Our Approach to Care

Four Levels of Care.

Life at the Suites of Ankeny has just the right balance of privacy and support. That’s why we created a tiered living model with one goal in mind: to support residents at exactly the level they need today… giving each person a confident foundation for long-term independence. 

You can rest assured, as needs evolve, care adapts — seamlessly, compassionately, and without disruption.

We understand that peace of mind is paramount. That’s why our compassionate team is available around the clock to provide personalized support and assistance.

Level 1
Independent
Self-Sufficient

For seniors who are independent and desire a community with hospitality services. Enjoy chef-prepared meals, social programs, pendant call system and the comfort knowing support is nearby when you need it.

Level 2
Easy Street
maintenance free living

We know you can do it on your own, but you don’t have to! Level 2 is all about taking a load off… literally. Let us take care of your laundry and housekeeping services. You will have more time to enjoy what life is really about.

Level 3
Peace Of Mind
Here for you

When medication management becomes a chore or a worry… we are here for you. Level 3 adds medication management and shower assistance 2x a week by our compassionate, competent, and discrete staff. 

Level 4
We Got You
A Helping hand

We all need a hand sometimes. Level 4 includes everything plus we can do a one person assist. That means, you need a little help transferring to your bed? Just use the pendant call system and we will be on our way. We got you.
