors must have a confirmed medical diagnosis and meet all of the following criteria:^[04]

They are age 65 and older.
They have a qualifying inpatient hospital stay.
They receive skilled nursing services in a Medicare-certified facility.
They’re enrolled in Medicare Part A and have unused days left in their benefit period.
They need skilled nursing services for a condition that was either treated during an inpatient hospital stay or developed while receiving care in a nursing home.

Most expenses incurred in an assisted living or memory care facility are considered custodial costs and aren’t covered by Medicare. However, there are some specific services and expenses that Medicare may pay for while a patient is living in an assisted living or memory care facility, like the following:

Prescriptions
Medical supplies
Preventative services

Help with Medicare benefits

Indianapolis seniors have access to ample resources to help with Medicare. Trained Medicare counselors are available through the Indiana State Health Insurance Program (SHIP), as well as CICOA Aging and In-Home Solutions — the Marion County Area Agency on Aging (AAA). Both provide no-cost Medicare counseling to guide seniors through Medicare-approved services, eligibility requirements, how to file claims, and more.

Understand Indiana laws and regulations for nursing homes

The state regulations for senior care facilities in Indiana vary somewhat depending on the type of care setting. We highlight some important state regulations in place for Indiana skilled nursing, assisted living, and memory care facilities below.

Skilled nursing facilities

Skilled nursing facilities are also referred to as comprehensive care facilities in Indiana. Skilled nursing facilities are required to be licensed through the Comprehensive Care Facility Licensing and Certification Program by the Indiana Department of Health. Skilled nursing facilities are required to provide the following:^[05]

Room and board
Food for special diets
Medication administration
Rehabilitative treatments and therapies under the order of a physician
Comprehensive nursing care

Read on to find out about types of care provided in a skilled nursing facility, as well as some specific regulations for skilled nursing facilities.

Types of care in a skilled nursing facility

Skilled nursing facilities are licensed to provide comprehensive nursing care, which goes beyond what’s provided in settings like assisted living or memory care facilities. Comprehensive nursing care includes the following types of medical care services:^[05]

Insertion, irrigation, and replacement of catheters
Treatment of complex or infected wounds that require the use of sterile techniques
Treatment of widespread skin disorders, such as pressure ulcers
Any physician-ordered treatments that require a nurse’s observation
Administration of oxygen or other medical gases

Skilled nursing facility regulations in Indiana

Indiana’s regulations for skilled nursing facilities help make sure facilities provide a safe and sanitary environment that promotes residents’ quality of life and dignity. We highlight a few of those regulations for skilled nursing facilities below:^[05]

Prospective residents must have a physician’s order to be admitted.
All residents must be served three daily meals and, if needed, be provided with special eating equipment and utensils.
Facilities must conduct a preadmission evaluation on prospective residents to make sure their needs can be met at the facility.
Facilities must develop a comprehensive care plan within seven days after a resident’s initial assessment. The plan must include measurable goals and timelines to meet a resident’s specific care needs.
Facilities must provide residents a discharge summary that details their health status at the time of transfer, as well as a post-discharge plan to identify their needs after transfer.
Facilities must provide an ongoing activity program with a range of options, such as group social activities, events, arts and crafts, and spiritual programs.
Residents have the right to be treated with dignity and free from all forms of abuse. All facilities must have policies in place that prohibit abuse, mistreatment, and neglect of residents.
Facilities must provide specialized rehabilitative therapies (physical therapy, occupational therapy, etc.) or use an outside resource to provide such therapies for residents who need them.

Indiana assisted living and memory care regulations

Assisted living facilities in Indiana can be licensed or unlicensed to operate. Both types of facilities should provide assistance with activities of daily living to individuals. We outline some distinctions between both types of facilities, as well as Indiana regulations for licensed assisted living facilities below.

Licensed vs. unlicensed assisted living facilities

Assisted living facilities can be either licensed or unlicensed in Indiana. Assisted living facilities that are licensed fall under the category of residential care facilities and are regulated and inspected by the Indiana Department of Health about every nine to 15 months. Licensed assisted living facilities can provide more advanced health care services like medication administration. Unlicensed assisted living facilities, on the other hand, can’t provide medication administration. However, residents can hire their own home health care caregivers if they need such services while living in a facility.

