An absolute blessing for my mom! My mom recently stayed at Independence Village of Ankeny for two months, and we could not be happier with our experience. From the moment she arrived, she was truly treated like a queen. The entire staff is incredibly accommodating, caring, and attentive to every detail. They went above and beyond to make sure she felt comfortable and right at home. She absolutely loved the food, which was a huge plus, and her apartment was stunning—freshly remodeled, modern, and beautiful. A special shoutout to the physical therapists as well. They are absolutely incredible at what they do and provided top-notch care that made a noticeable difference during her stay. If you are looking for a community that combines excellent therapy, beautiful living spaces, delicious meals, and a deeply compassionate staff, I highly recommend Independence Village of Ankeny. They gave our family complete peace of mind.

Living at Independence Village has been a wonderful experience for my parents. The transition from another independent living facility wasn’t easy, but the staff made it so much smoother with their kindness and support. Both the memory care and assisted living teams are incredibly compassionate and genuinely care about the residents. It’s clear they don’t just do their jobs—they truly love what they do. I’m very grateful we found this community when we did. It has made a meaningful difference in my parents’ quality of life and given our family real peace of mind.

We have just left after saying goodbye to one of the most kind, patient, and loving women. PHANICE has been taking care of my mom in memory care and my dad in assisted living. Not only was Phanice loving and kind in every single interaction with my parents, she took care of me as well. She always listened and would check in on family all of the time. She was so sweet and caring to all of us, and she used her great sense of humor with my mom in the most therapeutic way! The patience she has shown my mom is truly so admirable. I really feel that I can't say enough about the quality of care that Phanice has provided. We have been so very thankful for the love and respect shown to us all by Phanice and are going to miss her so much!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR LOVE AND CARE!!! Heidi Nettrour and family
