Attic Correctional Treatment Center sits in Madison, Wisconsin, and has 19 beds available for assisted living, though it's also set up to meet the needs of those in the correctional system, so there's extra security and trained staff for correctional healthcare and mental health, and you'll see things like pull cords, ADA-compliant bathrooms, and fall prevention in the rooms. Folks live in shared apartments, studio suites, or private bedrooms, and rooms come furnished if needed. The staff tailors care plans, provides incontinence management, spoon feeding, and has folks who know how to care for people with dementia or Parkinson's disease. The facility also handles medication management, helps with bathing and dressing, and checks on residents' health regularly, including programs for those needing physical therapy or massage.
There are special programs in place for those working towards rehabilitation, including substance abuse and mental health treatment, and the overall approach follows trauma-informed and evidence-based treatment, all meant to support positive change and help reduce the chances someone goes back to jail or prison, and they offer community transition and reintegration support after release. Residents can join daily activities such as games, movies in the theatre room, gardening, walks on landscaped trails, and exercise classes, plus there's a snack shop, beauty shop, entertainment and reading rooms, and private dining for special events. The staff organizes birthday parties, cultural events, and even computer classes, offering a bit of community even though the setting's focused on accountability and personal growth.
Meals are provided, including a pureed menu and dementia-friendly options, with help available for dining if needed. A pharmacy is on site, there's help with moving in, parking is available, and the building's secure, with features aimed at keeping people safe. Attic Correctional Treatment Center works under Wisconsin license #390048, and is about 4.5 miles from Monona, WI. Family members can stay in special situations, and residents get the benefit of friendly staff that coordinate doctor visits, provide concierge services, and help with housekeeping, laundry, and transportation. The center is part of a larger network with other locations across Wisconsin and Minnesota, and the mission there is to create a safe environment for personal growth, rehabilitation, and a better chance at staying out of the correctional system in the future.
