Position within Iowa
8 citations — more than 74% of the 437 licensed assisted living facilities in Iowa. Compared only within Iowa: a citation from DIAL means what it means in Iowa, and there is no national assisted living record to compare to. Counted over 5 years, which holds two or three routine inspections. How this is calculated
Not in this record
Fire and life safety inspection, severity, the survey report, and enforcement. The fire safety inspection of an Iowa assisted living program is the State Fire Marshal's and is not published; what DIAL itself cites about the building — its structural requirements, the dwelling-unit rules for dementia-specific programs and the fire and safety standards of the Code — is here. DIAL assigns no severity to a citation, and the survey report itself is published only as a scanned image, which is not read. Fines, conditional certifications and other enforcement actions are recorded separately and not republished. Elder group homes and adult day services are other certification types and are not included.
Also on this campus
The same campus holds a Medicare-certified nursing home, with its own federal record on the Life Safety Index: The Gardens Of Cedar Rapids (5710 Dean Road SW). Matched by the street address the two records share. The records are separate and are never added together.
