Overview of Vintage Hills of Indianola

Administered by Jeremy Prior, Vintage Hills of Indianola is an assisted living community in Indianola, Iowa. The home about 1.6 miles from the city center serves residents seeking assisted living, memory care, or respite care. Operating for 16 years, the mid-sized, 90-bed community currently has a 46 percent occupancy rate.

The neighborhood surrounding Vintage Hills is car-dependent, with a Walk Score of 15, so a car is required for most errands. This setting fits occupants and families who prefer a more tranquil and residential part of town instead of a walkable urban area. Pets are welcome here, which can be a crucial consideration for residents wanting to bring their companions with them.

The Iowa Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing’s state inspections have documented isolated concerns involving staff documentation and medication administration practices over the facility’s operating history. The latest inspection found no regulatory insufficiencies, reflecting the home’s compliance with state safety standards.
