Assisted Living Communities in West Bend, WI

"We are choosing Ellen's Home of Germantown South for my husband because it seemed like a good fit for him. It was more sparsely populated and there was more room for him since people weren't right on top of each other. The place was very neat and the rooms were nice-sized. They had a bird aviary there, which was very interesting. It just looked like things were under control. No locks on the door, which was something different but necessary for some. The staff was very helpful and informative. Overall, it was a very good tour experience. It just felt right."

"The care is great because the caregivers are great. There are tons of them that have been there forever. The food is GREAT considering their cooking for 46 people. What I loved to see was how many family members dine with their loved one daily! The staff at Riverview would always make whatever special accommodations we asked for. My wife still visits to help with activities-we feel like family there. "

"willow brook has the most amazing staff and wonderful fun activities for everyone! my mom loves the art and of course happy hour on Thursdays! the apartments are beautiful and the facility is extremely clean and well kept."

"We are residents of StoryPoint Mequon. We have found the staff to be courteous and accommodating. The residents tend to look out for one another and there's a sense of community here. The residents are made to feel welcome and valued. There is an effort by the staff to learn and call residents by their names, which is very helpful. The public areas are kept clean and comfortable. The menu items are varied and tasty. My husband came here under respite and I came along with him. He is the one who is actually in need of the services. We also contract for nursing services and the staff is housed right here in the building. In addition to just living here, the main thing is that he gets the care he needs, and that's 24 hours. Right now, we are in a one-bedroom apartment, and because we are going to be staying beyond the respite period, we are taking a two-bedroom apartment. We will be moving there within the next few days. The main lobby does have a coffee bar and that has coffee, snacks, and fresh fruit throughout the day. In addition to the dining room, there is a private dining room which families can use if they happen to have guests coming in. There is an arts and crafts room there. This is all on the lower level. On the second floor, there is a community room and various events are held there. We go to the Bible study, which is held there, they do bingo there, and other types of activities. There is a library also on the second floor. Throughout the building, there are small sitting areas where there are chairs and just comfortable areas for people to sit or maybe visit with a guest. There is a gym on the lower level, so there are opportunities for people to engage in activities throughout the day and throughout the week, and there is a printed schedule for the month and residents can then choose what appeals to them. I would like to see a little bit more discretion and better modulated voices when staff are engaging with one another and certainly when they are speaking with clients in public places. Those would be my comments with regard to areas of improvement."

"We looked at the independent living of LakeHouse Menomonee. We saw some of the residents and met with some of the staff and had nice things to see. We did not try their food, but we walked past their dining room. Everything looked very good. The staff was very friendly and open. I think they had a nice rapport with the residents there too."

"My mother-in-law was a resident of The Arboretum Senior Living. It was a very nice community for her. There were activities for her to go to, and she went to the dining hall for dinner once a day, so she had interaction with other people. The staff was very nice and helpful, and the facilities were well-kept and clean. They would sometimes have groups come in to sing or play music, and the food was very good."

"I toured this community for my mom. The apartments are spacious and have a full kitchen. Staff was very knowledgeable and you could tell they cared about the residents. They also offer a pendant program for residents which is a call light button. They have a fun activities calendar with at least 4 activities a day. The apartments come with Wi-Fi, cable and bathrooms have a walk in shower, apartment controlled heating and cooling. The apartments are big. They offer housekeeping, laundry services, 3 meals a day. They did invite both myself and mom in for lunch and a tour. Also, transportation for any appointments that mom has. A plus of this community is the is right off the expressway and close to hospitals, drs offices and shopping area."

"I toured Brookdale Sussex. I liked that it was intimate. I like the floor plan where the residents are close to everything, close to the staff, and close to the dining, and living rooms. Everything's very close and the staff can check on them throughout the day. They're not far away. They're close to all the activities, to all the help they need, and the meals. I just thought the whole setup was very positive. The staff is friendly. The director, Jessica, was very informative, very helpful, and answered all my questions. She is very capable and cares about the people there. They have a lovely porch on the front and then at the back, they had another nice porch, so people could, if they wished to be outside in the warmer weather, it would be nice because then they aren't stuck inside."

"Cedar Grove Gardens I is the perfect fit for my mother that's why we moved her there. They are understaffed, but she loves their food. I think they could have more activities for them. In terms of amenities, they have everything that she needs. They have an activities room, they have a big dining area, a living room with TVs, and they have an outdoor place to have activities outside. They keep it very clean."
