Nursing Home Communities in Rib Lake, WI

"Clark County Rehabilitation & Living Center Owen has a lot of different wings. It's a big community. The space was fine. Most people did not have roommates. They had a cafeteria area that was shared until the virus came. When the virus came, they had the meals brought into the units or wings. On their food, some things were low key, like there was no butter and all they have is the vegetable stuff. They had milk, and that's the closest thing you would get to dairy. The staff was good. We used to do more activities before the virus, because we used to do things with other wings. But once the virus came in, they kept them isolated. They were pretty careful not to get it. But the staff was good and they did what they could to get us some exercise. They had some heating issues that were prevalent the whole time I was there, especially in the winter. They were making some changes, some of those changes were never completed, but they were working on it while I was there."

"The Alzheimer's ward at Pine Crest Nursing Home is nothing more than a bed with a toilet you share with four other people. They have been good to my aunt, but I wouldn't put my mom there at this point. It is basically a nursing home. My aunt is very happy there, but she has no memory of me or my mom. She hasn't remembered us for probably 10 years already. They're pretty crowded. They're a locked down facility, which is really a different scenario than what my mom is needing. That part of the facility where my aunt is locked down, so you have to have a password to get into those areas and a password to get out. They have like a little patio. Because of Covid, everything was changed. I couldn't even go up to actually see my aunt, and I have to go through the window. The staff there has always been really wonderful. I didn't like the food when we would go there. It was a poor quality of food. The facilities are very nice and accommodating. In the Alzheimer's unit, they're kind of cooped in. The rest of the facility is very clean."
