Swan Place in Carroll, Iowa, is an assisted-living community that delivers 12–16-hour licensed nursing coverage each day and maintains an on-call team for after-hours needs. Nurses coordinate medication management and work closely with residents who manage diabetes, whether through oral medications or insulin injections. Care staff can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, and eating, while residents who are able to handle toileting independently are supported with dignified oversight. Although the community offers some memory-support programming, it is not intended for residents with diagnosed dementia conditions requiring a secured setting.
Additional health services include in-house physical and occupational therapy, hospice coordination, incontinence management, and regular ambulatory assessments. An emergency call system and a comprehensive sprinkler system reinforce safety, and caregivers are trained to perform a wide range of transfers, from standby help for walkers to two-person or Hoyer lift moves. Residents benefit from an enclosed courtyard that supports safe outdoor access and a pet-focused program designed to maintain the well-being of companion animals already on site.
Private and semi-private suites may feature kitchenettes for light meal preparation, and all living spaces come with routine housekeeping. Because floor plans vary, not every accommodation offers every feature, so prospective residents should confirm specific details during a tour.
Meals follow a set menu that is adjusted seasonally, with snacks available throughout the day and a private dining room that can be reserved for family gatherings. The culinary team prepares mechanical-chopped, puréed, and thickened-liquid options, and a vegetarian choice is always available. Staff members are trained to provide full assistance at mealtimes for residents who need help with eating.
Residents have access to an on-site barber and beauty shop for hair care and grooming. Scheduled transportation is offered for medical appointments, ensuring residents can reach local physicians, therapists, and hospitals when needed.
