About Nursing Home Care in Liberty
Liberty, IN presents a mixed bag for families considering nursing home options. With only one facility in town, your choices are limited. The standout is Whitewater Commons, which maintains a clean record with zero fines in the last three years and is well-staffed, making it a decent option for care. However, the overall market in Liberty is concerning due to the lack of alternatives and any standout facilities.
If you're looking for care options, Whitewater Commons is your only choice. Its clean record and attentive staffing make it worth a visit, but be aware that it is a for-profit facility, which may not align with everyone's preferences. Given the limited options in Liberty, consider expanding your search to nearby towns like Richmond or Brookville, where you might find better-rated facilities with more robust services.
While there are no facilities in Liberty with major red flags, families should still approach their search with caution. Since there’s only one option, you won’t have to sift through many facilities. When visiting Whitewater Commons, a practical tip is to engage with current residents and their families to get a firsthand account of the care and environment, which can provide valuable insights beyond what you see on the surface.

Understanding Our Trust Score System
The Trust Score is a 0-100 rating calculated from CMS's official nursing home database. The score combines five data categories:
- Health Inspection Results — Recent deficiencies, their severity, and patterns over time
- Staffing Levels — RN hours, total nursing hours, and weekend staffing
- Quality Measures — Clinical outcomes like falls, pressure ulcers, and rehospitalizations
- Penalties — Fines, payment denials, and enforcement actions
- Complaints — Substantiated complaints and their severity
In Liberty, 0 facilities score a B grade or better, indicating they meet quality benchmarks across these categories. We recommend families prioritize these facilities and carefully research any facility rated C or below before visiting.

Liberty facilities average 1.15 RN hours per resident day, which meets the CMS-recommended threshold of 0.75 hours. The typical Liberty resident receives approximately 69 minutes of RN attention daily—compared to the 45 minutes experts recommend.
1 Liberty facilities exceed CMS staffing recommendations. Families prioritizing staffing should look for facilities with the "Top Staffing" badge and ask specifically about RN hours during facility visits.
Ownership: An All For-Profit Market
Liberty has no non-profit nursing homes—all 1 facility with reported ownership data are for-profit operations. 1 of 1 facility is chain-owned, meaning these facilities are part of larger corporate systems rather than independently operated.
