MILL POND HEALTH CAMPUS
Within standard 12-15 month inspection cycle. Federal law requires annual inspections.
Mill Pond Health Campus in Greencastle, Indiana has a Trust Grade of C+, indicating it is slightly above average but not exceptional. It ranks #163 out of 505 facilities in Indiana, placing it in the top half, and #3 out of 5 in Putnam County, meaning only one local option ranks higher. Unfortunately, the facility's trend is worsening, with issues increasing from 2 in 2024 to 6 in 2025. Staffing is a concern, rated at 2 out of 5 stars, although the turnover rate is at 38%, which is better than the state average of 47%. There have been no reported fines, which is a positive sign, and they have average RN coverage. However, there are serious issues to consider: one resident suffered a hip fracture due to a poorly assembled bed, and another resident experienced multiple urinary tract infections because catheters were used without clear justification. While the facility does have a good quality measures rating of 5 out of 5, these incidents highlight significant areas for improvement. Overall, families should weigh these strengths and weaknesses carefully.

How is Mill Pond Health Campus Staffed?
CMS rates MILL POND HEALTH CAMPUS's staffing level at 2 out of 5 stars, which is below average compared to other nursing homes. Staff turnover is 38%, compared to the Indiana average of 46%. This relatively stable workforce can support continuity of care.
What Have Inspectors Found at Mill Pond Health Campus?

The facility is operated by TRILOGY HEALTH SERVICES, a chain that manages multiple nursing homes. With 68 certified beds and approximately 54 residents (about 79% occupancy), it is a smaller facility located in GREENCASTLE, Indiana.
How Does Mill Pond Health Campus Compare to Other Indiana Nursing Homes?
Compared to the 100 nursing homes in Indiana, MILL POND HEALTH CAMPUS's overall rating (4 stars) is above the state average of 3.1, staff turnover (38%) is near the state average of 46%, and health inspection rating (3 stars) is at the national benchmark.
What Should Families Ask When Visiting Mill Pond Health Campus?
Based on this facility's data, families visiting should ask: "Can you walk me through typical staffing levels on day, evening, and night shifts?" "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?" These questions are particularly relevant given the below-average staffing rating.
Is Mill Pond Health Campus Safe?
Based on CMS inspection data, MILL POND HEALTH CAMPUS 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 4-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 Mill Pond Health Campus Stick Around?
MILL POND HEALTH CAMPUS has a staff turnover rate of 38%, which is about average for Indiana nursing homes (state average: 46%). Moderate turnover is common in nursing homes, but families should still ask about staff tenure and how the facility maintains care continuity when employees leave.
Was Mill Pond Health Campus Ever Fined?
MILL POND HEALTH CAMPUS 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 Mill Pond Health Campus on Any Federal Watch List?
MILL POND HEALTH CAMPUS 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.
