    Overworked staff, chaotic administration, neglect

    I wanted to like this large, community-loved facility - families rave about it and the dining area is nice - but my experience was worrying: staff are overworked and understaffed, management and oversight are absent, and residents are sometimes neglected. Administration is chaotic (sticky-note fixes, long waitlists, inefficient processes); I can't recommend it until leadership and staffing improve.

    About Grand View Care Center

    Grand View Care Center has served Blair, Wisconsin since 1898, with a long history of caring for seniors and people needing support, and it's set at 620 Grandview Ave., where the main building looks out over quiet streets in a small town. The place runs as a non-profit, and tries to make folks comfortable with private rooms, each one with its own kitchenette, TV, and private bathroom, and they've got newly remodeled spaces so things feel clean and bright. They offer a lot of care options in the same spot, including skilled nursing, home healthcare, rehab like physical therapy and occupational therapy, and even help for people with dementia or memory loss, so families don't have to look far to get different kinds of care when they need it. The center uses an interdisciplinary team, with staff like Deb Brown (MDS Manager), Autumn Schneider (HR), Tina Rudi (Business Office Manager), Chalsie Lunsford (Director of Nursing), and Leah Steele (Administrator), and you'll see them all working together to help residents recover, keep their independence, or stay comfortable as long as possible. The caregivers pay attention to each person's strengths and interests, making plans to help them enjoy daily life, with focus on respect, privacy, and dignity.

    Grand View Care Center includes Grand Avenue Assisted Living right on the same property, offering modern assisted living with separate entrances for privacy so folks feel safe and at ease, and the whole facility has safety features meant for seniors, along with a minimum caregiver-to-senior ratio as the law requires. They invite people to relax in sun porches, family rooms with fireplaces and big TVs, or in a spacious dining room where meals are served, and there's a fitness center, beauty salon, barber shop, activity programs, and special wellness programs like hospice and respite care. Social services, meals, and activities are all offered every day to help people feel part of the community, and they've even got a nursing scholarship program for employees going to nursing school. With specialized behavioral health support and different types of living arrangements, Grand View aims to make a cozy place that feels like home for people who need short rehabilitation, ongoing long-term care, independent or assisted living, or just want a safe and lively spot as they get older. The staff tries to help each resident keep up with their favorite activities and stay connected, and the place lets people keep as much independence as possible, with support when it's needed, and always with a warm, personal touch. You can find more details on their website or through their social media, but the main idea is Grand View Care Center has nearly everything a senior might need, all gathered together in one location that's calm, friendly, and familiar.
