Living Well with Stonehill - February 2026

Living well with Stonehill

Stonehill Updates

01. Assisi Village State Survey

In December, Assisi Village’s Assisted Living and Assisted Living Memory Care underwent their bi-annual surveys by the Iowa Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing. These surveys ensure that Assisi Village is operating in accordance with regulations and providing an established level of care that is in line with other assisted living and assisted living memory care communities across Iowa. Bi-annual surveys are a requirement for licensure and certification.

During a survey visit, State surveyors review resident care, records and documentation, safety measures, infection control, and regulatory compliance through observation, interviews, and review of documentation and files.

We are proud to report that both surveys went very well. Assisted Living Memory Care had no findings (no documented concerns or recommendations for improvement). Assisted Living had just one very minor concern regarding updating documentation of fall risk in residents’ service plans.

The State surveyor was very complimentary of our community. The team at Assisi Village did, and continues to do an outstanding job of providing resident care and support, meeting regulatory requirements, building a compassionate community, and offering a clean, well-maintained living environment!

02. Nurse Station Renovation

The 1 Southeast nurse station recently received a makeover. The renovation project expanded and reconfigured desk space, added new flooring, and modernized the overall look and feel to align with other areas within the Health Center.

As a household that serves 275 post acute residents over the course of a year, this area gets a lot of traffic. It is important that our nursing team is able to easily access the information and technology they need to complete their work efficiently while also being available to assist family members and visitors. This project was funded by Stonehill operations and donations.

03. New Website Coming

This spring, we will be unveiling a new Stonehill website at www.stonehilldbq.com. With a wide variety of services available to older adults with diverse health and wellness needs at different stages of life, it is important that site visitors can find the information they need quickly and easily. The new site will feature an updated layout, design, and navigation. These improvements will make it easier for individuals to explore our offerings and better understand how Stonehill can support them every step of the way.

Welcome to our new program manager!

Hi, my name is Rachel Finn, and I am the new Program Manager for Assisi Village and the Sales Strategist for Stonehill. I will be leading program initiatives within Assisi Village to ensure exceptional resident care as well as sales strategies to support Assisi Village and Windsor Park.

I attended University of Northern Iowa and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Long Term Care Administration in 2019. Previously, I was the Administrator at a long-term care facility in Cascade, Iowa for about six years. During my time in Cascade, we were awarded with both Bronze and Silver Quality Awards through the American Healthcare Association.

In my free time, my husband and I enjoy traveling and spending time with family, friends, and our three dogs, and I also coach youth and high school volleyball in Cascade. I look forward to contributing to Stonehill’s success and working alongside such a dedicated team.

Assisi Village offers independent living, assisted living, and assisted living memory care. For current openings or waiting lists, please call 563.583.8234 or email rfinn@stonehilldbq.com.

As we welcome a new year, we reflect with gratitude on a wonderfully busy and joyful end to 2025. Residents stayed busy with festive baking, creative crafts, social gatherings, and so much more. We were especially thrilled with the fantastic turnout for our Christmas Fair. Thank you to all who attended and helped make it such a success.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to our generous Christmas donors who ensured all residents received gifts at our Christmas party, our Advent speakers, volunteers, and special music guests. Your time, talent, and kindness mean so much, and the residents truly appreciate all that has been shared with them. February will be a meaningful and active month as we celebrate Valentine’s Day and begin the Lenten season with Ash Wednesday. We invite families to join us for our Valentine’s Sweetheart Social, a lovely opportunity to celebrate love and connection with your loved one.

During Lent, we will offer the Sacrament of Reconciliation and individual confession for residents. Please refer to the February calendar for specific dates. Our chapel remains open to residents and families who wish to spend quiet time praying together, especially throughout the Lenten season. Additional February highlights include Super Bowl Sunday fun and festive Mardi Gras celebrations.

Will March come in like a lamb or a lion? Either way, resi-

dents will be eagerly awaiting the signs of spring! Warmer

days bring opportunities for backyard picnics and enjoying fresh air and sunshine together. We’ll also celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in true festive spirit, welcoming back the McNulty Dance Group. Families are invited to join us for green beer, potato pancakes, lively Irish music, and a cheerful jig or two.

