The unpredictable Iowa weather became a blessing in disguise, as it allowed Brio of Johnston to kick-start Spring early for residents with an enchanting visit to the Des Moines Botanical Garden, where nature's beauty rejuvenates the soul.
Connecting to nature has a profoundly uplifting effect, reducing stress, boosting mood, and cultivating mindfulness. Furthermore, bonding with friends and neighbors added an extra layer of joy and wellness to the experience.
The vibrant blooms served as a vivid reminder that Spring's arrival is just around the corner, bringing with it a fresh wave of hope and promise. 🌷

A lot of smiles at Brio this week!

On Wednesday we honored our Be the One award winner, Justin, for all extra support he has brought to the facilities team over the last couple of months! This award celebrates team members who go the Extra Mile for our community, and Justin does so with JOY!

We also had "Spring Break at Brio" which included delicious smoothies, island music, and hula-hooping (which was harder than we remembered it being)!

This week, residents across three WesleyLife communities for healthy living had the opportunity to spend time with the two executive leaders who are leading organization into its next chapter.

Wesley on Grand; The Village, A WesleyLife Community; and Brio of Johnston, a WesleyLife Community, each hosted town hall conversations with WesleyLife president and CEO Rob Kretzinger and chief operating officer — and incoming CEO — Allison Pendroy.

Residents asked thoughtful questions, shared observations about life in their communities, and heard directly from both leaders about what comes next.

For many, the town halls marked a meaningful opportunity for residents to spend time with Rob as he prepares to retire this June after decades of leadership with WesleyLife. It also offered them a chance to meet Allison and hear her perspective as she prepares to guide the organization into its next chapter.

Throughout the conversations, one message remained clear: The foundation that guides WesleyLife will not change. Our mission continues to lead the way: Guided by Christian compassion, we support the independence, health, and well-being of older adults wherever they call home.

Thank you to the residents of Wesley on Grand, The Village, and Brio of Johnston for the thoughtful conversations, warm welcomes, and strong engagement. Additional town halls will follow in the coming days.

We are proud to announce that three of our communities for healthy living have been named 5-star campuses — the highest possible rating — by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Congratulations to Brio of Johnston, a WesleyLife Community in Johnston, Iowa; Edgewater-A WesleyLife Active Life Community in West Des Moines, Iowa; and Fieldstone of DeWitt, a WellSpire Community in DeWitt, Iowa; and kudos to all who played a role in earning this rating on behalf of those campuses.

Congratulations as well to our communities that were awarded 4 stars: Halcyon House-A WesleyLife Community in Washington, Iowa; Heritage House-A WesleyLife Community in Atlantic, Iowa; The Village, A WesleyLife Community in Indianola, Iowa; and Wesley on Grand in Des Moines, Iowa.

CMS created the highly regarded "star" system to help consumers, their families, and caregivers compare communities more easily, using such quality measures as health outcomes and staffing to determine success. CMS considers communities with 5-star designations to be exemplary in the care they provide; 4-star communities provide care designated as "very good."

Choose WesleyLife's communities with confidence, knowing you or your family member will receive quality services from a community that helps to set the industry standard!
