Answer a few questions to get personalized results

Who are you searching for?

Residential care homes in Waterloo may appeal to seniors who value smaller, more close-knit communities and many opportunities for socialization. Waterloo care homes typically take in fewer residents, meaning older adults know each resident in the home and develop strong friendships.

Older-adult care homes vary more than other options for senior living in Waterloo, so families can choose from a wide range of prices, amenities, and services. A Place for Mom will work with you to understand the cost of care homes. From there, we’ll help you find the right fit, whether you’re staying on a budget or searching for luxury retirement communities.

4 / 5.0

My mother has been a resident since 2016 following her diagnosis. [Name removed] is a very capable owner/operator. The setting is scenic and quiet. The walk to and down the ramp is enjoyable most days, but not on a winter day when the wind blows. Meals/menu has all those comfort foods we grew up on....

3.8 / 5.0

Countryside provides a warm home-like environment for its' residents. All the staff that I met and spoke with were friendly and really seemed to care. It can be difficult finding respite care that you can reserve well in advance, but Countryside is always accommodating.

What are care homes?

Residential care homes are houses in residential neighborhoods that are equipped, adapted, and staffed to care for a small number of residents, usually between two and 10.

Although residential care homes vary significantly depending on the community, services usually include:

  • Help with personal care
  • Medication management
  • Mobility assistance
  • Nutritious meals
  • Social activities and outings
  • Housekeeping
  • Laundry
