"I visited Charter Senior Living of Hasmer Lake, and I liked it. However, I didn't see the cafeteria, but I understand that you're assigned a table, and I don't care for that. The gentleman who gave me the tour was very nice. He answered all my questions. Their room size was one of the better ones that I had seen. It was also a very clean facility."

"The rooms are spacious and comfortable. This place feels like home. The staff is amazing. They are very kind and giving. They really know how to interact with the residents and help them. My Mom's favorite activity was bingo but she also enjoyed the outings they went on, the exercise and craft classes and the singing show that they had. They have a beautiful outside garden for the residents to sit in. They can see a lot of wildlife as it overlooks a beautiful pond. When we were looking for a place for our Mom, we found this wonderful place. On our first visit the staff was so wonderful and helpful that I already felt like this place was where Mom should be. They showed us a wonderful room and we meet many of the staff the day of our tour. We looked at a couple more places that day but not one place made us feel like the Waterford made us feel. We called immediately and told her we would take the room. My Mom was only there for about 10 months but in that 10 months I could not have been happier with our decision. The staff is amazing, very caring and knowledgeable. I would Highly recommend The Waterford at Hartford to anyone looking for a great place for their parents! "

"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."

What to Consider About Memory Care in West Bend
Memory care facilities in West Bend fall into the same category as assisted living communities and are regulated by the Division of Quality Assurance, which is part of the Wisconsin Department of Health Services. The department responds to complaints and conducts regular inspections and assessments to ensure facilities follow all regulations correctly.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in West Bend
- West Bend's cost of living is slightly lower than the national average, measuring 93.3 on a 100-point index, with the U.S. average at 100. While most expenses are reasonably low within the city, groceries and transportation are especially affordable, which may allow seniors with early-stage Alzheimer's to continue cooking and visiting local shops and restaurants accompanied by family members.
- Violent crime rates are exceptionally low in West Bend. On a 100-point scale, where the national average measures 22.7, West Bend's violent crime rate is 8.7. Property crime rates are slightly higher than the U.S. average at 38.2 vs. 35.4. However, break-ins and vandalism are unlikely to occur in memory care facilities, given the security measures they employ.
- Health care is 7.8% more expensive in West Bend than the national average, and the city has 95 fewer physicians per 100,000 people. However, the presence of excellent local medical facilities, such as the Froedtert West Bend Hospital and West Bend Health Center, can still ensure seniors have access to quality treatment when needed.
- West Bend is located just a short drive from Milwaukee, which can allow access to a greater variety of health care services, such as specialized surgeries, heart disease treatment and rehabilitation. The proximity to Milwaukee may also make it easier for relatives living there to make day trips and visit more frequently.
- The continental climate of West Bend produces cold winters with 15 more inches of snow per year than the U.S. average and typical low temperatures through January of 10 degrees, much colder than the national average of 21.7 degrees. However, summers are very comfortable in West Bend, with temperatures 4.9 degrees below the U.S. average, and memory care facilities generally have active heating and cooling to improve comfort further.
- West Bend is a member of the AARP Network of Age-Friendly Communities. This shows a commitment from city planners to improve infrastructure and livability for seniors by formulating an action plan based on the eight Domains of Livability.
Memory Care Laws and Regulations in West Bend
West Bend Memory Care Communities must adhere to the comprehensive set of state laws and regulations that all Memory Care Facilities in Wisconsin are required to follow. Visit our Memory Care in Wisconsin page for more information about these laws.
