Northridge Village in Ames, Iowa maintains on-site medical oversight that includes scheduled wellness checks performed by licensed nursing staff. This clinical attention supports residents in Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care, allowing health concerns to be identified early and addressed in coordination with outside providers when necessary.
In addition to routine health monitoring, the community offers 24-hour assistance with daily activities, medication management, and transportation to local medical appointments. Memory Care residents receive structured programming in a secure environment, while Assisted Living residents can request help with bathing, dressing, and mobility. Independent Living residents retain a higher level of autonomy but may add supportive services if their needs change.
Residences consist of private or shared apartments, and most include utilities such as electricity, water, and basic cable. Some units offer direct access to landscaped outdoor areas, while others are situated near the library and computer lounge; not every floor plan includes all of these features.
Dining is provided three times daily in a communal setting with table service. Modified diets, smaller portions, and take-away options are available, and residents can use shared kitchen areas to prepare snacks, though individual kitchens are not part of every apartment.
An on-site activity center schedules fitness sessions, educational talks, and social gatherings, giving residents a consistent place to stay engaged without leaving the property.
