Recent reviews of Nursing Homes in Grinnell, IA
The Bridges at Ankeny
4.8

My mom stayed at The Bridges for her rehab after her shoulder surgery. The therapy team was amazing and always took the time with her. She is grateful to have recovered and is back home. But, if we need to go somewhere in the future THE BRIDGES IS WHERE WE WOULD GO!!

The Rose of East Des Moines
4.8

We are very happy with The Rose of East Des Moines. They are clean and the staff is very friendly. We thought the medicaid thing would be easier to do, that has added a little extra expense. The nurses are fantastic, the care is great. The activities have a really great variety, Wii Bowling, card games all different things like that. There have been no complaints about the food. The paperwork processing had a lot of delay in the beginning, and we had to stay in a hotel for over a month. We liked the location, and the outside was really well kept and cheerful with a lot of garden space, and very appealing. The other places looked very dark, not very encouraging. This is the perfect median for anyone in that in between stage of independent and assisted living.

Courtyard Estates at Hawthorne Crossing in Bondurant, IA
5.0
