Brown Deer Place in Coralville, IA
4.0

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.

The facility is beautiful and very clean and Mom receives excellent care from the friendly staff. Mom is in a one bedroom and it's the perfect size for her, spacious but not so large that she has trouble getting from room to room. The amenities in the apartment are excellent including a full sized kitchen.

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.
