Last week was all about sweet smiles and delicious milkshakes as we kicked back with our special guest, Gucci the Cow! ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฅค Our activities coordinator had a blast dressing up and keeping the energy high, but we know who stole the showโ€”Gucci!

Laughter filled the air, and everyone enjoyed a taste of summer. These moments remind us of the joy in every day! Thanks again to Mason Corkery for letting us meet Gucci!

They eat pests like ticks and even carry less than 1% of rabies due to their low body temperature! Thank you, Megan, for sharing your knowledge and introducing us to Posie!

๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿฆ‹ NorthCrest is buzzing with excitement! Our residents have been busy lately having a fantastic time on our butterfly scavenger hunt! They used nets to catch the butterflies that were put all over our facility, used their creativity to color wooden butterflies and some even had their hair done with colorful butterfly clips!

We also enjoyed an outing to the movie theater to freshen up on our Kung Fu skills as we sat and enjoyed "Kung Fu Panda 4"! There were plenty of laughs, movie theater popcorn (of course) and cherished memories made along the way.

At NorthCrest, we prioritize creating joyful experiences for our residents. If you're considering a place where your loved ones can thrive, or if you're interested in joining our dedicated team, we'd love to hear from you!

Our Story

Built in 2014, NorthCrest Specialty Care is designed for providing excellent health care for seniors in a homelike setting. Located in the northern corridor of Waterloo, our dedicated staff work as a team with each patientโ€™s primary physician and family to develop a personal plan of care. Our new Rehab to Home wing offers each patient a private room with a private bath, cable television, and Wi-Fi access in addition to state-of-the-art therapy programs in physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy. For outpatient clients, we have an easy-access, private entrance to make your trip and therapy appointment as convenient as possible. For all of our residents, NorthCrest offers an in-house beauty salon, a soothing whirlpool spa with entertainment center featuring a built-in TV, a 12-seat theater, dental, podiatry and psychiatric services on site. Residents have the opportunity to participate in a variety of activities to keep them engaged and even entertained. โ€œElvisโ€ frequently stops by to serenade and rock the house. Area residents often bring in their pets โ€“ turtles, ponies, goats โ€“ for an afternoon visit. The outdoor, fenced-in patio is ideal as an afternoon reading spot or picnic. Shopping trips to Wal-Mart are routinely scheduled. Seasonal parties are held for residents and families and friends.
