Mostly long-term care residents
Most residents stay for extended periods and receive ongoing daily care.
Most new residents arrive under Medicaid (58% of admissions), and a typical Medicaid stay runs around 10 - 11 months.
Jackson Ridge Healthcare Center runs a 75-bed medical campus on Wesley Drive in Maquoketa, Iowa. The property accommodates both private and semi-private room setups, maintaining an average occupancy rate of around 79 percent. Families can manage local care bills using private funds alongside standard Medicare or state Medicaid authorizations, which supports a balanced census of short-term rehab admissions and extended long-term placements.
The clinical staff provides an average of 4 hours and 16 minutes of direct care per resident each day. Registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing aides coordinate this 24-hour floor schedule to oversee specialized memory care wings, routine physical therapies, and scheduled respite care stays. Local appointment transit is handled directly by the building’s logistics team, while the surrounding town neighborhood logs a walkability score of 76 out of 100, letting visitors reach standard retail stops on foot.
Inspectors noted corrections were needed across food service lines, basic infection control guidelines, and clinical chart documentation. Management successfully addressed these points through formal improvement plans that were officially reviewed and accepted by state health regulators.
Interested individuals can call the main reception desk to verify current room availability, request an outline of the daily respite schedules, or arrange a personal walkthrough of the lounges and memory care units.
Jackson Ridge Healthcare Center is administered by Amanda Carr.
In Iowa, the Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing conducts unannounced health and safety surveys to monitor compliance and protect residents in long-term care settings.
