About Franklin Meadows

Franklin Meadows is a senior living community in Franklin, Indiana, offering short-term rehabilitation, memory care, long-term care, respite care, and hospice care services.

Short-term rehabilitation is designed for those recovering from stroke, cardiovascular difficulties, orthopedic surgery, and other debilitating conditions. The program includes physical, occupational, and speech/language therapies delivered by an interdisciplinary team of doctors, nurses, therapists, and social workers. Services include wound care, fall prevention, mobility training, and strength-building wellness and aerobic conditioning programs. The community's Road to Recovery program brings together the interdisciplinary team, patient, and family within 72 hours of admission to establish discharge goals.

Memory care at Franklin Meadows is a structured, research-based program using a person-centered, wellness-based model of care. The program focuses on maintaining a secure environment where residents have a sense of belonging and meaning, incorporating stimulating daily activities through a Meaningful Day activity program that builds on four domains of wellness.

Long-term care serves those who need assistance with daily tasks and can no longer be cared for at home. Licensed nurses, specially-trained health care aides, and an interdisciplinary care team provide services including physical, occupational, and speech therapies in home-like, secure settings. The community accepts private pay and Medicaid for qualified applicants, with Medicaid specialists available to assist with the application process.

Respite care services provide short-term stays for elderly individuals, allowing home caregivers the opportunity to travel, pursue work, recover from illness or surgery, or attend to other needs. Hospice and palliative care services are available in partnership with local hospice companies, providing skilled nursing care, pain management, spiritual and bereavement counseling, medical equipment and supplies, and social services.

I recently attended an event at Franklin Meadows and was blown away with how interactive and caring the staff is with the residents. We took our lovely Ellie (11 year old dog) for the pet picture event and had so much fun. The admissions director was on the ground floor facilitating the event with care and compassion. It is such a wonderful facility with an even better staff.
