Continuing Care Retirement Communities Communities in Sheboygan Falls, WI

"I toured Pine Haven Christian Communities Giddings Avenue Campus, and I would highly recommend this. They offer great amenities. However, they were just too far away from any of us that would be visiting my mom. But I think that they'd be worth placing people. It has everything from duplexes to apartments to assistant living and then to memory care. So, it's a community. They have their own hairdresser, too. It's very nice. I thought it was great. I'd go there as a senior citizen myself way before I need any medical help. It's a beautiful apartment with a full kitchen and bedrooms. They're beautiful."

"The negative about Harbor Campus is it's a rehab of an old hospital, so the facility is not as nice. They did a reasonably good job of revamping it. When you go in, you feel like you are going into an old hospital. I don't think you can cover that up. The atmosphere in there was not as nice. One of the things that is a benefit is you didn't have to move into an assisted living room when you need more assistance. They said they could service you in your independent living room for quite a lot of nursing care like doing pills and physical therapy, all that kind of stuff. I think as long as you were mobile enough, if you weren't mostly bedridden kind of thing or anything like that, you didn't have to move out of independent living. All the staff was nice."

"While this facility offers a multitude of services and facilities for its residents, I was overall disappointed in the care that my grandmother received while she stayed there. They do have a vision center, small store, beauty shop, as well as a variety to indoor and outdoor gathering spaces which are very nice for residents, but I believe that the facility is too large. While they are probably following state mandates it seems that there are too many residents per caregivers and the space is too large for many of the people to navigate on their own. The best part about this facility is the small section for sub acute rehabilitation and physical therapy. The therapy was great and really seems to benefit the people that are staying for a short period of time. This area is much smaller and seems to have the same pool of nurses and CNAs most of the time. The dining area is much smaller and residents get more individualized attention during meals. This is not the case in the area of general population at this facility. There the dining areas are large and people wait a very long time for food and often times much longer to get assistance getting back to their rooms. When people need assistance they seem to wait much longer for a response for their room buzzers and there are only buttons available on the beds and in the bathrooms. If they are out of reach it could be over an hour before they are found if something happens. "

"We visited Felician Village and that's an assisted living. The director there was fantastic, really cares about the residents, and he interacts with all the residents by their names. The facility was beautiful. He spent a lot of time explaining things to my mom and me, so I would recommend that facility."

"My parents are moving to New Perspective Senior Living. I like the floor plan, the amount of different activities and the amount of different social gathering places they had in the building. They have a unique floor plan that no one else has, they have a den which fit my parents. They feel better there than any place else. It's in town so it's close to shopping and activities that they would be going to. In a normal world they have a theater, they have a pool, they have a couple of outdoor spaces, and they have 2 or 3 indoor spaces that are social gathering places where they do activities. They have exercises every day. They just had a lot of different things that they can do. I like the décor, the atmosphere but the floor plan was the biggest factor for me."
