St. Augustine Home for the Aged is a small nonprofit home in Indianapolis, just 23 certified beds, and its recent inspection history is mostly clean where it counts: 13 deficiencies on record, none of them causing harm or jeopardy, with the last survey completed in July 2025. Two abuse-related citations are worth asking about directly, since those tend to say more about staffing and supervision than paperwork does. The quality measure side is strong, and inspection results sit above average. Where this home gives ground is staffing, which is what holds its overall standing back despite solid clinical numbers. Ask about direct care hours per resident on evenings and weekends.

Little Sisters Of The Poor runs 76 certified beds on the North Side, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing: 4.30 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average of 3.86. That coverage thins on weekends, dropping about 13% below the home's own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Staff turnover sits at 31.5%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for residents who need consistent caregivers. The tradeoff is in the inspection record: 22 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm level and 2 tied to abuse, plus one fine of $9,272. The most recent inspection was March 2025, so the picture is current.

Queen of Peace Residence in Queens Village runs on a non-profit model with 53 certified beds, and its staffing is the standout: 7.17 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 86% above the national average. That's an unusual number, and it shows up in the staffing star rating. Weekend coverage dips about 5% below weekday levels, which is modest. Staff turnover sits at 28.6% against a national average near 46%, so people tend to stay. The record shows 8 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in late 2025. Quality measure scores run lower, at 2 stars, which is worth asking about directly.

Jeanne Jugan Residence runs on 5.93 nurse hours per resident per day, well above the 3.86 national average, and weekends barely dip from weekday coverage, about 5%. Its last inspection, in April 2026, turned up three deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse, and the health inspection rating sits at the top of the scale. The quality measure rating is where it thins out, landing at 2 of 5, so the clinical numbers families often weigh don't match the staffing strength. As a nonprofit with 49 beds, it's small enough that nurse coverage translates directly to the floor. Ask what's driving the quality measures before you decide.
