The Keystones of Cedar Rapids offers Assisted Living and Memory Care, allowing residents to step up or modify the level of help they receive without changing communities. Care teams are prepared to assist with diabetes management, respite stays, and speech therapy, ensuring residents who need short-term recovery or ongoing communication support can remain on site rather than transferring elsewhere.
A secured community design helps protect residents who may be prone to wandering, while on-site clinicians address a range of medical and daily-living needs. Services include medication management, incontinence support, ambulatory assistance, hospice coordination, and programs designed specifically to accommodate memory loss. Licensed nurses oversee care, and occupational, physical, and podiatry specialists visit regularly so residents can access therapy and foot care without leaving the building.
Residences are air-conditioned and can include features such as kitchenettes, wheelchair-accessible showers, Wi-Fi, cable or satellite TV, and private balconies or patios. Some apartments look onto outdoor areas, while others are near a central fireplace, piano, or shared deck. Parking and handicap-accessible layouts are available, but not every accommodation offers every feature, so it is best to confirm specifics during a tour.
Dining is handled by a professional chef who prepares three daily meals along with an all-day dining menu. Options include international dishes as well as specialized choices such as gluten-free, low- or no-sodium, no-sugar, and vegan selections. Guests can join residents for meals, allowing families to sample the cuisine firsthand.
Residents can take part in programs at the activity center, enjoy raised garden beds along outdoor walking paths, or relax during scheduled happy hours. The community hosts yoga and chair yoga sessions, Montessori and sensory-based activities, intergenerational events, birthday celebrations, live music, and social outings. A library and computer lounge, various clubs, fitness classes, and a swimming pool round out the amenity set, providing structured and informal opportunities for engagement each day.
