About Arbor Springs-West Des Moines

Arbor Springs-West Des Moines, located in West Des Moines, offers assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing services for older adults with a range of care needs. The community's memory care program is grounded in a Montessori-based approach to supporting people living with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. This philosophy centers on person-directed, hands-on engagement that encourages residents to remain as independent as possible, rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all model of care. For families weighing memory care options, this approach may be of particular interest if a loved one benefits from structured, purposeful activity and a sense of continued autonomy. Alongside memory care, the community provides assisted living for residents who need support with daily tasks but wish to maintain an active lifestyle, as well as skilled nursing for those requiring more intensive medical oversight or recovery support. Families considering Arbor Springs-West Des Moines may want to speak directly with the community to learn more about how its Montessori-based methods are applied across different levels of care and what daily life looks like for residents in each setting.

This community does an incredible job creating a welcoming and engaging environment for individuals living with dementia. I’m always impressed by the thought and creativity they put into their activities and the way their team finds meaningful ways to keep residents involved, connected, and enjoying their days. The energy, compassion, and level of engagement their team provides really stands out!

Our mother was at Arbor Springs for 18 months. She started in skilled nursing after a fall and then moved to long term care. We visited several times a week and really got to know the staff and see the amazing care they provided to everyone. We were impressed and comforted that our mom was getting the best care possible. Dementia residents are a challenge and vary widely in their condition and needs. The building is organized into wings and gave it a small community atmosphere. There is a central area for group activities. Support staff (mental engagement activities, housekeeping, maintenance and more) were engaging and very good at their job. Calling residents by name. Administrative and nursing informed us when health changed and what they were doing in response to it. CNAs are the central point of care and their ratio to residents was high. We felt Arbor focussed on quality of care and staffing, the things that most impact residents lives.

Our family can't say enough good things about Arbor Springs. Our mother spent the last six months of her life at Arbor Springs and we feel blessed she was able to spend it with people who truly cared about her. We appreciated the honesty and integrity of the staff. It's hard to lose a parent, especially one struggling with advanced dementia. Arbor Springs made the end of life process so much easier. We would recommend it to anyone. We miss all of our Evergreen friends......

I took a tour of Arbor Springs to place my wife who has late stage Alzheimer’s. I was shown a room that was available & the person giving the tour said my wife should be able to move in immediately. My Hospice nurse called to make arrangements & they were told the room was not available because they were reserving it for a possible rehab patient. After hearing this second hand I met with the administrator, head nurse & person who gave the tour. The administrator said it was a financial decision for the benefit of the facility because they would make more money on a rehab resident than an Alzheimer’s resident. It’s funny they advertise themselves as an award winning facility devoted entirely to the care of persons with Alzheimer’s disease & related dementias. It appears there is more emphasis on corporate greed than award winning Alzheimer’s care.

Our Mother has been a resident for a few months now and we are so pleased with the care she is receiving. The staff and administrators have gone above and beyond all of our expectations and we couldn’t be happier. My Mom is happy, healthy and safe and we highly recommend this facility ❤️Thank you Arbor Springs