As we conclude the Lenten season and celebrate Easter, residents will enjoy an Easter egg hunt throughout the Health Center. Families are warmly invited to join their loved ones on the hunt for candy-filled eggs. Candy donations are always appreciated.

Later in April, Earth Day will inspire families and volunteers to come together for community-focused activities, including helping clean up our backyard spaces and preparing gardens for planting in the months ahead. We’ll also kick off our popular DQ bus rides and dine-out’s. Families are welcome to meet us at select locations and enjoy a meal with their loved one at some of their favorite restaurants. Please check the monthly calendars for dates and details. You can find the calendar on our website under News & Info. If you have any questions or would like to get involved, feel free to contact Activities at 563557-7181 ext. 1212. We look forward to sharing these special moments with you in the months ahead!

Recent Changes to Stonehill Health Center’s Nursing Home Compare Rating

Stonehill Health Center has maintained a 5-out-of-5-star overall rating on the Nursing Home Compare webpage hosted by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) since 2023, reflecting our strong commitment to quality care and regulatory compliance.

We want to share information regarding a recent change in our overall rating. Stonehill Health Center’s overall CMS Nursing Home Compare rating dropped for a short time to 3 stars, and is currently listed as 4 out of 5 stars. This change is not related to resident care outcomes or survey findings, but is primarily due to a data submission error in our staff Payroll-Based Journal (PBJ) that inaccurately reported our staffing levels to CMS.

As a result of this reporting error, CMS automatically defaulted our Staffing domain rating—one of the three components used to calculate the overall rating—to 1 out of 5 stars, bringing down our overall rating. Our other domains continue to reflect strong performance:

• Health Inspections: 4 out of 5 stars

• Quality Measures: 5 out of 5 stars

We are actively reviewing and correcting the PBJ submission issue to ensure accurate data is reported moving forward. Scores are recalculated on a quarterly basis. Once the correction is processed, we anticipate our overall star rating will better reflect the quality of care and staffing provided at Stonehill. While CMS star ratings are one way to summarize performance data, they do not always fully capture the day-to-day care and commitment of our team—particularly when impacted by a technical reporting issue. Our dedication to excellence, resident safety, and positive outcomes remains unchanged. We appreciate your understanding and continued support as we work through this correction process. Please reach out to Matt Jahn, Administrator, with any questions.

Stonehill Benevolent Foundation

Founded in 1989, the Stonehill Benevolent Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to supporting the mission of Stonehill Communities and the people we serve. The Foundation helps ensure that every resident has access to care and services, regardless of their financial circumstances. Through appeals, campaigns, events, and other giving opportunities, the Foundation connects compassionate individuals and organizations with the meaningful needs of residents on our campus and older adults served through home- and community-based services.

2025 Giving Highlights

Thank you for supporting Donor Impact

Here are a few projects and improvements that were made possible by generous donations in 2025.

Thanks to a grant from Theisen’s, our nurses were able to participate in a special simulated training experience provided by the University of Iowa Mobile Simulation Lab. Nurses worked together to practice scenarios on state-of-the-art manikins that provided realistic feedback and data for decision-making. This was a fantastic way to sharpen our team’s skills and enhance our quality of care!

The cross on top of Windsor Park is now a shining beacon of faith on the historic north end. Its inaugural lighting took place on April 24.

Our on-site CNA class provided instruction for 23 new students in 2025. The CNA class includes both classroom and clinical sessions, where students can learn and practice skills. Students appreciate the convenience of having the course at Stonehill and working alongside their peers and instructor. With donor and grant support, Stonehill funded $50,656 in scholarships for the classes, books and testing as well as tuition and scholarships for continuing education for other members of the Stonehill team.

Active Aging Week in October was a wonderful week-long celebration of living well and staying active with a variety of activities addressing physical, emotional, cognitive, spiritual, financial, and social wellness. Stonehill Benevolent Foundation grant funds and community business sponsorships helped provide cooking classes, a self-defense seminar, a painting class, fitness activities, and more!

Great Give Day funds helped with a renovation in the Health Center backyard, removing the old solid vinyl fence and replacing it with a wrought iron fence. It really opened the space up, improving the view and air flow for residents and families using the outdoor space!

