Helen's House - Kimberly Blue

Helen's House - Kimberly Blue sits in Kimberly, WI, offering assisted living, memory care, and board and care services all in a small home-like setting, and the place is part of the Helen's House® network, so it follows that comfortable family-style approach, and you'll find that this house is purpose-built for seniors, with a single-level floor plan, no steps at the entryways, and all the wide halls and doors you could need for wheelchairs and walkers. Each home has four large bedrooms, every one with its own ADA-compliant private bathroom and vanity area, and folks can bring their own things to decorate and make the space feel like their own, while the staff, who know how to work with memory loss and aging needs, are both kind and attentive, which means care is more personal here because there's fewer people per house. There's special Alzheimer's/Dementia Care Units and Memory Care set up for security and comfort, with 24-hour care, memory-support programs, and activities to keep the residents engaged, and you'll see that the daily routine can include meals cooked in a real kitchen, cookies baking, and gatherings around the table, because the idea is to make life feel as close to home as possible. There's separate living rooms inside, so people can choose where to spend time, and a big sunny porch and sunroom for outdoor time or chats, plus meals are served in a regular dining room and the days have structure, but not in an institutional way, more like a family might do at home. The home takes in folks who need help with daily living, medication, meals, and personal care, and there's also skilled nursing, wound care, and rehab available for those who need it, and for anyone looking after a loved one at home, the house can provide respite care for short stays when a break is needed. The model here is about keeping things small, quiet, genuine, and providing as much independence and dignity as possible, while surrounding the residents with caring staff and as much of a true home life as they can manage safely.
