Grand Haven Eldridge, IA

Grand Haven was large and open. The room was big, so Mom could put in her own belongings. She would have her own bathroom, and she could bring in her own bed. The place was very good. They always have activities going on like trips. They would have 3 meals plus snacks. They can have ice cream any time they want, and they can also have any kind of food if they're hungry at any time. It was very good talking with the people there. They were very upbeat and all were saying "hi" to Mom. The residents can also help grow the garden and grow their own vegetables.

The rooms at Grand Haven were excellent. The staff were great. There were less men. I previewed the memory care unit, and they were just eating at a table, so I was not so impressed with the memory care unit. But other than that, it was 5-star. I would like to see a little more interaction on the memory care unit than what I saw, but I guess it was just the timing of my visit.

My mom moved into Grand Haven. We chose it because my mother-in-law is also there, and it works for my mom. They have music at the hall. She has three meals a day. They have transportation to doctors and different places. They have mystery trips. They help bathe her, and they have nurses on duty around the clock. They clean her room and wash her car. I think the food is very good. She doesn't have any complaints.
