Rose of Waterloo offers seniors a comfortable place to live with roomy one- and two-bedroom apartments that come with full kitchens-there's a dishwasher and disposal, big closets, bathroom vanities, and in-unit storage, and every apartment has controls for air conditioning and carpet in neutral colors, plus wide windows with mini-blinds and large showers with built-in seats, so folks can feel at home and move about easily whether they're on their own or need help. Meals get served daily in a pleasant atrium dining room with a private chef making sure there's variety and nice flavors, and there's all-day dining, so you can eat when you're hungry and special diets get attention too. Residents can join all sorts of activities-there's a big Activities Room and a Community Room with a kitchen, so gatherings, arts and crafts, and games fill the calendar, and the Activity Program keeps things lively with planned events and social groups all week.
The Chapel doubles as a Theater for movie nights and spiritual gatherings, and in the Computer Den and Library you'll see book clubs, chances to learn new things, and a cozy fireplace for reading, and folks can hop on the internet if they wish. Outdoors, the building's surrounded by landscaped pathways for gentle exercise, plus back patio gardens with raised beds, a front porch, and quiet spots to enjoy the sun or visit with friends, and pets are welcome too, so it feels like a regular neighborhood. On-site, there's a barber and beauty salon, a whirlpool bath for assisted bathing, and a fitness room, along with therapy services and a wellness spa, while laundry rooms sit on each floor and off-street parking is ready for residents and guests.
Professional care's available around the clock, with 24-hour emergency response, nursing on staff 12-16 hours a day, and medication help, so folks who need assistance-whether for bathing, dressing, transferring, or memory care-get support right away, and Open Arms Home Health Care operates on-site. The staff provides both assisted living and skilled nursing, and there's memory care for those living with dementia, plus the Lifecare program unique to Cedar Valley that gives a continuum of care, covering personal needs as they change-including skilled palliative care, short-term stays, and SureCare Services for those wanting some support at home. Help with laundry, meals in the room, housekeeping, and move-in coordination's available, and residents can invite family to stay over in the guest suite.
Rose of Waterloo encourages people to stay active and social, offering fitness programs, daily activities, and resident-run clubs, and there's a focus on independent living options for healthy seniors too. There are safety features like a 24-hour call system, wheelchair-accessible showers, and strict no smoking inside. Residents can get cable TV, Wi-Fi, furnished or bring their own furniture to decorate their suites, and transportation's offered free for shopping or appointments. The community lets home care agencies customize support if needed, so everyone can find the right level of care for them. Everything's set up to let seniors stay as independent as possible, while enjoying a range of activities, social time, spiritual care, and dependable support from staff if or when it's needed.