Assisted living vs. skilled nursing facilities

Unlike skilled nursing facilities, assisted living facilities — both licensed and unlicensed — can’t provide comprehensive nursing services or admit residents who need round-the-clock nursing care. They also can’t admit seniors who require total assistance with all their activities of daily living. We outline some more key regulations in place for licensed Indiana assisted living facilities below.

Indiana regulations for licensed assisted living facilities

Any medication administration needs to be ordered by a resident’s doctor and supervised by a licensed nurse, though residents may self-administer or receive medication assistance from staff when appropriate and safe.

Below are some regulations for licensed assisted living communities in Indiana:^[06]

Like skilled nursing facilities, assisted living facilities must serve three daily meals.
All private units must be at least 100 square feet, with a minimum of 80 square feet available per resident in multiple-occupancy units.
Residents’ rooms should have no more than four beds within one unit, and every unit must have a private toilet, sink, and tub or shower.
All staff members must undergo an initial orientation before working on their own, as well as an annual in-service education and training program related to their duties.
Assisted living facilities are responsible for creating policies for investigating and addressing complaints to prevent any abuse, neglect, or mistreatment of residents.
Licensed residential care facilities are required to perform personal care services and assistance with activities of daily living that are tailored to the needs of each resident.
Licensed residential care facilities are also responsible for scheduling activities that are tailored to the interests and abilities of residents, as well as for arranging transportation to off-site community events.

Regulations for licensed assisted living facilities with memory care

Licensed assisted living facilities that offer memory care are required to submit an Alzheimer’s and dementia special care unit form. This form outlines a facility’s specific mission and philosophy for caring for patients with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia, as well as the following:^[06]

Staffing patterns and staff-to-patient ratios for each shift
Any therapeutic methods and programs provided
Types and amount of training required or provided to staff
A facility’s criteria and processes for admissions, transfers, and discharges

Memory care facilities that submit the disclosure form must have a designated director for the Alzheimer’s and dementia care unit. This director needs to complete the following:

At least 12 hours of dementia-care training
An annual 6 hours of training about current care practices and regulatory standards for residents in memory care

All memory care staff are required to complete an initial orientation and annual in-service training. Memory care staff must also meet the following training requirements:^[06]

An annual 6 hours of dementia-specific training within six months of employment
An annual 3-hour training course over current standards of dementia care

Look up and report Indiana licensed assisted living facilities

You can find consumer reports of all licensed nursing homes and assisted living facilities in Indiana by searching the Indiana Department of Health online lookup tool. You can use the tool to search directly for a provider in the “find any provider” search box.

You can also look up a provider using the list menu, organized by county. Once you click the provider type (such as nursing homes or residential care facilities), you’ll have a list of all Indiana counties to choose from. Select the county you’re interested in, and a list of all licensed facilities will appear. From there, choose a facility and a pop-up box will open up and let you view the consumer report.

You can also submit a complaint to the Indiana Department of Health regarding any licensed health facility.

COVID-19 regulations for Indianapolis nursing homes

There currently aren’t any statewide mandates or restrictions in place for senior care communities, like assisted living or memory care, in Indianapolis. But private communities can set their own standards, so it’s important that you check with a prospective facility beforehand to understand their COVID-19 policies.

You can find the most recent public guidance and view county-specific information on the state’s COVID-19 response website. You can also find the latest guidance for Indianapolis on the Marion County Public Health Department website.

Indianapolis skilled nursing facilities have more advanced standards in place since they’re considered health care facilities. All Indianapolis skilled nursing facilities need to follow COVID-19 guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) specific to health care settings. These guidelines include the following:

Staff safety.

Staff should use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) whenever there’s a confirmed case of COVID-19.

Vaccinations.

Everyone is recommended to stay current with COVID-19 vaccines and boosters.

An illustration of a person in bed within a house

Quarantining.

Patients who test positive for COVID-19 should isolate in a private room for at least 10 days.