Donor Spotlight

A Guiding Light Among Us

We are honored to recognize donors who make an extraordinary impact on our mission and services. However, not all donors are comfortable with recognition. There are guiding lights among us—individuals whose generosity and compassion quietly shape the communities they care about. Often, their meaningful acts go unrecognized, not because they lack impact, but because humility guides their giving. One such guiding light lives right here on the Stonehill campus.

She and her husband chose Stonehill as their home nearly ten years ago, drawn by the promise of community, care, and peace of mind. Over the years, Stonehill has become much more than a place to live. When asked why she continues to give back, her response reflects both gratitude and purpose. She and her husband built a successful business, and their children have gone on to thrive professionally.

“They don’t need money,” she explains, “They’ve worked hard for what they have.” For her, generosity is not about obligation—it is about sharing blessings where they can make the greatest difference.

Stonehill has given her and her husband a sense of safety, comfort, and belonging. It is a place where friendships have formed, trust has grown, and daily life is enriched by connection and care. These experiences have inspired her ongoing support of the mission and the people of Stonehill Communities.

Her children share this deep appreciation. They, too, have chosen to support Stonehill financially—sometimes in honor of their mother and sometimes in loving memory of their father. Together, as a family, their generosity reflects a shared commitment to giving back and ensuring that others experience the same sense of dignity, security, and community.

This woman has seen needs within our community and found herself in a position to help. Whether offered quietly or in remembrance, their support has touched countless lives and continues to strengthen Stonehill Communities every day. We are profoundly grateful for this family’s enduring generosity, thoughtful stewardship, and the quiet light they shine within our community.

Mission Support Opportunities

Employee Scholarship Fund

In addition to our Spring and Year-End appeals that support benevolent care and other services, one meaningful way to support our mission is by investing in our employees. The Employee Scholarship Fund removes financial barriers and opens doors to education and professional growth for staff across all of our disciplines, including nursing, dining, activities, and social services.

Through this fund, employees are empowered to grow their skills, advance their careers, and continue providing high-quality, person-centered care. Donor support strengthens our workforce, improves retention, and directly enhances the lives of those we serve. In a time when workforce is a struggle in many industries, especially healthcare, Stonehill is committed to recruiting, training, and assisting employees in finding a healthy work-life balance.

In September of 2023, Stonehill set an ambitious goal to raise $500,000 over five years for the Employee Scholarship fund. To date, we have raised $262,666 through private donations and grants.

Donations to the Employee Scholarship Fund can be made at any time throughout the year. We also have some fundraising events planned for this year that will support this important initiative, such as Stonehill Trivia Night, Darkbird Tip Night, and dine-out fundraisers. These events offer a fun and creative way for friends of Stonehill to gather, build community, and support educational opportunities for our employees.

Estate & Legacy Gifts

Planned gifts are a wonderful way to make a lasting impact and support the future of our organization. By including Stonehill Communities in your estate plans, you help ensure long-term sustainability and continued support for residents and employees for generations to come.

Estate gifts may be driven by a connection you or a loved one has with Stonehill Communities, through an admiration you have for our mission, or simply because you want to ensure Stonehill is able to serve future generations. Perhaps, Stonehill has provided excellent care to you or a loved one, is aligned with your values, or you feel it is an impactful organization that positively benefits our community. Legacy gifts are a way to make a larger, lasting impact.

An estate gift can be a key component of your financial strategy. Stonehill, as a nonprofit organization, can be named as a beneficiary designation of your retirement account, life insurance policy, or donor-advised fund that you may have. These gifts often offer tax advantages and allow the donor to make a more significant contribution than they may be able to make during their lifetime. There are financial strategies that can make estate gifts possible while also providing for heirs and loved ones.

Legacy donors also receive unique recognition as part of our Legacy Society and can be recognized upon notice of intent of a gift or upon receipt of a gift.

For more information on giving options, please contact Tracy Connolly, Director of Community Relations and Mission Advancement at 563.690.9660 or tconnolly@stonehilldbq.com.

