PositiveStoryPoint Urbandale
Care she gets I think is very good and a "5". Administration is not as responsive, other than Brandon there is also very good. Took months to get billing - including the head of the facility - to figure out an overpayment (thousands of dollars) - and the first bill after the adjustment is back to the prior (incorrect) amount. My aunt is doing really well physically with their care. It's great to have medical staff on hand. Very appreciative of the caregivers' services.
★★★★★
PositiveGreat fit for memory care
It is strictly memory care! By using this one we didn't have so many residents compared to nursing homes. Staff has been exceptionally helpful, supportive, and patient! There are so many activities, [name removed] doesn't use them but she gets social interaction. First room she had by herself. Lots of room! She rooms with another woman and plenty of room. They do their best to keep everyone moving and in groups.

Caring staff, very attentive, I know my loved one is very well liked by the staff. Nurses on duty 24/7. Yes I would recommend for someone with middle and advanced Alzheimers only,
★★★★★
PositiveGreat staff, great care
It's one big family, everyone loves everyone. All of the staff cares! The receptionist, [name removed], is exceptional. She's so nice and helpful. We were so pleased with care my brother received, I would recommend Story Point any time.
★★★★★
PositiveOur Family's Experience
The staff and activities are what make this place a great place. The staff are very friendly and caring. The cleanliness can be hit or miss, but I understand this can be difficult with so many patients at such an advanced stage of dementia and memory care issues. My mother in law is in decline but has maintained a pleasant attitude, so this has made our visits easier.
★★★★★
PositiveOverall excellent community
Very good experience so far. Everyone really seems to know my mom and her personality. Yes, we would absolutely recommend StoryPoint Urbandale to other families based on the experience so far.
