Woodslands Senior Park sits at 87 Wisconsin American Dr. in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, and offers a calm, green setting with gardens where residents often see birds, turkeys, deer, and swans. The place has 32 licensed beds in a community-based residential facility, which means it supports seniors who need some help but don't need a nursing home, and the staff can provide support for people living with Alzheimer's, dementia, or terminal illness. Nurses and caregivers stay on site 24 hours a day, helping with bathing, dressing, medication, and daily needs, and they can manage diabetic and incontinence care, two-person transfers, and insulin shots if needed. There's help for those needing memory care, hospice care, respite care, and assisted living.
Residents enjoy three homemade meals daily, and there are meal options for people with special diets, whether it's for diabetes, high blood pressure, allergies, or something else; meals get served in a restaurant-style dining room, and people can eat throughout the day. There's a barber and salon for grooming, laundry and housekeeping, and every room comes furnished with amenities like a telephone. Activities run each day, both on site and off site, such as movie nights, music sessions, arts and crafts, board games, music and pet therapy, walking outside, and trips for errands or doctor appointments. Residents can join devotional activities, use walking paths, read in the library, relax in garden areas, and join events in the community event space. There's 24-hour supervision, a call system for emergencies, and regular health checks, so families know their loved one stays safe.
The staff uses a resident-first approach, planning care to fit each person's own needs, focusing on comfort and quality of life. The community covers assisted living, memory care, and offers apartment-style rooms with open social areas where people can gather. There's transportation to medical appointments, errands, and religious services, and support with moving in, which helps new residents settle easily. Woodslands Senior Park doesn't take Medicare unless certified by CMS. The community's won awards for meals, activities, and a friendly atmosphere. It feels peaceful, with lots of light and nature, and people seem to appreciate the steady routines, the careful planning, and the calm setting. The place isn't wheelchair accessible, but it's designed for non-ambulatory residents who need a bit of extra help, and the staff stays focused on providing steady care and a familiar, home-like environment that puts residents' needs at the center of each day.
