Overview

Forest Park Health Campus in Richmond, Indiana, has a Trust Grade of B+, which means it is above average and recommended for families considering care options. It ranks #34 out of 505 nursing homes in Indiana, placing it in the top half, and #2 out of 8 facilities in Wayne County, indicating only one local option is better. However, the facility's trend is worsening, with the number of issues increasing from 1 in 2024 to 3 in 2025. Staffing is a concern, as it received a rating of 2 out of 5 stars, with a turnover rate of 45%, slightly below the state average. Positive aspects include excellent RN coverage, ranking higher than 91% of Indiana facilities, and the absence of fines, suggesting compliance with regulations. Specific incidents raised during inspections include a resident self-administering medications without proper documentation of appropriateness, a resident not receiving scheduled showers and feeling unclean as a result, and a failure to identify a persistent skin issue for another resident. These findings highlight areas where care may be lacking, despite some strengths in staffing and oversight. Families should weigh these strengths against the noted deficiencies when considering this facility for their loved ones.