Volunteering Volunteer Opportunities

What an incredible year. Because of you, we expanded our reach, supported more people, and built a stronger community. Your kindness has been the heartbeat of our work. In 2025, 234 volunteers contributed more than 8,000 hours of service at Stonehill Communities. Thank you for every hour, every effort, and every moment you gave. Here’s to a new year filled with purpose, connection, and continued impact!

Dubuque Days of Caring

Resident Spotlight

Wally and Joyce Hoeper

Wally and Joyce, of Cuba City, WI, have been married for 55 years. They have 4 children, 9 grandchildren, and 3 great-grandchildren. Both held several jobs during their working years including publishing, photography, and videography. Wally retired from the production line at Georgia Pacific and Joyce retired after working as a bank teller.

They were blessed with many years of good health, but in June 2025, Wally experienced a stroke that landed him in the hospital and severely impacted his ability to move, speak, and swallow. When the doctor told them Wally would need long-term care, they began exploring the options in the area.

Their daughters, Lisa and Lori, did some research and visited several facilities, including the Stonehill Health Center. They were impressed by the spaciousness of the rooms and the natural light, and they liked the household layout. One thing that immediately stood out to them about Stonehill was the presence of therapists on staff—physically there each day—providing consistent and coordinated care. They knew Wally would need physical therapy to relearn how to walk, occupational therapy due to the loss of use of his right arm, and speech therapy because his speech had been affected by the stroke. Having all of these therapies on-site, with dedicated professionals, was crucial.

Lisa recounts the day Wally moved in, “The afternoon we arrived at Stonehill, Jonathan, one of the physical therapists, came up to our dad’s room to welcome us and complete an evaluation of his abilities. Watching him work with our dad immediately put us at ease. He was patient, encouraging, and respectful—meeting Dad exactly where he was while also believing in what was possible. In that moment, it became clear that this was not just a place providing care, but a place invested in people.”

Just a few months later, Joyce herself chose Stonehill for a 2-week post-acute stay following a knee replacement. She received physical therapy twice a day during her stay and was well on her way to full rehabilitation by the time she discharged to outpatient therapy.

Joyce visits regularly and joins Wally at Mass in the San Damiano chapel on Sundays. They appreciate the people around them—fellow residents, employees, friends, and family—and are grateful they chose Stonehill.

Spiritual Care

Final Farewell Service Honors Departed Residents

At Stonehill Communities, it is part of our mission to “offer a continuum of quality lifetime care services in a dignified atmosphere” and to uphold our values including Compassion and Reverence. When one of our residents dies, it is important to offer families, their loved ones, and our staff a meaningful opportunity to say goodbye. Just as we care for our residents in life with dignity and respect, so too, do we wish to honor them with dignity and respect after they have died. The Farewell Service is a time-honored tradition at Stonehill. Death is nothing to be ashamed of, but rather a celebration of a life well-lived and of what is to come! The Farewell Quilt (pictured) was sewn by volunteer members of the former Auxiliary group as a visible way to cover the resident in the invisible grace of a goodbye and blessing before leaving Stonehill for the final time. Family members and friends are invited to surround their resident in prayer as a member of the Stonehill staff leads the Farewell Service to ask for God’s loving mercy as the deceased makes their final journey. We also ask for grace and peace to be with those who mourn their loved one’s death. We are called by our faith to walk together in joy and celebration as well as in suffering and sadness…it is our privilege to walk with you.

Outpatient Therapy

Aging in place means continuing to live safely, independently, and comfortably in one’s own home and community as we grow older. For many people, home represents familiarity, dignity, and connection. Successful aging in place is not about doing everything alone; it is about having the right supports, planning ahead, and using tools that promote safety and independence.

Health and wellness are the foundation. Regular physical activity, balanced nutrition, preventive care, and attention to mental health help maintain strength, balance, and cognitive function. Outpatient therapy— physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy—can play an important part in helping you maximize your ability to complete activities of daily living.

A safe and adaptable home environment plays a critical role. Home modifications and adaptive equipment can significantly enhance safety and confidence. Items such as grab bars, raised toilet seats, shower chairs, walkers, reachers, and non-slip mats help reduce fall risk and make daily activities easier. Improved lighting, stair railings, and smart technology—such as medical alert systems or voice-activated devices—can further support independence. Our therapy team is able to recommend home modifications and even come to your home to provide a home safety assessment.

