Azria Health Park Place stands as a skilled nursing and rehabilitation center located in Des Moines, Iowa, and they focus on helping seniors recover and maintain independence in an environment that feels welcoming and comfortable, with things like a warm entry foyer, inviting lounges, and both hallway and private suites for residents, which I think can make all the difference when someone needs a place to call home while getting care. The facility takes pride in having individualized care plans-whether someone needs long-term care, short-term rehabilitation, memory care, dementia care, home health care, or adult day and respite care, the staff tailors the support for each person. This place offers 24-hour skilled nursing with specialized services from physical, occupational, and speech therapy to things like wound care, post-cardiac care, pulmonary care, orthopedic care, stroke and neurological programs, and prosthetic training, and they've got a therapy gym using equipment like treadmills and stationary bikes to support rehab goals. There are many staff members on the medical team-including a Gerontology Certified Medical Director, Primary Care Physicians, board-certified psychiatrists, dentists, ophthalmologists, and podiatrists-so residents don't need to worry about finding the right kind of doctor. They cover daily needs with beauty and barber services, laundry, housekeeping, and medication management, along with free Wi-Fi, pet visitation, and social activities that encourage residents to connect with each other. There's a dining room, private dining options, and chef-prepared meals, and they try to foster a sense of community through activities and a friendly staff, and even recognize caregivers through the Caregivers of the Month program, which says something about how they value the people who work there. An emergency call system provides peace of mind, too. Azria Health Park Place is both Medicare and Medicaid approved and operates as part of larger health care networks like the Iowa Health Care Association, and the facility accepts residents for tours if families want to see things in person and ask questions.

Caring staff, facilities; management issues
I had a mixed experience. Many staff were caring, attentive and professional, the food, activities and modernized facility were excellent, and communication with family and the nutritionist helped my loved one improve. However, recurring issues - understaffing, spotty cleanliness and urine odor, poor/slow admin and phone communication, and some medication/nutrition mishandling - made care inconsistent. Overall: great people and facilities, but management and staffing problems need urgent fixing.
