Overall, while Swiss Village has many strengths, families should be aware of these weaknesses when considering care options.

About This Facility

What is Swiss Village's CMS Rating?

CMS assigns SWISS VILLAGE an overall rating of 5 out of 5 stars, which is considered much above average nationally. Within Indiana, this rating places the facility higher than 99% of the state's 100 nursing homes. This rating reflects solid performance across the metrics CMS uses to evaluate nursing home quality.

How is Swiss Village Staffed?

CMS rates SWISS VILLAGE's staffing level at 5 out of 5 stars, which is much above average compared to other nursing homes. Staff turnover is 30%, compared to the Indiana average of 46%. This relatively stable workforce can support continuity of care.

What Have Inspectors Found at Swiss Village?

State health inspectors documented 4 deficiencies at SWISS VILLAGE during 2023 to 2025. These included: 4 with potential for harm.

Who Owns and Operates Swiss Village?

SWISS VILLAGE is owned by a non-profit organization. Non-profit facilities reinvest revenue into operations rather than distributing to shareholders. The facility is operated by ADAMS COUNTY MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, a chain that manages multiple nursing homes. With 128 certified beds and approximately 70 residents (about 55% occupancy), it is a mid-sized facility located in BERNE, Indiana.

How Does Swiss Village Compare to Other Indiana Nursing Homes?

Compared to the 100 nursing homes in Indiana, SWISS VILLAGE's overall rating (5 stars) is above the state average of 3.1, staff turnover (30%) is significantly lower than the state average of 46%, and health inspection rating (5 stars) is much above the national benchmark.

What Should Families Ask When Visiting Swiss Village?

Based on this facility's data, families visiting should ask: "Can I visit during a mealtime to observe dining assistance and food quality?" "How do you handle medical emergencies, and what is your hospital transfer rate?" "Can I speak with family members of current residents about their experience?"

Is Swiss Village Safe?

Based on CMS inspection data, SWISS VILLAGE has a clean safety record: no substantiated abuse findings (meaning no confirmed cases of resident harm), no Immediate Jeopardy citations (the most serious violation level indicating risk of serious injury or death), and is not on the Special Focus Facility watch list (a federal program monitoring the lowest-performing 1% of nursing homes). The facility has a 5-star overall rating and ranks #1 of 100 nursing homes in Indiana. While no facility is perfect, families should still ask about staff-to-resident ratios and recent inspection results during their visit.

Do Nurses at Swiss Village Stick Around?

Staff at SWISS VILLAGE tend to stick around. With a turnover rate of 30%, the facility is 16 percentage points below the Indiana average of 46%. Low turnover is a positive sign. It means caregivers have time to learn each resident's needs, medications, and personal preferences. Consistent staff also notice subtle changes in a resident's condition more quickly. Registered Nurse turnover is also low at 20%, meaning experienced RNs are available to handle complex medical needs.

Was Swiss Village Ever Fined?

SWISS VILLAGE has no federal fines on record. CMS issues fines when nursing homes fail to meet care standards or don't correct problems found during inspections. The absence of fines suggests the facility has either maintained compliance or corrected any issues before penalties were assessed. This is a positive indicator, though families should still review recent inspection reports for the full picture.

Is Swiss Village on Any Federal Watch List?

SWISS VILLAGE is not on any federal watch list. The most significant is the Special Focus Facility (SFF) program, which identifies the bottom 1% of nursing homes nationally based on persistent, serious quality problems. Not being on this list means the facility has avoided the pattern of deficiencies that triggers enhanced federal oversight. This is a positive indicator, though families should still review the facility's inspection history directly.
