We wanted to inform everyone our phone lines are down right now and we are working hard to try to restore.
Our nurses, along with other staff, do have cell phones for emergencies.
Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

Nothing quite says fall in Iowa like deer hunting and chili. 🍂
Today, we hosted a deer hunt for our residents in the atrium forest, while actual deer roamed our property. 🦌
Our staff participated in a chili cook-off contest, featuring an Iowa classic cinnamon rolls. 🌶️Congratulations to Holly, Assistant Director of Nursing, on her win for her “Wendy’s Knock Off” chili!!! 🏆
