Services
From our executive director to our culinary coordinator, from maintenance to activities to fitness coordinators, our staff has an incredible amount of longevity. We think that speaks for itself. Owned by Des Moines-based Newbury Living, we're one of just two senior living properties under the Newbury family.
Join our warm, friendly community, say goodbye to home upkeep, and spend more time doing the things you love. Looking for freedom from upkeep and home maintenance? Tired of cooking, or maybe seeking some new social opportunities? Independent Living at Melrose is the perfect fit for the active senior who doesn't need assistance with activities of daily living, and who is safe on their own.
Perfect for single living or for a couple that doesn't require separate bedrooms or bathrooms. Each of our one-bedroom apartments have a full kitchen, washer and dryer, and a bathroom with walk-in shower. Includes two meals per day, housekeeping, transportation, maintenance, utilities, cable + internet, social activities, Wellness Center with fitness equipment and heated pool, and more.
Assisted Living is about helping you maintain as much independence as possible, while helping with daily tasks like dressing, bathing and medication management. It's as much or as little assistance as you'd like - you're the boss. Private, light-filled apartments ranging from cozy studio sizes to two bedroom suites.
All private, all-inclusive Assisted Living apartments in a quiet Iowa City neighborhood, just minutes from world-class physicians and a vibrant downtown. No levels of care, no a la carte system, no funny business. Easy to budget, easy to understand. All of our bright, well-appointed Assisted Living apartments have big windows for lots of light, a convenient kitchenette for drinks and snacks, and a bathroom with a zero-entry walk-in shower.

Warm, friendly, upscale but still with that sense of homey comfort. Light, bright hallways and apartments, a wide selection of activities, heated pool, underground parking and an exceptional staff. I would absolutely recommend it to friends, family and loved ones.

I have been privileged to work at Melrose since day one. 15 years now.
Getting to know and appreciate each tenant is one of the best parts of my job. They have so much knowledge and great stories.
We work hard to bring great food to the table!

Melrose Meadows most certainly earns 5 stars. The staff are caring ; they are always ready to serve us. Best of all they work well together. The size of the facility lends to compatible friendships. Services are excellent; activities are the very best. As a professional who worked in similar facilities I can attest the excellence of Melrose Meadows.