Ultimately, successful aging in place is about choice, preparation, and support. With proactive planning, adaptive devices, and a safe environment older adults can continue to live well in the place they call home.

Wellness

For many of us, New Year’s resolutions mean working to improve our wellness, commonly through exercise or diet. What does a healthy diet look like? It is eating patterns that incorporate all of our main food groups: fruits, vegetables, dairy, proteins, and grains. Let’s see how to build your plate:

Fruits: Focus on eating fruits as close to their natural form as possible. Fresh, frozen or canned are all great options. Eat the rainbow with 2 servings per day.

Vegetables: Continue to focus on eating a variety of different colored vegetables. Fresh, frozen or canned remain your top choices. 3 servings a day is your goal!

Dairy: Yogurt, cheese, milk contribute to a healthy diet and are an excellent source of calcium! Low-fat options are available for those watching their fat consumption. For those with lactose issues, soy is a nice alternative.

Proteins: Poultry, seafood, red meat, beans, legumes, nuts, seeds; oh my! There’s a wide variety of ways to consume protein. Each serving size should be about the size of your palm.

Grains: Look to eat whole grain options in all products. Great options here are cereal, oats, quinoa and whole grain bread.

If you have found that your resolutions have fallen to the wayside already, or you need more guidance and clarification, consider signing up for health coaching! Our ACE certified coach is here to provide guidance, encouragement, and support to help you move forward with intention this year. Here’s to 2026!

31 Mile March

We will once again be raising awareness for veteran suicide this March in partnership with the Veteran’s Freedom Center. Anyone interested is welcome to support this important cause by walking, fundraising, or donating throughout the month of March. Contact the Wellness Center for details on logging miles or fundraising or drop-in to join our 1-mile walk on March 31 at 1pm. We will be walking outdoors, weather permitting. There may also be a group walking indoors on our track, based on participant preference.

Monthly Specials

We want to see more of our community members living well! Utilizing the Wellness Center is a great way to work on wellness at your own pace. To encourage new members, we will be offering monthly specials that can help you get moving and save money.

Windsor Park

Resident Highlight: Gerard “Beanie” Baumhover

Beanie has called Windsor Park home for 7 years and chose it for its North End ties, where he already knew people who could offer support. One of the many reasons Beanie enjoys living at Windsor Park is its strong sense of community. You will always find Beanie hanging out in the front lounge greeting visitors and helping anyone who needs a hand. When asked about a favorite memory about living at Windsor Park, Beanie spoke about becoming a local celebrity when he was interviewed for Windsor Park’s community newsletter 2 years ago.

Before retiring in 2009, Beanie worked as a custodian for the Dubuque County Sheriff’s Department. In his free time, he enjoys going to the casino and chatting with other Windsor Park residents.

When asked, “What’s one word you would use to describe Windsor Park?”

Gerard’s answer was simple: “Wonderful.”

Gerard’s ongoing compassion and community spirit are a prime example of what makes Windsor Park a great place to call home.

We have apartment openings at Windsor Park! Learn more about the apartments, community, and amenities at www.stonehilldbq.com/how-we-care/windsorpark or call 563.582.0646.

Home Care

Home care is a great way to promote independence and facilitate aging in place for older adults while also providing peace of mind for family members.

One family member recently shared her gratitude and appreciation, “Stonehill At Home has provided exceptional care for our parents. The caregivers are consistently kind, patient, and compassionate—qualities that mean more to us than words can express. It brings us great comfort knowing our parents are not only well cared for, but also treated with dignity, respect, and genuine warmth.”

Her parents began utilizing Stonehill At Home in December 2024. Stonehill caregivers provide 6-8 hours of assistance six days a week, helping with personal care, medication reminders, companionship, meal preparation, and light housekeeping and other household tasks.

“We are deeply grateful for the hard work they put in each day and for the compassion they bring to their roles. Choosing Stonehill At Home has been a blessing, and we are thankful for the opportunity it has given our parents to continue living safely and comfortably in their home.”