An illustration of a protective breathing mask

Masking.

Health care professionals should wear masks and other types of personal protective equipment (PPE) around residents with confirmed COVID-19.

What to expect from nursing homes in Indianapolis

Senior care facilities are often grouped into a single category in people’s minds. But there are some pretty important distinctions you’ll want to be aware of when considering a senior care facility for a loved one. We lay out some key distinctions between different types of senior care facilities in Indianapolis below.

Skilled nursing facilities in Indianapolis

Skilled nursing facilities are often a short-term care option for people with complex medical needs or conditions. They provide medical care services just below those available at a hospital, such as round-the-clock, medically supervised nursing care. Most skilled nursing homes require a referral from a physician before admission. These facilities are designed to accommodate people who need to recover from an illness, surgery, or injury. Patients often return to their homes or move into a different type of senior care setting once they’ve recovered.

A Place for Mom doesn’t partner with stand-alone skilled nursing facilities. However, you can still find general nursing services at nearly all of our in-network assisted living and memory care facilities. Some of our partner assisted living and memory care facilities even have skilled nursing units right on-site, in the event their current residents require such advanced medical care.

Indianapolis assisted living

Seniors who don’t need the level of care provided in a skilled nursing facility may consider an assisted living facility. In Indiana, assisted living facilities can be either licensed or unlicensed. The main difference between the two is that only licensed facilities can provide health services like medication administration. Assisted living facilities are designed to help seniors with activities of daily living (ADLs) while also providing socially engaging activities for them to participate in, which include the following:

Stretching and yoga classes
Holiday parties
Wine tastings
Gardening clubs
Art classes
Cooking clubs

Transportation, meals, housekeeping, and personal laundry are often considered baseline services at most assisted living facilities. Baseline services are typically included as part of the monthly cost. Many assisted living communities also offer access to on-site amenities such as fitness centers, resident lounges, game rooms, theaters, and outdoor courtyards. Additionally, you’ll find Indianapolis assisted living facilities offer a diverse selection of floor plans, with some featuring elegant, in-unit upgrades like stainless steel appliances and granite countertops.

Indianapolis memory care

Memory care facilities provide similar services and amenities as general assisted living facilities, with more specialized standards for staff and security. The facilities are designed to provide a secure living environment for residents with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. They also offer advanced therapies and person-centered activities for individuals with dementia. These specialized activities and therapeutic programs help to reduce loneliness, boredom, and aggressive behaviors in residents. Reminiscence and sensory-based programs are popular, and they help residents remember positive moments from the past and create new memories.

Most of our in-network memory care facilities feature enclosed courtyard areas, outdoor walking paths, and Wander Guard or similar systems to prevent residents from wandering away from the grounds. All of our partner memory care facilities have round-the-clock awake staff available, and staff are required to complete annual dementia-specific training. Some communities exclusively accommodate residents with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia. But most of our partner memory care facilities operate on the same campus as an assisted living facility.

Transportation for seniors in Indianapolis

More than half of our partner Indianapolis senior care facilities offer some form of transportation service to their residents. Most provide complimentary transportation, and a select few communities provide at-cost transportation. Residents in assisted living or memory care facilities often find the transportation services to be especially helpful for medical appointments and other errands. Not only is this highly convenient, but it’s also safer for seniors who can’t travel independently. Memory care facilities will even offer caregiver escorts on rides for seniors with Alzheimer’s or other types of dementia.

For visiting friends and loved ones, Indianapolis has an expansive public transit system. IndyGo is Indianapolis’ primary public transit service and is made up of over 200 buses. All IndyGo buses are ADA-accessible, and there’s also a paratransit service available for passengers with disabilities who can’t access the fixed routes. Seniors who can safely travel on IndyGo buses receive a discounted fare when they present a valid Medicare card or Half Fare ID card. You can find an application for a Half Fare ID card online.

Indianapolis has several other transportation services as well, such as Way2Go, which helps Marion County seniors get to and from locations such as medical appointments, grocery stores, and pharmacies. You may also find one of the following Indianapolis transportation services to be helpful to you or your loved one:
