About Richland Bean Blossom Health Care Center

+
Richland Bean Blossom Health Care Center is a nonprofit skilled nursing facility located at 5911 State Road 46 in Ellettsville, Indiana, serving residents of Monroe County and the greater Bloomington region. Operating as a nonprofit corporation, the center is driven by a community-first mission that prioritizes care quality, resident dignity, and local reinvestment over financial return — values that resonate deeply with families in this close-knit southern Indiana community. Ellettsville sits just west of Bloomington along State Road 46, placing Richland Bean Blossom in an ideal location for families affiliated with Indiana University and the broader Monroe County community. IU Health Bloomington Hospital, the region's primary acute care hospital, is located in Bloomington and serves as a key clinical partner for skilled nursing residents requiring hospital-level care. The proximity to IU Health's network means residents benefit from strong care coordination and ready access to specialist services. The surrounding landscape is one of the most naturally beautiful in Indiana. Lake Monroe, the state's largest inland lake, is just a short drive south on SR 446, offering stunning views and recreational opportunities for visiting families year-round. Leonard Springs Nature Park, a local gem tucked into the wooded hills south of Ellettsville, provides peaceful trails and natural scenery just minutes from the facility. Bloomington's vibrant B-Line Trail, Switchyard Park, and Showers Common give families a lively urban alternative for outings. The culinary and cultural scene along Bloomington's Kirkwood Avenue — home to restaurants, shops, and the Indiana University campus — is easily accessible and gives Ellettsville-area families an unusually rich set of options for visits. At Richland Bean Blossom Health Care Center, the care team delivers comprehensive skilled nursing services including post-acute rehabilitation, long-term nursing care, medication management, and support for residents with complex chronic conditions. The nonprofit governance structure ensures that resources are directed toward resident care, staff development, and facility quality. For Monroe County families seeking skilled nursing care rooted in community values and positioned near the academic and medical resources of Bloomington, Richland Bean Blossom Health Care Center stands as a trusted local option with a genuine commitment to the people it serves.
