Apple Way Adult Family Home sits in Independence, Wisconsin, where seniors can find both safety and comfort with some practical features that truly stand out, like grab bars in the shared living quarters and safe apartment designs, plus private ADA compliant bathrooms that help make things easier for residents needing a little more help getting around, and there are only four assisted living units so things stay small and familiar and you're unlikely to feel lost. With staff available and on-call around the clock, residents get 24-hour supervision, emergency buttons, and ready assistance always within arm's reach, which matters a lot if someone needs help quickly. Residents can choose between different living arrangements, with options that include private furnished suites, shared rooms, and even kitchenettes, all maintenance-free, meaning no worries about cooking, cleaning, or home upkeep, since the housekeeping and linen services, meal preparation, and even laundry are provided.
The community provides both residential care and board and care services, with a special focus on memory care, offering help with dementia, Alzheimer's, diabetes management, fall prevention, as well as medication management and administration, continence care, and mobility assistance, so folks who need help with dressing, bathing, and getting around can count on support. Healthcare professionals work to tailor occupational therapy and coordinate with outside providers if needed, making sure care fits the resident's needs. The meals here use organic food and ingredients, prepared fresh every day, and special diets-like diabetes-friendly and allergy-sensitive options-are available, plus all-day snacks for those who get hungry between scheduled meals in the resident dining hall.
Residents find a sense of community in the shared spaces, with amenities like a library and reading section, computer classes, arts and crafts, bingo, cards, movie nights, and birthday parties, and they often walk the outdoor garden paths or join activities that fill the calendar, so daily life has some variety and chances for friendship. Technology like cable TV, WiFi, and telephones in every room help residents keep in touch and stay entertained, and air-conditioning keeps things comfortable. There's visitor parking and transportation to doctor's appointments or outings, so coming and going isn't a challenge, and the facility stays devoted to high standards of safety and cleanliness.
