Western Home Communities Cedar Falls, IA

I found Western Home Communities to be very helpful, accommodating, and I wanted us to make it our home. They let us pick the new carpet and we could hang curtains that we wanted or they could hang them for us. They are going to put an extra hold bar for me. We haven't moved in yet, but it sounded like there's something going on every day and it's all free of charge.

The rooms at Western Home Communities were beautiful. I was satisfied with the place during the visit. It was small but very nice. I would definitely recommend this place.

The staff is always visible and friendly. At every visit, I see at least 4 different staff members in the halls or reception area. They seem to enjoy their job with the elderly and most residents seem to enjoy their surroundings. This home has many daily activites and they try to get all residents involved as much as possible. Weather permitting, the staff will take groups of residents outside for a stroll in the gardens or simply to sit in the gazebo. The rooms are very clean as well as the residents! Every quarter, family members are invited to a care meeting which provides updates and any concerns. If there are any concerns, they are addressed and followup meetings are scheduled every other week until the concern is taken care of. They also take care of scheduling quarterly Dr's appointments for a general checkup. They notify the family when the appointment is and provide transportation to and from the appointment. They have a wonderful Christmas program and dinner every year. During the festivites, family pictures are offered at no charge. It is a very comforting feeling to know that my Aunt Mary is being taken care of in the way that she deserves!

This place is the best, the staff are very friendly and helpful to the residents. The overall appearance of the facility is clean. In many facilities like this, there is usually a bad odor in the air, much like urine. In this facility this was not the case. The facility has it's own pool for use, a fully loaded sensory room, more than adequate space for common and dining areas, and an overall sense of professionalism. From the clients that I have had interactions with, they all seem very content with the services that they are provided, and their opportunity for community outings occurs frequently.
