Overview of Terrace Park Sr Living

Terrace Park Sr Living is a 32-bed assisted living facility at 201 SW Lorraine in Leon, Iowa. Managed by Jonda Mericle, the community serves Decatur County under license S0109, which remains active until February 4, 2026. The facility reports a 47% occupancy rate with 15 residents, falling below the Iowa state average of 75.4%. A Walk Score of 53 indicates that the area is moderately walkable for daily needs.

Data from the Iowa Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing highlights a record of exceptional regulatory performance. Since 2005, the facility has recorded only four total deficiencies across nine inspections, an annual average of 0.2 that is 85% lower than the state average. Notably, every inspection conducted between 2012 and September 2024 has resulted in a citations-per-inspection rate of zero. This 13-year streak of clean evaluations includes multiple recertifications and complaint investigations that yielded no regulatory findings.

Daily clinical services at this 25-year-old campus include monthly health checks, 24-hour on-call nursing, and wellness programs. While the recent history is without violation, records from 2011 identified three deficiencies involving delayed tenant evaluations and non-individualized service plans. The community accepts Medicaid and provides essential support including laundry, housekeeping, and transportation within Leon. Monthly pricing is listed at $3,762.50 for a studio and $4,300 for a one-bedroom unit, with a $750 refundable deposit.

The residential environment offers private kitchenettes and bathrooms with three family-style meals served every day. Shared amenities include beautician services and organized social activities designed to support resident engagement. Early monitoring in 2005 noted a single deficiency regarding unsecured medication storage, but this was resolved as the facility established its long-term track record of care consistency. The community currently operates without any history of fines, enforcement actions, or license suspensions.

Older adults should note the facility’s near-flawless inspection record and its standing as one of the state’s highest-performing communities by regulatory metrics. It is recommended to verify the current availability of specific apartment styles and to observe the family-style dining service during an on-site visit. Interested individuals can contact the administrator to discuss Medicaid eligibility and to confirm that the community’s high care standards meet their 2026 residential requirements.
