Iowa is often referred to as the “Land of the Rolling Prairie” due to the immense fertile plains that cover the region. The state is famous for its farms, growing crops such as corn and soybeans. Iowa is more than just farmland, however – it’s home to many quaint, rural towns as well as larger cities such as Sioux City and Des Moines. Its varied landscape, relatively low cost of living, and proximity to major Midwestern cities like Chicago and Minneapolis make Iowa a convenient location to call home and a great place to retire.
There are more than 70 nursing homes in Iowa. A Place for Mom’s Senior Living Advisors can provide you with a list of nursing homes in Iowa to help you find the community that fits your needs and budget.
According to Genworth, the median monthly cost of a private room in a nursing home in Iowa is about $6,900. The median monthly price for a semi private room is around $6,400.
Comfortable happy, well treated by staff. When touring my son and I agreed this is the palce for me. I'm so glad to be here and not elsewhere. Staff is excellent and caring.

This is a very friendly place. There’s lots of activities to keep you busy. The only downside I have found is that if you’re a picky eater, you weren’t like this place I love it here.

No complaints ( except that folks hole up pretty soon after dinner !) The apartment size and location of the community is fine. I would recommend it to others who are searching for a place for their loved...
I had a mixed experience during a short respite stay. Some of the staff were very kind, attentive, and genuinely seemed to care about the residents. The monitoring system was reassuring, and whenever...
