“We never want to be moved because we are the best of friends”, said the 2 ladies that reside in a room together at Urbandale Healthcare Center.
These 2 wonderful ladies met one another at the Senior Suites Assisted Living. They have not always been roommates, but it was fate that brought them both together and have become best friends!
They both moved to Urbandale Healthcare Center from Senior Suites. “It was the logical move once I needed long term care, a move across the parking lot.”
“The staff is very attentive to our needs, we both have the same issues medically so we can really relate on that. We watch the same shows and one of use always turns up the sound so we can both hear the program.”
“I would recommend Urbandale Healthcare Center to anyone!” – N and C, Urbandale Healthcare Center residents since 2020 and 2021.

Teresa admitted at Urbandale Healthcare Center in November 2021. She was able to discharge to home after a short Rehab to Home stay.
While a rehabilitation patient at Urbandale Healthcare Center, she participated in Speech, Occupational, and Physical Therapies. All of her hard work paid off, she was able to discharge to be Home for the Holidays with her family!
Teresa was one of Urbandale Healthcare Centers first stops to celebrate our 2 year anniversary for our Meals on the GO program! Teresa and her husband thanked Urbandale Healthcare Center for thinking of them and providing such a nice service.
“Urbandale Healthcare Center was the gresatest thing to happen to me after my stroke. I had a wonderful private room while I was recovering and doing my therapy. I feel the only reason I recuperated is because of the kindness of the staff and Jamie! Jamie was my nurse and was amazing to me, as well as the other people, but she stands out. I would highly recommend going to Urbandale Healthcare Center. The therapy people wore me out but it was all worth it!” -Teresa P. Home for the Holidays patient 11/21
"As before my stay at your facility was great. You are dedicated people doing a wonderful job caring for people, like myself, who would be lost without your assistance. You are very much appreciated by me and should the need arise in the future we will not hesitate staying with you again!"
- Bill J (Respite stay)
"I am so happy to have Mom back to Urbandale. When mom was in the hospital the staff seemed so task oriented and there was a lack of caring. I am so thankful for the Nursing staff and the Administrative team for the love and care UHCC provides to its residents!"

"Dad has been living in an Assisted Living for a couple of years and never called it home. While at Urbandale for rehab he referred to it as "home" and that is when we knew it was a special place. Priya, one of the floor nurses in TruRehab, is one of his favorites. She does an amazing job with him; she is always calm, patient, and caring. It's a special place."

"My stay in the rehab unit and physical and occupational therapy has been fantastic. It is quite apparent that the staff is very dedicated to the patients health and well being. You can tell by the way they treat the patients, they are friendly to everyone and have great attention to detail."
- Michael S., Short-Term Rehab Patient
