Overview of Trinity Center at Luther Park

Trinity Center at Luther Park operates out of Des Moines, IA, with memory care, independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, and nursing home care on the license.

Skilled nursing marks the tier where a licensed nurse has to do the work. With five care levels on one license, a growing need does not send anybody at Trinity Center at Luther Park looking elsewhere.

Across 120 beds, each resident’s daily nursing care works out to 4 hours and 40 minutes. A family has more than one route to settling the bill. There’s Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.

A Walk Score of 91 makes the area a walker’s paradise, and daily errands require no car at all. Rehabilitation Services are named, and Religious Services with them. Christian Values and Spiritual Support are amenities named here.

Pets are allowed, and the administrator here is Rick Colby.
