Harbour Village East sits about two miles outside Kenosha, Wisconsin, as a small community-based residential facility licensed for eight beds, where folks can choose from independent living, assisted living, memory care, respite care, and rehabilitation. The facility runs as a medium care community and follows guidelines set by Wisconsin's Department of Social Services, focusing on helping seniors who need different levels of assistance, including those who need help with bathing, dressing, eating, toileting, and even getting in and out of the shower or bed, and they do offer specific meal plans if someone has diabetes, high blood pressure, or other health needs. Harbour Village East has a secure setting and uses emergency alert systems, with 24-hour staff supervision, and services for memory care, Alzheimer's support through specialized programs and therapies, and even has features that help residents who can't walk on their own due to non-ambulatory licenses.
There's always something planned, such as daily activities, arranged movie entertainment, fitness and art classes, music therapy, pet therapy, board games, outdoor trips, and regular evening events for the community. Seniors can use amenities like a book room, hot tub, steam room or "health room," yard spaces, a library area, a café, greenhouse, community kitchen, games room, and private dining spaces, and the grounds feature walking paths and gardens. Residents can use transportation services for doctor's appointments, shopping, and spiritual outings, with coordination for these rides made simple, and there's also a traveling hairdresser or barber and a beauty shop on-site, so seniors don't have to worry about getting to the salon. The rooms come in different sizes, with private, semi-private, and studio options, each furnished and set up with telephones. Harbour Village East's dining experience means home-cooked meals with attention to dietary restrictions, and residents can ask for special diet accommodations for allergies, heart health, or diabetes. Housekeeping and laundry services, move-in coordination, and regular health assessments run regularly, and there's medication management, falls management, service within the building, and help with personal and medical routines.
Harbour Village East treats every senior in a family-like way, especially in memory care-caregivers get special training for dementia and Alzheimer's and participate in caring for those who may wander, keeping safety and comfort first. The community welcomes pets and active seniors, and amenities, fitness sections, and social events aim to keep everyone involved and connected, whether someone needs a little or a lot of help. The facility also provides hospice care for end-of-life support and respite care for short-term stays, so family caregivers can get a break, and there's adult daycare for daytime activities and supervision. Skilled nursing, nursing home care with licensed professionals, and home care support are all available on-site, but the facility doesn't accept Medicare because it's not certified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. The location offers peace of mind to families with support in English, and features like emergency response, specialized therapies, and a dementia-friendly menu focus on comprehensive, person-centered care. Harbour Village East's community score sits at 3.8, and the goal remains simple: to provide a safe, caring environment for up to eight seniors, with the right blend of help, comfort, and personal attention.
