Recent reviews of Memory Care in Albia, IA
River Valley Place of Ottumwa
5.0

Moved in with my wife in 2016 and I dont think I would have been able to handle her unexpected passing without the help of the staff here and the support of my neighbors. Since my wife has been gone, I have still been able to be cared for and yet maintain my independence. I like that I can jump in my car in and go visit family or have them over to my apartment.

Homestead of Centerville
5.0

Homestead of Centerville was the ideal place for my mother. The staff was professional, personable, and aimed to please at any time of day or night. The facility is clean, well lit and maintained, and free of odor and clutter. When mom required adapted assistance, the staff was willing to accomodate within regulation. The meals were outstanding, with the option of an Ala carte menu to please any picky eater. The activity director keeps residents engaged and makes days fun. We were all very comfortable with mom living there. A very quiet, controlled environment with all the privacy or engaging activities anyone could desire. Great to see smiling faces at all times! I would recommend Homestead of Centerville to anyone looking for assisted living and care.
