New Perspective Senior Living | Brookfield sits in Brookfield, Wisconsin, just south of I-94 on Greenfield Avenue between Calhoun and Moreland Roads, and offers a quiet place for seniors away from the city's hustle, with stone accents and rows of cottages giving things a home-like feel, and they have a mix of independent living, assisted living, and memory care options, so some folks can live on their own while others get help as needed, and for those with memory challenges like Alzheimer's, there are two houses with secure patios and fenced backyards for added safety. Residents can choose living spaces like private and shared rooms, studios, one- or two-bedroom apartments, or even cottages, with each staying quite close to common areas filled with big screen TVs, a library corner, game rooms, and a snack shop, and everyone shares indoor and outdoor spaces meant for socializing or activities, with nice landscaping, and they let some pets stay too.
The community plans events like arts and crafts, exercise classes, outings, and devotional activities to keep people socially and spiritually engaged, and there's support for getting to medical appointments and errands through transportation options, so residents can still get out and about. Residents get three meals a day, usually planned to be healthy and made with quality ingredients by chefs, and there's an on-site hair salon, massage therapy, and laundry and housekeeping so things stay comfortable and fresh. Their care teams handle things like medication help, diabetes or incontinence needs, dressing, feeding, bathing, and more, plus special support for people with Parkinson's or dementia, and even assist with things like putting on clothes or feeding by spoon. There's a personal emergency system in the apartments, routine health checks, case management, and home health help available when needed, and advice and planning services can help families figure out what's best for their loved ones.
The facility has 18 assisted living units, and provides all-inclusive rent so most services come under one price, though there's an entry fee, and community rules and state licensing help keep things safe and orderly. The homes are set up to make people feel welcome and part of a group, with encouragement to join household activities, and the memory care units in particular are arranged so residents know where things are and feel secure. Residents get care plans suited to their own needs, which could be minimal or quite hands-on, and the staff tries to promote staying active, comfortable, and as independent as possible while giving support and kindness.
