WEL-Life Assisted Living at Alta

COVID-19 Information

Our skilled nursing facilities, assisted livings and home health agencies are working to reduce the impacts of COVID-19. We share the concerns of our residents and their families, our healthcare workers, and the communities they serve. We are carefully following the recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to help reduce the potential spread of COVID among our staff and residents. We are also monitoring updates and revised recommendations made by the CDC. In addition, we monitor the guidance from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services on this ever-changing situation. The leadership team at each facility is dedicated to doing all they can to minimize the impact of this pandemic in their buildings and communities. We will respond and adapt as the situation evolves.

The goal throughout the pandemic has been infection prevention and control while delivering quality care to the residents we have the privilege to serve.

We are grateful to all who have offered support to our healthcare heroes who are working tirelessly every day to provide quality care with respect, dignity and kindness – while navigating the myriad challenges associated with the COVID-19 crisis.

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.
