I recently had a school project where I presented oral care education to the staff at this assisted living facility, and I had such a great experience. They were incredibly receptive from the start and immediately welcomed the opportunity to have me come in. The staff was very friendly, engaged, and genuinely interested in learning how to better care for their residents’ oral health. It was clear that they truly care about the people they serve and go above and beyond to support their overall well-being, including oral care. From what I observed, they do a wonderful job making sure their residents are well cared for in every aspect. I would absolutely recommend this facility to anyone looking for a place where residents are treated with kindness and attention.

My husband and I toured Independence Village of Waukee to see about his mother possibly moving into their community. We were very impressed with their facility. Alivia, who took us on the tour, was very friendly and thorough about details of living there. It was obvious as we toured that Alivia is liked by residents and people there appeared content and happy. The rooms were spacious with adequate closet and storage space. Alivia described numerous activities that their residents can do and be involved in. The price to live there is more reasonable and affordable compared to other retirement facilities we have toured. We would definitely recommend it to others looking for a place for their loved ones!

It doesn't get any better than Independence Village. My mother came to for a respite visit. She has been treated like a Queen. The staff catered to her every need. She said it's like a family and everyone gets along very well. She had to go to the hospital and they brought her flowers. They have an ambassador program and they came to visit her, take her to lunch, and share the great services Independence Village offers.
