IDOH consumer report → (OASIS AT 56TH)
What these terms mean
IDOH: “The ISDH conducts a state licensure survey at each licensed residential facility approximately once per year. If state findings are cited on a survey, the residential facility may be requested by the ISDH to complete a plan of correction on how and when they will correct each state finding.” Survey reports are posted after the plan of correction is approved, usually four to six weeks after the visit.
Indiana law (IC 16-28-5-1) puts each rule in one of four classes: an offense, “which presents a substantial probability that death or a life-threatening condition will result”; a deficiency, “which presents an immediate or a direct, serious adverse effect on the health, safety, security, rights, or welfare of a patient”; a noncompliance, “which presents an indirect threat to the health, safety, security, rights, or welfare of a patient”; and a nonconformance, any other breach. The class shown with each finding is the one IDOH printed on the report.
A revisit (post survey revisit) is a return visit to check that earlier findings were corrected. Findings listed on a revisit report were not yet corrected at that visit.
Findings are counted from IDOH survey reports for first visits only, so a finding repeated on a revisit is not counted twice. Source: Indiana Department of Health, Division of Long Term Care, data as of October 16, 2026. Always visit in person and ask the community about anything listed here.

How Lilisity works. The only scores or rankings Lilisity publishes are the Top Communities list and the Excellence Awards, both built from phone-verified resident and family interviews. Communities can pay Lilisity a flat monthly fee to manage their own listing: photos, prices, contact details, and receiving the inquiries families choose to send them. The fee is the same no matter how many families contact them or move in. Senior Living Alliance, which runs Lilisity, offers the same listing to its member communities as part of their membership; members pay SLA for its resident and family interview program. No community pays Lilisity per inquiry, per referral or per move-in. Payment never changes a testimonial, a rating, or the order of search results. The "Nearby Senior Living Alliance communities" box shows member communities only. How we verify testimonials · How we are paid
