Overall, the experience was ok. We felt that with our loved one being such a people person. He didn't get enough human interaction, felt isolated and depressed. When he was moved to [name removed], he perked up because he had more people to interact with. The Pella facility was a beautiful place, but the memory care unit was just too isolated for him since he wasn't a tv watcher necessarily.

October 17, 2024Hi Robert, It’s wonderful to hear that you had the opportunity to fly on the plane! We truly appreciate your feedback and are glad you enjoyed the experience. Thank you for sharing!
Gone are nights of lying awake weighing the safety/health of my parents against their happiness/freedom! They haven’t second guessed the wisdom of their choice of an Independent Living apartment. They sleep well and are comfortable in their spacious new home. I hear about their new friends, both residents and staff. Dad recently told his doctor that he would rather have stayed on the farm, but this is exactly where they should be at this life stage. They love the meal per day that is included and rave about the quality, taste and variety. I love that they are guaranteed a healthy meal and social interaction each day. The flexibility of choosing which meal to eat on the spur of the moment allows them more freedom. The number and variety of activities is staggering. I find myself looking at the options and wishing I could tag along! After each visit, I thank God that Independence Village provides increased safety/health while actually improving my parents’ happiness/freedom!

I was able to move back home after my stay at Independence Village. I had a fair sized studio apartment that had a fully equipped kitchen. The layout was easy for me to navigate with my wheelchair and walker while I was undergoing rehab and recovery from a broken ankle. The staff is very caring, friendly, and helpful. They are willing to go a step beyond when needed.

My wife and I toured Independence Village this past week. We were very impressed. From the upkeep of the facility, the options of living spaces, to the meal we were offered, we couldn’t have had a better experience. Even more impressive was all of the staff members we met. They were dedicated to the facility, the residents and totally made us feel welcome as a visitor and potential future resident. I would absolutely recommend Independence Village to anyone. We look forward to being a resident in the future.
