Overview of Rock Creek Senior Living
Rock Creek Senior Living is a 170-unit multi-tier community at 3602 NW 5th Street in Ankeny, Iowa. Owned by Arrow Senior Living, the campus offers independent living, assisted living, and memory care, with starting rates for assisted living near $3,465 per month. The facility is approximately 2.6 miles from central Ankeny and focuses on an active residential lifestyle.
The community holds an active state license and is certified as an Assisted Living Program for People with Dementia. State oversight for 2026 indicates the facility maintains its standing with zero active health citations for infection control during the most recent monitoring cycle. While the campus is not Medicare or Medicaid certified for skilled nursing, it carries a 2026 “Best Assisted Living” designation from U.S. News & World Report based on resident and family satisfaction surveys.
The 24-hour staffing model supports multiple tiers of care, allowing residents to transition between levels as medical needs change. Specific services for memory care include sensory-based programs and specialized support for both mild and advanced cognitive impairment. While the facility provides transportation, the immediate surroundings are primarily car-dependent with a Walk Score of 13. Professional nursing oversight is available for personal care, though the model emphasizes social engagement and safety over intensive clinical intervention.
The campus environment provides various shared social spaces, including a wellness center, a movie theater, and a dining room serving international cuisine. Residents have access to weekly housekeeping and personal laundry services alongside dedicated concierge assistance and scheduled event programming. Outdoor walking trails and pet-friendly living options are available, with nutritional management providing specialized low-sodium and pureed meal options.

Iowa Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including Iowa) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community.
