Two Assisted Living Homes, One Specializing in Memory Care


Avonlea Cottage of Quad Cities, located on the south edge of the Quad Cities, was developed as a single community providing both a comfortable home-style assisted living residence and a specially designed cottage for providing specialized care of Alzheimer's and Memory Care residents.

Memory Care at Milan One
Milan One is a unique residence where people in the early to middle stages of Alzheimer's Disease and related memory-impairing diseases can enjoy a renewed sense of normalcy. By focusing on each resident as an individual, we customize a plan of care to balance and promote choices, dignity, assistance and involvement with activities, family and friends.

Our program has been designed to ensure the highest quality of life for the dementia resident through our approach of providing assistance and support in a structured environment. Our residents and their families realize that life after diagnosis is still rich and rewarding.


Avonlea provides Dementia residents with:

• A secure "purpose built" environment
• Specially designed focus centers to promote memory stimulation

• Success-oriented activities
• Personal care assistance that focuses on retaining functional abilities
