The facility operates 88 certified beds and is classified as a for-profit, corporate-owned operation. It is certified to accept both Medicare and Medicaid residents. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) assigns star ratings to nursing facilities on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 representing the highest rating. Hawthorne Healthcare Center holds an overall CMS star rating of 3 out of 5, which aligns with the national average of 3.0 stars. Within the individual rating categories, the facility receives a 2-star rating for health inspections and a 2-star rating for staffing levels, both of which fall below the national average. However, the facility earns a 5-star rating in the quality measures category, which reflects performance on clinical care indicators such as rates of hospitalization, medication use, and resident health outcomes. This quality measures rating is the highest available and places the facility above the national average in that specific domain. Hawthorne Healthcare Center is certified for both Medicare and Medicaid, meaning it is able to serve residents who rely on either federal insurance program to cover the cost of skilled nursing or long-term care services.

Private pay and other payment arrangements may also be available depending on individual circumstances. When compared against national benchmarks, Hawthorne Healthcare Center presents a mixed profile. Its overall 3-star rating matches the national average, suggesting a mid-range standing among CMS-rated nursing facilities nationwide. The 2-star ratings in health inspections and staffing indicate performance below the national norm in those areas. Inspection ratings are based on findings from state surveys conducted on behalf of CMS, while staffing ratings account for the number of nursing hours provided per resident per day. The 5-star quality measures rating, by contrast, represents a notable distinction, as it indicates that the facility ranks among the highest performers nationally on the clinical outcomes measures tracked by CMS. Taken together, these ratings offer a data-driven reference point for those researching nursing care options in the Indianapolis area.
