Welcome to WEL-Life Assisted Living at Alta



Our Community

Snuggled in north-central Iowa’s Buena Vista County, Wel-Life at Alta provides a safe and quiet environment in a single-level dwelling. Small enough to provide one-on-one service, yet large enough to have several common areas and a large variety of activities, our community has the atmosphere, comfort and love of home. In addition to assisted living, we also offer respite care.

Established in 1878, Alta is a small agricultural community that is fast becoming a center for wind energy. Although a bedroom community of Storm Lake, businesses are growing and the city takes pride in housing the Buena Vista County Fair and the Alta Raceway.

Our Approach

At WEL-Life, we understand that moving from a familiar environment to a new community is a big change. We’re here to help you every step of the way. Before you move in, we’ll develop a personalized health and wellness plan that includes a pre-admission appointment with your physician. The plan also includes your individual preferences, lifestyle interests and goals. Once you arrive, our transition team helps you thrive in your new home with services that include:

  • Medication management
  • Assistance with bathing and dressing
  • Wound care
  • Coordinated services with outside healthcare professionals
  • Recreational and social programming
  • Housekeeping, laundry service, and apartment maintenance
  • Transportation coordination
  • Three meals a day

We are committed to help you pursue the activities you love, and support you in a safe and caring environment you’ll be happy to call home.

A choice of apartment styles is available to fit your individual lifestyle:

  • Studio
  • Studio Deluxe
  • One Bedroom
  • Two Bedroom
