Prairie Hills at Tipton opened in 2005 and offers assisted living, independent living, and memory care for seniors. The community has several types of apartments, including studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and different suites such as Oak, Cedar, Maple, and Hemlock, each with simple features like a kitchenette, air conditioning, cable TV, refrigerator, freezer, microwave, and Wi-Fi. The apartments have window treatments and allow pets, so furry companions can stay. Some spaces look out over well-kept grounds, walking paths, ponds, and flower gardens, and there are outdoor spots to sit and relax or socialize with friends and family.
Prairie Hills at Tipton has activities that help seniors stay healthy and enjoy life, with things like fitness classes, art programs, crafts, billiards, cards, games, and movies. There's also a library, lounge, beauty salon, and game room for people who want to spend quiet or social time indoors. The fitness center and senior fitness program try to keep residents moving, and the whirlpool spa gives a space to unwind. The staff organizes group outings, daily activities, and meals served restaurant-style three times a day, cooked fresh in the kitchen, and residents can choose to eat in their rooms if they prefer. The community offers laundry and housekeeping services each week to keep things easy, plus scheduled rides for shopping or medical trips in town.
For seniors who need it, staff can help with everyday needs like bathing, dressing, grooming, taking medicine, and using the restroom, with personalized care plans for each person. There are also memory care apartments for people who need extra support. People who live there have access to emergency help and 24-hour maintenance if something goes wrong, and there's a focus on keeping every person comfortable, safe, and active. The place feels friendly, with cozy spaces to gather, home-cooked meals, and staff who try to make life easier and more pleasant for everyone.
