    Pleasant facility, caring staff, neglectful

    I appreciated the clean, sunny building, pleasant meals, strong rehab and many genuinely caring nurses/CNAs who made activities enjoyable. However, severe understaffing caused missed/delayed/incorrect medications, long waits for toileting and baths, untrained teenage aides, inconsistent policies and basic hygiene lapses that felt neglectful. I like parts of this place, but I cannot recommend it until staffing and medication management are fixed.

The team includes Registered Nurses, Licensed Practical Nurses, and Certified Nurses Aides, all working under a Medical Director who's on call day and night, and they're always aiming to meet the varied needs of residents and their families. Atlantic Specialty Care's staff use a wide range of therapies and offer both short-term and long-term care with a focus on helping people recover or adjust in a way that works for each individual, and the recreational therapists come up with creative activities to keep life interesting and engaging for everyone involved. The center emphasizes compassionate, individualized care, trying to make sure daily life includes social and educational activities, and they coordinate services like telehealth through Care Finder, though there's no sign of in-person healthcare offerings at this time. Atlantic Specialty Care runs under Care Initiatives, which is Iowa's biggest nonprofit provider for skilled nursing and related services, and they work directly with Health Alliance Medical Plans as well. Residents can get independent living, assisted living, rehabilitation therapy, and specialty care, and while the center can take new patients, for now it isn't accepting new admissions. Staff speak English, and the facility keeps office hours Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM. Atlantic Specialty Care serves Cass County and tries to keep the quality of life as high as possible, even though some specialty details aren't listed.
