StoryPoint Riverwoods, located in Des Moines, IA offers assisted living & memory care. Visit Provider Website

The operator says this community was formerly Edencrest at Riverwoods, and it now names four apartment plans running from 350 to 710 square feet.

StoryPoint Riverwoods sits on East Park Avenue in Des Moines, IA, about six miles from MercyOne Des Moines Medical Center. Assisted living and memory care are the two levels the operator lists, and memory care has a single plan, so on that side the decision is about the community rather than the apartment.

Pricing at StoryPoint Riverwoods

StoryPoint Group, who manages StoryPoint Riverwoods, states no monthly rate for assisted living or memory care on its own website, and its plan sheet gives square footage with no rent beside any layout. The local market range for assisted living in the Des Moines area runs $6,512 to $6,914 a month, so that is the bracket to budget against until the community gives you its own. One request through Get Pricing gets you the real figure for the plan and care level you need, so you can see where this community falls inside that range.

Apartment Homes at StoryPoint Riverwoods

The operator names four plans across the two levels:

• The Little Italy, studio, 350 square feet, assisted living
• The Jasper, one bedroom, 470 square feet, assisted living
• The Macrai, two bedroom, 710 square feet, assisted living
• The Little Italy, studio, 350 square feet, memory care

The studio name repeats because the same 350 square foot layout is used on both sides of the building, which is worth knowing if a move from assisted living into memory care is a real possibility later: the room would not change, only the neighborhood around it. The 710 square foot two bedroom is the one that makes this community workable for a couple.

Care and Memory Support at StoryPoint Riverwoods

Assisted living and memory care are both here, and the operator describes memory care as licensed support available 24 hours a day across living, wellness and dining, with what it calls specialized programming. It attaches no program name to that, and it states no staffing ratio. Those two are the specifics that decide whether the place fits your mother or father, so both have to come from the team rather than from a website.

Dining at StoryPoint Riverwoods

Meals run under the operator's Personalized Dining Experience: three chef-prepared meals a day, made by an executive chef who the operator says builds locally sourced options around resident preferences and feedback. Community dining rooms and private kitchen options both exist, so cooking for yourself stays possible rather than becoming something given up in the move.

Around StoryPoint Riverwoods

The address is on East Park Avenue in Des Moines, and the operator puts the community about six miles from MercyOne Des Moines Medical Center. That six-mile figure is the practical one, because it decides whether a specialist your family already sees stays reachable once someone has moved in.
