Heritage Residence is a small senior living community in New Hampton, Iowa, at 2275 South Linn Avenue, where folks find care and support in a place that feels more like a home than a big building, having only room for up to 15 residents which means people can get more attention and help with what they need each day, whether that's bathing, dressing, or making sure they take their medicine like they should. The staff stays on duty 24 hours a day and helps people with daily living tasks as well as medication management, and residents can choose from different care levels like assisted living, memory care for those with Alzheimer's or dementia, skilled nursing for those who need more medical care, independent living with a little more freedom, or even mental health treatment if that's something a person needs later in life, so sometimes you'll see older adults and even younger adults or veterans or folks who might be dealing with PTSD, addiction, or other mental health needs getting help there too.
People living at Heritage Residence get meals made for them with options for special diets like diabetes, extra help for anyone with trouble moving, cable and Wi-Fi in their rooms, and there's a dining room where friends gather for meals, plus outdoor space and gardens for fresh air, walking paths, movie nights, and community activities that keep things lively but welcoming. Heritage Residence promotes a maintenance-free lifestyle, takes care of housekeeping, laundry, move-in help, transportation to appointments or local cafes and churches, and lets folks do their own thing in independent living but keeps support close by if someone needs a little help, and there are always things planned, from activity therapy to social events, so no one has to feel left out or bored. Memory care residents have safe, secure environments with special memory-based programs, activities, and 24-hour oversight, while skilled nursing residents can get wound care, rehab, and round-the-clock medical services if they're facing health challenges.
Heritage Residence supports people with many needs-seniors 65 and older, adults, young adults, veterans, LGBT folks, those with HIV/AIDS or traumatic brain injuries, and anyone who might come by a court referral, with specialized groups for trauma, substance use, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, and more, and the team offers treatments like cognitive behavioral therapy, activity therapy, behavior modification, and psychotropic meds if needed. They have a mental health rehab center on-site, with residential and outpatient services so people can stay as long or as short as they need, plus integrated primary care and psychosocial rehabilitation services for overall well-being, accepting Medicaid, county or government funds, and self-pay, and letting residents who smoke do so only in designated areas. Heritage Residence gets attention for its range of offerings for different people and tries to meet each person at whatever stage or need they have, focusing on health, independence, and support every day.
