Stoney Brook Village is a 72-bed assisted living facility at 705 South Pine Street in West Union, Iowa. Administered by Kathryn Moser, the community serves Fayette County under license S0238, which is valid through August 4, 2026. The facility reports a 50% occupancy rate with 36 residents, which is below the Iowa state average of 75.4%. The location is moderately walkable, holding a Walk Score of 67.
Data from the Iowa Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing highlights a trajectory of consistent regulatory strength. Since 2008, state monitors have recorded nine deficiencies over nine visits, yielding a yearly average of 0.5—a figure 67% lower than the state benchmark. Most recently, the March 2025 recertification concluded with a citations-per-inspection rate of zero. This performance aligns with a long-term trend, as the community achieved perfect compliance in three of its last four primary reviews.
Clinical care at this 21-year-old campus is centered on individualized support and resident-specific activity planning. While the recent state record is favorable, an October 2022 survey noted three administrative gaps concerning the documentation of resident weight loss and unupdated occupancy agreements. Professional services have been delivered without any recorded history of fines or license suspensions. Additionally, every complaint investigation filed against the facility has resulted in an unsubstantiated finding by state inspectors.
The residential atmosphere is supported by a commitment to transparent business practices, as shown by the facility’s A+ Better Business Bureau accreditation. Shared amenities and services are designed for mid-sized community living, focusing on resident engagement and social interaction. Although earlier inspections in 2008 and 2010 cited service plans for missing provider details, subsequent clean surveys in 2012, 2014, 2016, and 2018 suggest these foundational issues were effectively resolved.
Families should consider the community’s two decades of operation and its 67% below-average deficiency rate when evaluating local care options. It is advisable to confirm the current protocol for exception-based nurse’s notes and service plan reviews during a personal tour. Interested individuals may contact the West Union office to discuss current openings and to verify that the community’s established safety record meets their 2026 care expectations.
The facility features 36 spacious apartments with kitchens and unique common areas for residents and guests.
