Milestone Senior Living Eau Claire sits in a spot where you can easily get out to places like Phoenix Park for some fresh air, and if you need medication or supplies there's the Mayo Clinic Store-Westgate pharmacy close by, as well as Luther Midelfort-Mayo Health System and Pine Grove Family Medicine nearby, which is pretty handy. The community focuses on keeping residents active and comfortable, with a warm environment you notice right away; people often gather for bingo, coffee, and some unique things like the Dare To Dream program, and you'll often find folks in the garden or at different events on the lively activities calendar. The staff, which includes Dementia Care Specialists and a multidisciplinary team, stays around the clock to monitor safety, help with daily needs like bathing, moving around, and taking medicines, or just lending a hand with laundry and chores, making life less stressful. For those who need it, there's both assisted living for daily support and specialized memory care with secure settings, unique programming, and shadow boxes by doors to help memory care residents find their way, so you can feel safer if dementia or Alzheimer's is part of daily life.
Apartment options-studios, one- and two-bedrooms-have wall-to-wall carpet, private or shared baths, air conditioning, kitchenettes, balconies or patios, cable TV, and little touches to make things homelike, and you can bring familiar things from home or even your cat or dog. You'll see handrails, grab bars, and private phone access in living areas, and there's always 24-hour help nearby, so there's peace of mind for everyone, whether in an active or more secure section of the place. There's a focus on offering personalized care plans, adjusting support to meet each resident's health, life history, and interests, and if you need a short-term stay after an illness or surgery, the respite care program provides that additional help until you're ready to go home. Things like made-to-order dining, salon services, transportation for shopping or appointments, physical therapy, religious services, activity groups, veterans' aid, and even financial guidance to help sort out payment and insurance, are part of what brings a little ease to everyday living.
For those dealing with memory loss, you'll find programming and coaching meant to encourage comfort, engagement, and reduce confusion. There are daily activities tailored to individual needs and routines, and staff keeps a close eye to prevent wandering and keep everyone safe. Units have spacious closets, large windows, and open layouts so you can settle in your own way. Maintenance, housekeeping, and laundry are all taken care of, letting folks enjoy their day and keep connections with friends, pets, and family. Milestone Senior Living Eau Claire is a licensed RCAC/CBRF facility that serves seniors through assisted living, memory care, respite care, and support for independent living-it's part of the Milestone Senior Living network, and day by day, staff tries to make sure residents find purpose and joy in a safe, caring environment.
