Whispering Willow Assisted Living and Memory Wing rests among the gently swaying grasses and fertile fields of the Northeastern Iowa plains. Small-town values are alive and well at this assisted living community where residents enjoy the good life surrounded by friends and neighbors.

Staff at Whispering Willow were wonderful with my Dad during his short stay. Both staff and the other residents were kind and encouraging. Dad even found a brother and sister he knew, who he spent time with in his high school years. As Dad started to decline, staff kept me updated with changes on a regular basis. I appreciated this so much. I couldn’t have gone through everything the past several months without the amazing staff at Whispering Willow.

A Great Community
My mom recently moved into this community. So far the experience has been going great. The staff know how to keep the facility clean. My mom has plenty of options to choose for her meals and it seems to think it tastes good.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Iowa regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Iowa regulations for Assisted Living.

Frequently Asked Questions
about Whispering Willow

Whispering Willow offers Studio and 1 Bedroom. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Whispering Willow 8 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
