RIVEROAKS HEALTH CAMPUS
Within standard 12-15 month inspection cycle. Federal law requires annual inspections.
RiverOaks Health Campus in Princeton, Indiana has received a Trust Grade of C, which means it is average and sits in the middle of the pack for nursing homes. It ranks #381 out of 505 facilities statewide, placing it in the bottom half, but is #2 out of 4 in Gibson County, indicating it is one of the better local options. However, the facility is worsening, with reported issues increasing from 4 in 2023 to 10 in 2024. Staffing is a relative strength, with a 3/5 star rating and a turnover rate of 43%, which is below the state average, meaning staff are generally stable and familiar with the residents. Notably, there have been no fines, and the facility has more RN coverage than 99% of Indiana facilities, which is excellent for catching potential issues. On the downside, there have been concerns regarding infection control, as the facility failed to designate a certified Infection Preventionist. Additionally, there were observations of staff not following proper precautions while transferring residents with urinary catheters, which is a risk for infection. Moreover, some residents did not receive adequate assistance with daily living activities, such as bathing and oral hygiene, which is concerning for their overall care.

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 Riveroaks Health Campus Safe?
Based on CMS inspection data, RIVEROAKS 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 2-star overall rating and ranks #100 of 100 nursing homes in Indiana.

Was Riveroaks Health Campus Ever Fined?

This is a positive indicator, though families should still review recent inspection reports for the full picture.
Is Riveroaks Health Campus on Any Federal Watch List?
RIVEROAKS 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.

This is a positive indicator, though families should still review the facility's inspection history directly.
