What to Consider About Assisted Living in Verona
Verona is a suburb of Madison providing seniors with a vibrant small-town environment that’s a 15-minute drive to the state capitol’s bustling downtown area. The city is home to numerous parks, trails, golf courses and about 13,200 residents, 8.5% of whom are aged 65 and older.
Seniors hoping to stay as active and independent as possible while receiving help with personal care, housekeeping, medication and transportation can choose from three assisted living communities in Verona. Nearby cities offer 12 additional options. Wisconsin’s Department of Health Services licenses these facilities, which are called community-based residential facilities (CBRFs) and residential care apartment complexes (RCACs) in the state.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Verona
- Seniors who thrive on outdoor adventures can appreciate the excellent air quality in Verona’s Dane County. The American Lung Association grades Verona “A” for ozone pollution and “A” for particle pollution.
- Verona offers an array of resources for seniors, including the Verona Senior Center, which provides wellness programs, nutrition services and a variety of case management and support services. A nurse performs weekly drop-in weight, blood pressure and glucose monitoring.
- The Senior Learning Program at UW-Madison Continuing Studies provides learning and enrichment programs for older adults. Those aged 60 and over can audit non-participatory lecture courses for free, attend Wednesday Night at the Lab science lectures and enjoy an award-winning lecture series presented by retired UW faculty.
- The Verona area is home to world-class medical facilities, including University Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- Seniors who feel best when the sun is shining may be disappointed to learn Verona averages only 182 sunny days per year. The city also gets 44 inches of snow and 37 inches of rain on average annually, making it hard to come and go as easily as some seniors like.
- The high cost of housing in Verona is responsible for the city's overall higher cost of living. The good news for seniors on tight budgets is that groceries are 11% less than the national average in Verona, and healthcare costs are 6% lower.
