A ConnectedLife
Brio’s building design is a testament to the connected nature of those who live and work here. With all levels of living under one roof — from independent and assisted living to memory support, long-term care, and short-term rehabilitation — residents learn about one another in ways not possible in larger communities.
Friends who save a spot for you in your weekly yoga class. A server who knows your favorite drink. Neighbors who know your name. Brio's close-knit community mirrors that of the most connected neighborhoods in Iowa.
Welcome to Brio
As soon as you step through the doors of Brio of Johnston, you’ll notice we do things a little differently — ‘The Brio Way." We are committed to hospitality, and you'll know how important it is to everyone here by the end of your first visit. We often refer to the "Brio Family," and although that may just sound like something to say, it’s the real deal here.

Care to head into town?
You’re already there! Being nestled in the town of Johnston gives Brio a true neighborhood feel. Our grounds are beautiful and offer everything you need to enjoy a beautiful day outside or a cozy one in. And when you want to venture out, downtown Des Moines is a short 20-minute drive away.
How much does it cost?
We offer both entry-fee and lease models to suit your financial preferences. If you choose a lease model, you’ll simply pay a monthly rental fee for your apartment. Our entry-fee model requires a down payment, which lowers your monthly fee. Choose the best fit for you — your Brio, your way!
