Alder Home sits in Kenosha, Wisconsin, licensed as an Adult Family Home with four beds, and it's a small, supportive place where seniors live together and get daily care, with staff ready 24/7 to help out with bathing, dressing, eating, and moving around, and since there are only four residents, the care's personalized and the caregivers know each person pretty well. They have different types of accommodations, like single bedrooms, studio apartment units, and shared apartments, and rooms are furnished, with telephones and cable or satellite TV included. Alder Home provides several amenities for comfort and convenience, such as a dining room, snack shop, library section, Wi-Fi, housekeeping, laundry and linen service, and walking paths. Residents have access to scheduled daily activities like arts and crafts, movie nights, fitness classes, chapel services, community-sponsored events, and when someone needs help getting to appointments or local events, transportation and parking are available for them and their families.
Healthcare at Alder Home includes a registered nurse who checks up on residents, plus a licensed nurse on call all day and all night, and staff help manage medications, coordinate with doctors, and make health assessments routine. For seniors with Alzheimer's or Parkinson's, Alder Home has specialized caregivers, memory care, secured apartments and grounds, and even feeding help by spoon if it's needed. There's support for special diets, including diabetes-friendly menus, pureed options, and chef-prepared meals, and when someone needs help with incontinence, medication supervision, or extra mobility assistance, those services are offered too.
Residents can enjoy gardens and outdoor space to relax, a spa and beauty salon for massage therapy or haircuts, and a communal kitchen for shared meals or activities, and when it comes to emergencies, there are alert systems and call buttons in the rooms. Alder Home also includes family counseling, ongoing health status checks, and a personal request service to help make life easier, and their concierge service helps residents and families coordinate the move-in and manage any needs that might come up. While Alder Home isn't certified for Medicare, it does accept long-term residents for non-acute care and is inspected by local and state agencies. There's a focus on accessibility, with services ready for anyone who has mobility challenges or other daily needs, and the staff work closely with families to bring peace of mind about their loved one's care, aiming to keep everyone safe and involved in a small, friendly setting where support feels personal and steady.
