Parkridge Specialty Care

The facility provides 24/7 care to up to 90 residents from Pleasant Hill and surrounding communities, with a focus on active and engaging quality of life through daily programming, social and educational activities, and related services. Nursing roles include clinical positions such as MDS Coordinator (RN), which involves completing accurate MDS assessments, collaborating with interdisciplinary teams on individualized care plans, and ensuring compliance with CMS, state, and federal long-term care regulations. The employer's own job descriptions highlight a Bronze Quality Award, a 4-star Quality Measure Rating, and excellent Annual State Survey results consistently below state and national averages. However, Medicare's Care Compare assigns an overall facility rating of 'Much below average' (1 out of 5 stars), with health inspections rated much below average, while staffing and quality measures are rated as average. Nurses considering employment should be aware of this discrepancy and investigate current conditions. No employer-specific employee review platforms (Glassdoor, Indeed) returned data for Parkridge Specialty Care specifically; results from similarly named but unrelated entities were found but do not apply to this facility.

As part of Care Initiatives, Parkridge Specialty Care emphasizes compassionate care and making a meaningful impact on residents' lives during their healthcare journey. The organization describes itself as quality-focused and seeks dedicated, empathetic caregivers to join its team across more than 40 Iowa skilled nursing communities.
