Country Manor Memory Care sits in a quiet Davenport neighborhood, right near a park and walking trails, and serves only seniors with Alzheimer's disease or dementia in a single-story, purpose-built building. The place tailors all services for people with memory issues, from the way the apartments have bathrooms, closets, air conditioning, window coverings, and emergency call systems, to the whole property being secured with alarms at doors and safety pendants for each resident, so those who might wander or show exit-seeking behaviors stay safe. The apartments come as private or companion studios, and if families want to bring in favorite decorations, they can make the rooms feel just like home.
The staff is on hand 24 hours a day and includes nurses and special caregivers who know how to help with things like bathing, dressing, grooming, managing medicine, and providing reminders for tasks. Every resident gets a unique care plan, reviewed often and made by a registered nurse before move-in, plus they monitor that plan as needs change, so folks can stay at Country Manor as care needs grow. Staff handle mobility needs-wheelchairs, assisted transfers, even mechanical lifts. Services cover light to medium level of help, managing incontinence, and can include blood sugar checks and injecting insulin but only as the plan allows. The staff is trained to help those who act out or are aggressive, those who might try to leave, or even folks who need specialized support for tricky behaviors.
Country Manor Memory Care follows the Montessori approach, aiming to give residents routines and activities that fit their abilities and help everyone feel like they belong. Activities run through the week and include devotions, art, exercise, Wii bowling, trivia, field trips, live music, and social groups, all picked to engage the senses and keep minds active. There's a full-time activity director, as well as group trips outside the community. Family and friends are welcome to join, and devotional services happen onsite.
Meals come freshly made three times a day and are served in the community dining room with snacks in between, and there's also "anytime dining" and room service if someone prefers eating at another time or place. Kitchen staff can meet special diets, and there are private dining rooms for visiting families. There's a no smoking policy indoors, but outdoor smoking is allowed. The fee to join is $2000 plus monthly costs, with extra for optional services like transportation.
The community is pet-friendly, accepting cats and dogs depending on the pet policy, though residents need to check for any special rules on pet care. Common areas inside and out offer places to visit or relax, and there are courtyards, walking paths, and spaces to enjoy fresh air. Amenities include WiFi, cable TV, laundry and housekeeping, a beautician and barber, emergency maintenance, window coverings, senior fitness programs, and easy-to-navigate showers and doors for wheelchair users.
Short-term respite care-called "Graceful Stays"-is available for those who just need to stay a few days or weeks. Country Manor also has hospice care and therapy specialists, including physical, speech, and occupational therapy. The community has earned a 2025 Bronze - Commitment to Quality Award from the American Health Care Association and the National Center for Assisted Living. It's licensed under Iowa State License S0017 and stands as Davenport's only free-standing memory care facility designed to feel like a true home for seniors with Alzheimer's, dementia, or memory loss.
