Assisted living is for someone who is largely independent but needs a reliable hand with the everyday things — bathing, dressing, medications, meals, getting to appointments. Indiana licenses these communities as Residential Care Facilities (RCF) under 410 IAC 16.2-5, a single license type, not tiered by evacuation ability the way Texas tiers Type A/B.

Irvington specifically
Irvington's distance from the newer Hamilton County health campuses means families here more often start their search with Community Health Network's east-side facilities.
The question about money nobody asks early enough
Ask what happens if private funds run out, and whether the community holds a Medicaid waiver provider agreement. A meaningful share of communities do not participate at all, which converts a funding problem into a forced move at the worst possible moment.
