Lantern Park Nursing and Rehab

Lantern Park Nursing & Rehab sits in Coralville, IA at 915 20th Ave, where they handle a range of care for seniors who need help daily or are facing health changes that need special support, and you'll see that the place takes folks who need both short- and long-term help, from skilled nursing and rehab services for people recovering from an illness or injury to hospice care for those at the end of life, and there's also respite care if a regular caregiver needs a break. The staff includes people like CNA Shelby Wenman, Assistant Director of Nursing Hannah Oliver, Licensed Practical Nurse Sabrina Brummet, and Dietary Aide Abby Slaton, all working with a team of between 11 and 50 employees, who aim to help with everything from bathing and dressing to medication, eating needs, special diets and even non-ambulatory and diabetic care. The community covers things like independent living, letting active seniors live alone with less stress, or assisted living, making sure daily needs don't get overlooked, and they pay attention to those with dementia or Alzheimer's with specialized memory care-where spaces are set up to reduce confusion and help keep folks from wandering away. Inside, you'll find indoor common rooms, big spaces for physical fitness, places for devotional programs, and areas for people to gather for offsite or on-site group activities, providing things like Wi-Fi or high-speed internet, handicap-accessible rooms, sometimes even pet-friendly options, and gluten-free meal planning if it's needed. Meals come from chefs and planners who focus on good nutrition and safe ingredients, and the program runs with a continuum of care, so as people's needs change, they can stay in the same place. It's a nursing home at its core, especially fit for seniors who need 24-hour attention due to serious health conditions, and they work to support both physical rehab and help with mental health challenges with pretty comprehensive services right there in Coralville.
