Assisted Living Tidbits:

News item 11.28.2007 - It seems like every other news story about assisted living facilities have to do with fires destroying all or part of the facility in question. These are unfortunate stories, as it displaces people who aren't as able to move or find temporary housing.

This year, the Rose of Waterloo (Iowa) was ravaged by a fire. This is an affordable assisted living facility at the crossroads of Oak Avenue and Franklin Street in Waterloo. This is a new facility that had been slated to open in August, but unfortunately, due to the fire, that date was pushed back.

Happily, the facility is opening in December. It's being called a miracle that the facility was able to open so quickly after the fire.

The Rose of Waterloo is the largest of three Rose facilities with 64 units. There are mostly single bedrooms, but several are doubles. The facility also offers a variety of floor plans. Moderate to low income seniors are eligible to live at the Rose.

To find out if your are eligible for this facility, please call (319) 232-6061.

Some of the facility's features and amenities include: a sit-down service dining area, a fifty seat theater, a chapel room, computer room, a library, and a large community room that can hold a large number of people.

Congratulations to the Rose of Waterloo on your December opening!

Senator Tom Harkin of Iowa has fought for the rights and better care of our senior Citizens: "He has fought attempts to cut Social Security benefits and proposed legislation to help ensure the financial strength of Social Security and improve benefits for women. He opposes efforts to "privatize" Social Security and turn much of the program over to the stock market; he believes privatization will take the security out of Social Security.

Iowa holds the crown for the highest percentage of elderly citizens

Did you know? The United States General Accounting Office estimates that the costs for nursing homes will triple over the course of the next 20 years. Right now the average yearly cost of nursing home care is over $60,000 (2002 estimate). For exclusive facilities, that number is over $100,000. Both of these numbers are higher for larger cities

Iowa residents over the age of 65 make up 14.6 percent of the total state population. This is over 2 percent higher than the national average, and the second highest percentage in the nation.

There are numerous assisted living and long-term care options in Iowa with different amenities and services.
