Position within Indiana

9 citations — more than 39% of the 230 licensed assisted living facilities in Indiana. Compared only within Indiana: a citation from IDOH means what it means in Indiana, and there is no national assisted living record to compare to. Counted over 3 years, which holds two or three routine inspections. How this is calculated

Not in this record

Fire safety inspection, severity, the surveyor's narrative, and enforcement. The fire safety inspection of an Indiana residential care facility is the State Fire Marshal's and is not part of IDOH's record; what IDOH itself cites about the building — its sanitation and safety and physical plant standards — is here. IDOH's reports carry no severity grid, and the plan of correction is the facility's own text and is not republished. The administrator and director of nursing IDOH lists are not named. Residential beds licensed inside a comprehensive care facility are part of that nursing home's report and are not included. IDOH's reports give no first-licence date, so Indiana has no newly licensed list.
