Brown Deer Place in Coralville, IA

I would recommend if the person had severe dementia, they are very friendly the only complaint she has is that the food is not very good.

Cedar Village Senior Residences in Cedar Rapids, IA
4.0

My love one is doing fine since her move to this community. We have not had any problems, or concerns. We do feel she is safe, and in good hands. They have a kind, friendly staff. They do a good job with the cleanliness around the community. Everything is going well, and this is probably would be a community we would recommend.

Regency Heights in Iowa City, IA

Mom is doing very well here she has settled in nicely. She has wonderful friendly neighbors. Her apartment is good she has washer dryer inside her apartment which is wonderful. The staff is friendly and nice. The community itself does not offer any sort of activities but the residents make their own social hours whether it be doing a potluck on a Sunday night or the ladies looking forward to the mailman coming around and capturing their attention for while and chatting what ever it is they seem to enjoy it. I do have a couple of issues that have concerned me in regards to safety. Normally the building itself is locked and the resident needs a code to be able to let you in but it has been mentioned that the back door has been left ajar and there have been family members of residents found staying the night sleeping in the common area coach. If arrangments like that have been made with the staffing a general notification should go out to the residents so they are aware. Putting aside those issues this place is wonderful I am pleased.

There's a fair amount of turnover in dining staff because of low wages and tips are forbidden. The facility is close to University Hospital. There are many activities offered for residents.
