We were sold because of the song and dance the salesman gave us. He pranced the activity director in who went on and on about her wonderful activity program. This has been the biggest disappointment ever! Very sad activity program. He was a true salesman and got us on the song and dance. On a happy note nursing had been great and food pretty good.

Things started out good but they started to decline quite rapidly. They had huge turnover. Some of the meals were absolutely gross some were not designed for elderly people in walkers.

Such a vibrant community set in the heart of my Dad's hometown of Beaverdale! He loves the staff and residents and says he enjoys sitting out front on Beaver Ave watching the traffic go by! Dad loves it and it was an easy adjustment for him! Thank you to all who made this a seamless move for him from the tour to the move in! He is happy!

June 5, 2024Dear JD – We know quality counts and are so glad to hear your mom is enjoying her new home at Edencrest at Beaverdale and our quality activities and team members. We are so glad to hear how much she enjoys our new movie theater! Thanks for leaving your review!
I've had the privilege to volunteer many times at Eden Crest and have been truly impressed each time at how kind, compassionate and fun the staff are. I would feel comfortable with my parents or loved one living here. It is always clean and staff are seen talking with the residents like they are family. I have observed residents to appear comfortable, happy and genuinely treated with respect and care. Eden Crest is cozy and inviting and the staff are just delightful. I have had many interactions with the director who is nothing but genuine, kind, and shows a genuine interest in ensuring that the residents are happy, comfortable and provided with the best level of quality care and fun environment. It is also located right in the heart of Beaverdale which is a lovely and safe neighborhood nestled in Des Moines.

We toured looking for my Mom. We are just starting to look, but loved the business/activities here and the cleanliness. Everyone was so friendly from the tour guide to those we met! Thanks!

Our Edencrest Beaverdale tour was excellent. [name removed] was very friendly and informative. Beaverdale didn't have the best view of the outdoors. But the ambiance was better there than Edencrest Green Meadows.
Edencrest was nice, but the views not as good and seemed to me that it needed updating.
I moved my mom out of Edencrest Beaverdale on July 1. I moved all essential personal items, leaving only large furniture items behind. According to Edencrest administration, I had until the end of July to move my mom’s furniture out of her room. On July 9, I returned with help to move furniture. I was astonished when I walked into the room and it was empty. All of my mom’s furniture was gone. When I asked staff, they said it was all moved and most of it was taken to the garbage. My daughter was told staff members were allowed to take what they wanted, prior to trashing possessions. My daughter was told by [name removed] (Regional director of sales & operations ; Jaybird Senior living) we would be compensated for all possessions that were destroyed. I have been e-mailing, and trying to work with [name removed - regional director] for more than two months to rectify the situation. There has been no progress made and little to no communication.
This facility has such a turn over in staffing due to very low pay. The management cares about bottom dollar and not residents of the facility. Meals are awful, as the residents if you can get them away from management to be truthful. They don't have choices in meals like they say, it's what ever the special of the day is and only offer food at meal times otherwise it's not available. Be careful of the pricing, they increase prices at least yearly and sometimes even more often. They spend money on pretty but not on residents care.

March 4, 2022Thank you for your feedback. We would like to discuss further and get details on your experience. Please reach out to the Regional Director of Operations, Nick Lensch, at nlensch@jaybirdsl.com or by phone 515-201-5056.
We have not been there for the meals ourselves but from looking off the menu they look appetizing. Our loved one does not always participate in the activities but what she does, she really enjoys. We like the size of the community, with it being smaller we feel our loved one can get around easily. We would recommend this community to other family and friends.

Beware of the corporate guidelines before placing a loved one in this home. As they are corporate they do not follow the guidelines of a state owned care facility. They will hold your loved one captive from family members due to strict COVID guidelines that other care facilities are loosing up on. 24 hours to reserve a visit your loved one and then for only five days a week.. where is their compassion.???

I would recommend this community, it was a good choice for my loved one. The people really care for the residents that live here. The communication was good with the staff and families. I don't think I would change anything about the community.
