HOMEVIEW CENTER OF FRANKLIN
Within standard 12-15 month inspection cycle. Federal law requires annual inspections.
Homeview Center of Franklin has received a Trust Grade of A, which indicates they are considered excellent and highly recommended among nursing homes. They rank #55 out of 505 facilities in Indiana, placing them in the top half, and #6 out of 10 in Johnson County, meaning there are only five local options that perform better. The facility is currently improving, having reduced its issues from three in 2024 to none in 2025. However, staffing is a weakness, with a rating of 2 out of 5 stars and a turnover rate of 37%, although this is below the state average. On the positive side, they have not incurred any fines, which is a good sign, and they have average RN coverage, ensuring some oversight in care. That said, there are some concerns to be aware of. Recent inspections found that the Director of Dining and Nutrition Services lacked a valid certification, which could affect food quality for all residents. Additionally, there were instances of staff failing to maintain proper hygiene standards in food preparation, with uncovered hair observed in the kitchen. Lastly, there was a failure to create a care plan for a resident with broken and missing teeth, indicating a gap in dental care management. These findings suggest that while the facility has strengths, there are areas needing improvement to ensure the best care for residents.
