i can't believe there are only two reviews and that both of them are negative for this place. let…read moreme tell you something: i worked as both a public defender and then a sole practitioner in polk county from 1994 until i retired a couple years ago, and was a public defender for 12 years before that elsewhere in iowa. i've dealt with many many substance abuse evaluation and treatment facilities, and never ONCE did i find one that came even close to providing the quality of care and scrutiny that Alt Int provides. this place is NOT one of those rubber stamp "yup, you need treatment" places that soaks you for all you've got and then some. Vic Cowles and his team actually give a crap about each individual and treat you as such. in all my years of referring clients and friends to this place, not one time - Not Once - has anyone given me negative feedback about their experiences...and trust me, i ask. so disregard those two negative nellies, i'm giving you the straight poop, which is what i did my entire legal career. why would i stop now?

Happy at Home should be your first call!!!…read more Sydney and Emily are the ONLY reason I was able to move back to my home in Los Angeles vs. continuing to live with my dad in Iowa. They are truly the biggest blessing. I will happily speak with anyone about how great the services have been and provide a glowing recommendation. They have both done so much more than occupational therapy for my dad. Below is a list of just a FEW of the many things they have done for us: - Occupational therapy - Physical therapy - the best physical therapist we have had by far (Kassi) - Connected us to virtual therapist - Connected us with an extremely affordable elder care attorney - Referred us to payees/money management assistance - Speech pathology - Connected us with other elder care management resources that would assist me as a caretaker - Signed my dad up and got him approved for a grant to upgrade home like making bathtub ADA compliant - Connected us with PACE which is like Elderly Care Waiver but they also manage doctor's appointments - Joined my dad on doctor's appointments and gave me updates - Home assessment and recommendations/help making mobility improvements - Christmas gift program where volunteers "adopt a senior" and provided amazing gifts two years in a row - Free webinars from resources like elder care attorneys about Power of Attorneys and things like that. - Connected us with OT resources and free support for my nephew who has autism. Then they went above and beyond even more!! I was asking them to do things that I knew wouldn't be covered by insurance as occupational therapy. Basically I needed a stand-in for me, someone who would cover the things that fall through the cracks and aren't covered by a specific home health provider. They created a private pay program and allowed me to request help on random things that did not fall under the OT/insurance umbrella. For example, they joined him on a succession planning meeting with an extended family member so that he had support. They helped fix Alexa gadgets and let me know when the A/C wasn't working. Honestly I should have had to pay Sydney for being MY mental health therapist as she was such a moral support when I was overwhelmed. Sydney is like the daughter I wish I could be haha. Emily is her protégé and I love them both. Soooo many other things that I will probably need to write another review as I think of them. We used SO many CDAC and home health companies over the last 2 years, Happy at Home is by far the best and we use them consistently even while we had to use the other companies to supplement services for whatever reason. I definitely preferred all the partners contracted through Happy at Home. We are now ready for assisted living and I hope we can continue to keep Happy at Home involved in our care plan. I feel like they are literally the only people who have been this helpful and connected and provided continuity. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Happy At Home Consultant came to my home late November 2022. I had been experiencing falls. Karen…read moreSpeicher came to access what what would make my home safer. I went into my bedroom to get something & Karen followed me in. I told her my bedroom is a private area. The 2nd time Karen came she stood at me bedroom doorway & said "I see you made your bed today." I again told her my bedroom was private & I closed the door. Without permission from me she went into my bathroom & was laying down sticky-strips in my tub. I'm not a dirty person by any means but I would have liked to wiped down the tub first. The strips a few strands of hair under them, that I couldn't get out. Karen didn't wash her hands first so the strips were dirty. Karen put in the handle bar toilet helper & it was wobbling, loose & dangerous. It doesn't look that way, in the picture they used on their website, with out my permission. Karen came over without an appointment at 4pm wanting to come in & help me. I told her no. After I told them, I did my best with her but vwe just didn't suit each other. Sydney came over with the Nurse Linda. We talked about my needs & the Nurse Linda & I made an appointment. Linda contacted me about a week later to set up an appt with me.I said we made an appt. & I told her the date & time. I also said, I like my appts in the late mornings as I get high anxiety waiting until later. Linds said she gets high anxiety when she has to change people's appts. We made an appt. When she & Sydney were in my home. 2 days later I recieve a text from Linda (not for me) she was asking someone "Is Catherine that crazy lady in the apartments?" Even if Linds wasn't referring to me, she was still calling a client "crazy". This is unprofessional at the least. Linda is a registered nurse & should not be working with the public. Especially with older people like me, who can have anxiety or dementia problems. Well, long story long. Don't put your care or a relatives care in the hands of Happy At Home Consulting. I won't. Thank you for listening. I would put Negative ZERO Stars but, you have to give at least 1.

I walked in on a Monday at 5:30 PM (They are open until 8:00 PM that day). There was only ONE…read moreperson in the waiting room. Took forever for that person to be seen. Don't these places usually have more than one service provider? Then, after that person finally got seen, it seemed to take forever for ME to get seen. Meanwhile, five more people walked in after me. Hope it didn't take forever for the five more people. But, once I got seen, the Physicians Assistant who saw me was quick AND thorough. I had an ear problem. Got it diagnosed quickly. The Physicians Assistant was very friendly and nice. She also was able to "shoot" a prescription to Wal-Mart and I was able to get it. One thing I was surprised at, they didn't require you to fill out a 10 page thingie on health history. Ok, whatever. They were also ok with me not providing my SS number for my claims, it's not required. The seemingly long wait time irked me when there was only ONE other person at the time I went in, but I would go here again if needed.

Nurses, therapists, nurse aids and all of the staff were super friendly and accommodating. The therapists were all very knowledgeable, attractive and motivating. I had a poor attitude about my chances for being mobile. The way they work you, teach you and become your friends is outstanding. They helped me to change my outlook, work hard and do extra when possible. I would recommend Harmony 100% for anyone in need of skilled nursing care, physical and occupational therapy, residence care or any other available services. Every patient has their own guardian angel to advocate for them.
