The Bridges At Ankeny

My mother stayed at The Bridges at Ankeny. They had a good nursing staff. The facility was clean. We didn't see any activities. They were very expensive, that's why we moved her out of there. Some of the rooms were very well laid out, but some of them were too small. The atmosphere was good though.

Something has definitely changed in the food quality here over the last couple of days. It’s disgusting, I can’t believe that my aunt it’s paying all this money for basically dog food. I wish I could post my pictures, it’s terrible, someone is going to get sick, the shrimp was definitely undercooked today. Was the food at all cooked today?? Please consider if you’re staying here they food is poor quality, when I addressed the issue they didn’t seem to care.

My husband was at The Bridges at Ankeny, and he received excellent care. I was very happy with the care, and I was especially happy with their discharge planning because they were very clear about what his needs were and that kind of thing. They have a very nice and wonderful staff. My husband was on soft food, and they had to grind up all the food and everything. He was on a special diet, and as far as I could tell, it was fine. But my husband didn't like having to be on a special diet. His room was private, and it was good. The facility was beautiful, very well kept, and new. I didn't see any activities, and my husband didn't want any. But he did have physical therapy, so that kept him occupied. Medicare paid for this at this point because he came from a hospital.
