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.
The place is beautiful, has great food and has a lot of activities going on. I wish they would encourage my dad to attend more activities.
My experience with them was great, however my mother moved herself out & is responsible for her own care. I would recommend them.
Apartment size was bigger than most. The layout of the apartment gave space for a larger dining area. Staff was attentive and went beyond to help when needed.
The staff are nice, from what I can tell. I know there's been a few things she's not happy with, like when they randomly started waking her up at 5:00am to use the bathroom and there was no reason for it....

What we like the most about the Edencrest at Riverwoods community is the friendliness of the staff and their willingness to make my mom as comfortable as possible in her last days.

In hind sight, overall it was good. It's complicated because my wife did not want to be there. It's a beautiful facility, always clean and maintained, food is awesome, staff and residents are friendly,...
The Views of CR get an A+ from me. My husband was only in MeadowView for around two months, but between the MeadowView staff and Hospice they took very good care of him right up until the end.
Thank you to all the staff at Storypoint for being so wonderful. The nurses, aides, activities, food staff, administrators, cleaning staff! Everyone did a wonderful job making mom's final year and a half a...
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...
Each room is cleaned once a week. I watched the girl "clean" my room- she needs to change the mop water. The dining and shared spaces are clean, they vacuum non stop. The staff were super friendly. I was...
