Testimonials

"Friendship Haven is a real treasure for Fort Dodge."

"Our family loves the Friendship Haven campus; it feels like college for seniors. Just like college, it’s a place to redefine what fills your heart in a particular phase of life. There are so many services and activities, and the beautiful, well-kept facilities make it easy for residents to adapt because everyone can find something that makes them feel good about their new home. It’s reassuring that our Mom has made so many new friends and reconnected with old friends. We love visiting Mom at Friendship Haven and know we can always find something fun to do with her on campus."
