The Summit of Bettendorf, a WellSpire Community
is a new full continuum of care community serving
the Quad Cities, designed to maximize resident
experience and choice. Focused on wellness, the
community transforms the aging experience-
supporting healthier and more active lifestyles.
The Summit features four levels of independent
living with a fi rst fl oor assisted living household,
along with two 20-person skilled care households
and one 16-person assisted memory support
household in a neighborhood cluster model.
Inclusivity and fl exibility were key drivers in
the design; The Summit pushes innovation with
luxuries like multiple dining service options,
blended care levels, a comprehensive Wellness
Hub, a demonstration-like skilled care kitchen
and golf simulator, all while remaining aff ordable.
The central core includes fi ve dining spaces-
from casual to VIP experiences-and these
are interconnected to the Wellness Hub and
Community Room, with access to the outdoor
terraces, amphitheater, and courtyard. The
rooftop lounge off ers residents a higher vantage
point to gather, with outdoor seating, views of
the neighborhood, and fi replace. Each skilled
care household includes a residential-styled
open kitchen designed to fully support
cooking, serving, and resident participation
in meal prep.
All spaces have a heightened level of design
to create inspiring destinations with maximum
fl exibility. Environments can be activated by
residents, supporting choice and freedom
to create lifestyle experiences on one's own
schedule-like book club, pickleball, or a wine
tasting. By design, wellness can happen anywhere
in the community inside or out, and the design
supports all people, even skilled care residents,
seeking out destinations and activities.
