About Catholic Charities Indianapolis — A Caring Place Adult Day Services
A Caring Place is a Catholic Charities Indianapolis day program for adults age 60 and older with physical or cognitive impairments. It combines daytime supervision with recreation and socialization built around the individual, which can give family caregivers time to work, handle errands, or rest.
The center lists health assessment and monitoring, medication administration, lunch, and a snack. It is open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and may provide transportation within nine miles. Published fees are $75 for a full day, $50 for a half day, and $15 per trip; financial assistance and funding through Medicaid Waiver, CHOICE, or the Veterans Administration may be available. Confirm the radius, schedule, and eligibility before arranging attendance.
The program specializes in older adults with physical or cognitive support needs and describes daytime services, not permanent residence or emergency care. Staff can also help families identify other services that may allow a person to remain safely at home. When comparing options, ask how many days per week someone may attend, what health information is required, and how changing needs are reviewed.
The listed address is 4609 North Capitol Avenue, Indianapolis, IN 46208. For enrollment and openings, call (317) 466-0015. Intake begins with an inquiry, continues with a center visit, and requires forms and medical review; after approval, staff develop an individualized plan with the participant and family. Ask what paperwork to bring and whether there is space on the days the caregiver needs.
A Caring Place differs from CICOA or Meals on Wheels home delivery: it offers a daytime setting with social contact and supervision. That distinction helps families match a program to the main need. If a caregiver needs daytime respite and the older adult can travel with available support, request an intake conversation and describe diagnoses, medications, and mobility needs.
