What this means for your family

While recent feedback suggests a positive environment, the lack of detail in current reviews makes it difficult to verify if past safety issues have been resolved. We strongly recommend that you ask management specifically about their current fall prevention protocols and how they incorporate family input into daily care plans.

Evansville Care Center receives highly polarized feedback, with recent reviews offering brief, positive praise for administration and staff, while older reviews highlight serious safety concerns.

Questions for Your Tour

  • 1With your high staffing rating, how does your team coordinate to ensure consistent observation for residents who may be at a higher risk for falls?
  • 2I noticed that communication is a top priority for families; what is your standard process for updating us on any changes in my loved one's health or daily status?
  • 3Given the recent focus on safety protocols, could you walk me through the specific steps your team takes to prevent accidents while maintaining a resident's independence?
  • 4With a smaller capacity of 27 residents, how does the staff tailor daily activities to ensure everyone feels included and engaged?
  • 5Since you have a strong reputation for administrative teamwork, how does that collaboration help you resolve concerns quickly if a family member has a question?
  • 6In the event of a medical emergency, what is the immediate protocol for notifying the family and coordinating with local hospitals?

Key Review Excerpts

Both of my parents are there and they have been very well cared for. The staff is wonderful.

Long-term resident's family · 2024★★★★★

Staff is rude and lacks compassion. Further, staff does not listen to family regarding care. My grandma fell off the bed and seriously injured herself.

Hospice patient's family · 2021☆☆☆☆

Great administration and teamwork.

Family member · 2024★★★★★

This facility shows concerning patterns with fire safety and building systems across all three surveys, including recurring issues with smoke barriers, sprinkler systems, and emergency power that persist from 2023 through 2026. Care planning and assessment problems also appear multiple times, suggesting ongoing challenges ensuring residents receive proper individualized care. While all deficiencies were reportedly corrected, the repeated fire safety violations and one complaint-triggered deficiency regarding emergency power systems indicate systemic issues that warrant careful consideration during your visit.
