    Welcome to Glen Oaks Alzheimer’s Special Care!

    Founded in 2007, Glen Oaks Alzheimer’s Special Care Center has been providing the best quality Memory Care services to the residents of Waukee, Urbandale, West Des Moines, Clive, Windsor Heights and Ankeny.

    When the time comes to transition a loved one to a Memory Care community, we know how difficult the decision making process can be with regard to choosing the right one.

    The caring and compassionate team at Glen Oaks Alzheimer’s Special Care Center is here to support families every step of the way. Every one of our residents is treated with the respect and dignity that they deserve. Our at-home atmosphere is very comforting to them and their families.

    You can rest assured that our highly personalized care plans will provide your loved one with the best care possible.

    The Glen Oaks Alzheimer’s Special Care Center facility was opened in December, 2012, and is located in beautiful Urbandale, a suburb of the capital city of Des Moines, the largest city in Iowa. Although Urbandale is of moderate size, the area hosts almost 900 acres of public parks. Glen Oaks Alzheimer’s Special Care Center is designed to perfection in order to embrace each resident’s life experiences, offering an approach that incorporates the individual story into the whole care program. The center offers around-the-clock care and supervision, private and semi-private accommodations, three quality, gourmet meals every day (as well as snacks and special guest meals!), and a vast array of activities. Whether on a field trip, exercising, attending a class, enjoying pet visits, socializing or participating in weekly church services, residents at Glen Oaks are always doing something!
