St. Augustine Home

Indianapolis, IN - Assisted Living

St. Augustine Home is an extraordinary assisted living community in Indianapolis, Indiana. It is within popular Marion County which is part of the Hoosier State.

We operate St. Augustine as a true home, rather than an institution, so that Residents may live in an atmosphere of peace, happiness, and security for their remaining years. Residents enjoy the convenience of all of the following: doctor and dental offices, physical therapy facilities, dining rooms, recreational areas, a full-service laundry, an industrial kitchen, meeting rooms, an award-winning garden, and a chapel that is available 24-hours a day.

Our continuum of care includes:

  • Independent living apartments for low-income seniors
  • Assisted living
  • Skilled nursing care (Medicaid certified)

What is unique about St. Augustine Home?

  • The Little Sisters live at St. Augustine Home and are available 24/7 to respond to Resident needs.
  • We take a spiritual approach to aging – exemplified by the central location of the chapel, the presence of a chaplain and Resident priests, daily Mass and rosary, and regular availability of the sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick.
  • The Little Sisters assure a constant presence with the Residents who are dying.
  • All Resident bedrooms are single occupancy, with private bathrooms.
  • Although each apartment has kitchen facilities, apartment Residents are welcome to enjoy family-style meals in one of St. Augustine’s dining rooms as often as they wish, free of charge.

As Little Sisters of the Poor we care for the elderly poor in the spirit of humble service we have received from our foundress, Saint Jeanne Jugan. We welcome the elderly as we would Jesus Christ himself and serve them with love and respect until God calls them home.

  • We welcome low-income elderly of at least 65 years of age regardless of race or religion.
  • The atmosphere of our home is friendly and home-like.
  • We strive to provide the best level of medical care possible, but we go beyond that to minister to our Residents emotionally and spiritually, making them happy and communicating to them the tenderness and mercy of God.
  • We encourage an active lifestyle through meaningful activities, a lively pastoral program and opportunities for volunteering.
  • We adhere to all the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, especially those concerning the sanctity of human life.
  • We reject all forms of euthanasia and assisted suicide and protect our Residents from these practices, as well as from all forms of abuse and neglect.
  • The compassionate care and accompaniment of the dying is the summit of our ministry. At St. Augustine Home it is our goal that no one die alone.
  • We welcome the collaboration of many dedicated staff members, volunteers and benefactors, who are the extended hands and hearts of the Little Sisters.

Continuing the work of Saint Jeanne Jugan, our MISSION is to offer the neediest elderly of every race and religion a home where they will be welcomed as Christ, cared for as family and accompanied with dignity until God calls them to himself.

Our VISION is to contribute to the Culture of Life by nurturing communities where each person is valued, the solidarity of the human family and the wisdom of age are celebrated, and the compassionate love of Christ is shared with all.
