Immanuel: Grand Lodge

Immanuel: Grand Lodge sits in Des Moines, offering a type B continuing care retirement community where folks can come in for independent living and, if life changes, they can get help with things like daily care, memory care, or even skilled nursing and rehab services, which makes it easier for people to settle in and not worry about moving again if their health changes, and they use special terms like Spark Lifestyle Program for memory care and Immanuel Pathways (PACE®) for extra support in Central Iowa and nearby areas. Residents here can choose independent living, assisted living, or memory care, and if someone needs more help, they can get long-term skilled nursing, short-term rehabilitation, respite care, or home care, with personal support like medication management, help with bathing or getting dressed, help with moving around, and 24-hour supervision. There's a dining room, furnished rooms, community activities like movie nights and game nights, emergency alert systems, internal medicine practitioners, and counseling services, and community services such as housekeeping and laundry, plus special meal preparations and chances to join in community events. Grand Lodge provides a not-for-profit approach to care, aiming to help residents keep as much independence as they can while having flexible services if more care is needed, and they're set up for those with mobility needs, chronic conditions, or dementia, with things like scheduled meals, move-in help, and plenty of group activities so folks can stay involved. The facility offers photos and videos of rooms, amenities, and activities so potential residents and their families can see what life looks like at Grand Lodge and, with all these choices, they do try to support seniors with services tailored to their own health needs and budgets.
