Assisted Living Tidbits:

Gary is an interesting town from a seniors/assisted living perspective. For starters, it is a large city which will probably soon top the 100,000 mark. In addition, there is a larger than average number of senior citizens living in Gary - 14.1 percent, which is substantially larger than our national average. So why was it so difficult for us to find relevant assisted living and senior services information for Gary?

We first started on the Indiana Family & Social Services Administration website, where they do have a provider lookup page for assisted living (including nursing facilities, adult day service, adult foster care, supportive housing, public transportation and congregate meals). The page, I thought, was a good start - you can check which box/category you are interested in, and then an interactive map populates with assisted living facilities, day services, etc. based on the checkboxes selected. You can hover over the pin points and a small balloon will come up with the facility's basic information, but not much else. I had hoped that you would be able to find out more about the facility by clicking on it - information such as licensed beds, payments accepted, etc. Hopefully this extra level of information will be added in the future.

So, finding specific information on facilities was not as easy as in other states.

We also went to the Gary, Indiana city website, and interestingly (unless I missed it) there is no 'search' function - so I couldn't search for "seniors" or "aging services" easily - and couldn't easily find this information. I had to dig up information about senior centers from other third-party websites.

We did find a .pdf that outlines the very basic information for the categories above, including assisted living in Indiana. Again, this is only basic information, and does not include much else aside from the facility address/location, name and phone number. You can view the .pdf here.

All information on this website is deemed reliable but not guaranteed
