Mandrake sits as a small assisted living community for up to three residents, and sometimes that's all anybody needs, just a quieter space with fewer people, and you'll notice it's in a single-family home built in 1975 with wood siding, an asphalt roof, a large lot out back, a porch that slopes out toward the yard, and it's approved for senior care and licensed in Wisconsin, so everything's in order for folks who need help each day. The place has three bedrooms, with a master suite and two more large rooms, and offers both private and shared living spaces, plus each room and the living room have their own air conditioning units, which can be nice during the warmer months, and there's central gas heating too. Residents use fully furnished apartments, though you can bring your own things if you want since you can rent furnished or unfurnished-the bathrooms are private, there are kitchenettes, and the laundry's right in the unit, with a washer, dryer, and new refrigerator and stove for those who want to do a little for themselves. Mandrake has a detached garage for two vehicles, a full and partially finished basement, a fireplace, and wheelchairs can get in and around easily, both inside and outside. Safety runs throughout, with an emergency alert system, keypad access for entry, and 24-hour supervision and call system within reach.
The care includes help with bathing, dressing, transfers, and getting around, plus medication management and special diets such as diabetes-friendly and allergy-sensitive options, and when it comes to food, meals use organic ingredients and are served in a dining room or all-day style, depending on what the resident wants, and they cater to various dietary needs. Social activities happen daily, from movie nights to events the community sponsors-designed to bring folks together, even just for a spell-and you'll find the gardens, outdoor spaces, and walking paths are meant for peaceful strolls or a sit to enjoy the quiet, since there's a community-managed garden too. The place provides transportation for doctor appointments, regular housekeeping and linen service, and can assist with moving in. Staff speak English, pets like cats and dogs are accepted, and there's cable TV, internet, and telephone service set up. Residents live maintenance-free, with all the basic support needed, care coordination with health providers, non-ambulatory support, help with daily tasks, and tailored options for specialized needs, all in a well-structured but calm and comfortable setting. The property has both private suites and shared rooms, appliances, a balcony, backyard access, and all the essential features for older adults needing support, with the name Mandrake being how folks refer to it. Utilities, snow removal, and lawn mowing can be arranged by tenants if renting, but the overall aim seems to be to give seniors some flexibility while making sure assistance and comfort are there.
