These seniors have access to three assisted living facilities in Granger, with another 14 in nearby cities such as South Bend and Mishawaka.

These assisted living facilities earn licensing from the Indiana State Department of Health's Residential Care Facility Licensing Program. This oversight ensures that these facilities deliver optimal care to seniors in Granger and the rest of the state.
