Assisted Living Communities in Elk Horn, IA

"Allen Place assisted living was very clean. The apartments that they had were nice and it's a big facility, so you can walk around inside and get plenty of exercise. We saw 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom apartments and they were nice and good sized. They have all kinds of activities. They have dominoes and cards. They also have a library and a pool table. They have an exercise area and they also have an outdoor area that's enclosed, so it's very nice."

"We toured Exira Care Center. They were very informative. They answered questions. They were very patient with my mother, which is always important. It was a very good experience. They had a very nice open family area to gather. They offered an emergency alert system, which I thought was very, very nice for the apartments where they could access and get help. The apartments were clean and a nice size for two people. It's very clean, very friendly, and very warm."

"Heritage House was very inviting. It was very clean and very uplifting. They're very nice people. It was a very positive experience. We visited them for my parents. The staff was very helpful, very friendly, very patient, and very eager to answer questions. They had an available activity room for families to gather, which was very nice. They had an open cafe where people can gather as well, which made it all look like a very inviting home environment. They offer meals, too."

"The help at Elm Crest Retirement Community is very good. There’s a closet inside the door to the room, and it’s a good size. The kitchen is right there too. There isn’t any stove, but there’s a microwave, and it has cupboards up above and a cupboard down below. There’s a small refrigerator, and the living area is kind of joined up with the bedroom. I have my bed in one end, and I have a computer too. "
