Key Review Excerpts
“My husband and I brought a resident back to the facility following the resident’s hospital stay . This was mid afternoon on a Friday, June 5. I used the directions on the display panel in the entryway to contact staff to let us in. I was not able to contact staff.”
“The dining room was beautifully decorated and laid out. I can’t stop thinking about the mail we had that day prepared by an executive chef, the chef came out to our table for a visit and explained how the food was made completely from scratch real mashed potatoes, fresh fruit, fresh vegetables all the meat was cut by hand.”
“Independence Village has been an amazing partner in her recovery and adjustment to Iowa life. She has gotten her smile back, enjoys the staff and can regularly be seen encouraging and extending emotional care to other”
