Brickyard Healthcare - Brandywine Care Center

Brickyard Healthcare - Brandywine Care Center sits in a spot where people can get many types of care, offering skilled nursing, memory care, and different therapy services such as speech, physical, and occupational therapy, and even outpatient rehabilitation if a person doesn't need to stay overnight, and the place has 128 certified beds and usually about 99 folks living there day to day, and you'll find help for those who need long-term nursing, short-term recovery, or just some extra support with daily tasks. The memory care area is secure, with alert systems and safe outdoor spaces, and staff trained to help folks with Alzheimer's and dementia, and the center takes in payments from private pay, insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, and VA benefits, so there are a lot of ways to pay. You'll find services like Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, Home Health Care, Hospice Care, and even Adult Day Services and Active Adult Living options, while the facility covers special needs such as stroke, dialysis, diabetes care, cognitive training, and pain management, plus you can get pharmacy services, doctor visits, dental and eye care, IV care, and even have someone help with laundry and keeping the place tidy. There are private suites, phone services, snacks for everyone, beauty and barber shops, family lounges, Wi-Fi, daily activities, transportation, and television, making things a little easier and brighter for the people who stay there. Brandywine Care Center gets managed by Brandywine Indiana Operating LLC and is fully owned by Hendricks County Hospital, has a nurse turnover rate above the state average at 58.3%, and the nurse staffing ratio is 3.40 hours per resident per day, which is a bit lower than the state's 3.7. The leadership comes from an Executive Director with more than thirty years of experience in senior care, and staff tries to go the extra mile for residents daily. However, inspections have shown a number of deficiencies, including two for infection control, three related to residents' rights and care planning, and a total count of fifty-two deficiencies during inspections, so it's important to look at all the facts. The care center has specialized care for veterans and memory care with secure environments, and you can find both short-term and long-term care, counseling, restorative and pulmonary care, and a wide range of activities aiming to meet different needs all in one place.
