Park Vista Retirement Living is an 82-bed senior living community located at 1810 Park Vista Drive in Camanche, Iowa. Administered by Susan Kincaid, the facility is certified as a dementia-specific assisted living program serving Clinton County with a continuum of care that includes independent living, assisted living, and memory care. The campus currently maintains an occupancy rate of approximately 34%, with recent data showing 28 residents in the 82-bed community.
State oversight from the Iowa Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing reveals one of the most favorable compliance records in the region. Regulatory reports through 2026 show an average of 0.5 deficiencies per year, a rate that performs 85% better than the three-year state mean. While the community has recorded a citations-per-inspection rate 28% lower than the Iowa average, a September 2025 recertification survey identified one citation regarding late service plan updates following a resident injury. To date, no federal fines or license restrictions have been issued against the program since its opening in 2018.
Professional support is delivered through a staffing model that provides 24-hour medical monitoring and specialized dementia-focused care. Clinical offerings include medication assistance, physical and occupational therapy, and person-centered memory programming under the “Legacy” and “Closer Care” models. The community utilizes state-of-the-art interactive technology to provide meaningful experiences for memory care residents, though the facility’s Walk Score of 33 indicates a primarily car-dependent location. Quality metrics show that clinical documentation has matured significantly since the initial 2018 licensing cycle.
The campus environment provides a residential atmosphere with restaurant-style dining and a specialized theater room for movies. Shared clinical and social spaces include an on-site beauty salon, a well-stocked library, and secured outdoor patios for memory care residents. Additional features encompass weekly housekeeping, personal laundry services, scheduled local transportation for medical appointments, and pet-friendly apartments ranging from studio to two-bedroom layouts. The facility also coordinates regular social events, live music performances, and daily fitness classes to maintain resident engagement.
Prospective residents and their representatives should evaluate the current staffing stability and market-specific pricing during a facility tour. It is advisable to ask the administrator for specific details on the corrective actions implemented after the 2025 service plan citation and to discuss the community’s occupancy trajectory to ensure the social environment meets the resident’s specific 2026 care goals.
