10 Best Nursing Homes in Peterson, IA

Both my Mother and now my Mother in law have been residents of Otsego Place. It has given my husband and I a great feeling of comfort knowing these two ladies had the best of care. The staff are like family, the food is excellent, and there are lots of activies for them to participate in. This is an independent living facility so they can come and go as they please. There are different levels of care so that if Mom has some issues you can taylor the care to her needs. Yes it costs more for each level of care, but good care is not cheap and we want the best for our parents.

I am no expert on what care should be like. I see people that are in pretty bad shape that require a lot of attention, in my opinion, questionable if they shouldn't be in skilled nursing instead. But what do I know!! Most of the workers try hard to be accommodating, but the shortage of help puts a load on all of them. Unfortunately, this is the world we live in today. The place is clean and does not smell. I wouldn't know if the food was good or not.. my mom eats and does not complain. Keelson was very accommodating when we reached a crisis point and needed a room. I don't know how often activities are encouraged. However the activities director is good with the residents. I would recommend this facility to others. I would recommend this facility to others.

My dads time at Bavarian Meadows was absolutely phenomenal. It was so much more home-like and had a great atmosphere. If we had known years ago that they would have been affordable for dad, I would have tried to talk him into going here a lot sooner. In spite of everything, they were very good about communicating what their expectations were during covid through text messages, social media, etc. The room sizes here were very spacious, they were private rooms with private bathrooms. Every-time I talked to my dad, he said they had the best food there. They were chef prepared meals and always had 3-4 choices off the menu each day, he loved it. My dad was 1 of only 3 male residents when he was here, so the activities were more based towards the females. I would let others know that they are strictly a private pay facility. I would highly recommend to others families who are looking and already have.
