    Clean, caring staff; highly recommend

    I placed my grandmother here and have been very pleased - the facility is clean, organized and home-like, with good food and activities. The staff are compassionate, professional and attentive, communicate responsively, and truly treat residents like family; manager Katrina is especially caring and on top of things. I highly recommend this close-to-home community.

    Summary of reviews

    The reviews portray a facility with consistently positive strengths in direct care, environment, dining, and programming. Care quality is described as compassionate and attentive, with staff characterized as well trained and professional. Reviewers emphasize individualized attention and active care coordination, suggesting reliable assistance with daily needs and follow-through across care tasks.

    Staff and culture receive frequent praise: team members are called friendly, dedicated, and supportive of residents. Management, in particular a manager named Katrina, is repeatedly noted as handsโ€‘on, accessible, and proactive; reviewers describe responsive communication, helpful coordination with families, and a manager who supports both residents and staff. These comments indicate an organizational focus on resident-centered oversight and staff support.

    Dining and activities are also strengths. Multiple reviews highlight high-quality, varied menus and an overall positive dining experience. The activities program is described as useful and engaging, contributing to a home-like, welcoming atmosphere. The facility itself is consistently described as clean, organized, and well maintained, reinforcing the impression of a safe and comfortable residential environment.

    Notable patterns and caveats: the overall sentiment is strongly positive, but at least one reviewer described the facility as poorly run and would not recommend it. That outlier suggests there can be variability in individual experiences. The most reasonable abstractions from the feedback are occasional inconsistencies in resident experience, possible variability in management effectiveness across situations or shifts, and isolated concerns about staff conduct or interpersonal tone. These are presented as operational traits to explore rather than documented incidents.

    For prospective residents and families: the facility appears to offer compassionate care, strong management presence, good dining, and active programming within a clean, home-like setting. Visitors should observe day-to-day interactions, ask about staffing patterns and shift supervision, and discuss recent family feedback with management to assess whether the facilityโ€™s strengths are consistent with their expectations and the level of oversight they require.

    About So Close to Home

    So Close To Home is a small assisted living community about 7.5 miles outside Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, and you'll find it in Marshall, WI, serving up to 9 residents in a setting that feels more like a home than a big facility, and people here get staff onsite all day and night, with care for assisted living, memory care, and board and care, including services for those with Alzheimer's, dementia, and even major behavior issues, thanks to a secure memory care area in its own building and a wandering alert system that uses bracelets to help keep people safe if they try to leave. Here, staff help with things like taking medicine, bathing, dressing, grooming, and using a wheelchair or moving around, so people who need stand-by help or even one or two-person transfers can get it, and the staff also manage health care, coordinate with doctors, and help with things like diabetes or incontinence, so seniors with higher medical needs can stay even as their needs increase. Residents get three homemade meals a day, with all-day dining, and the kitchen staff can change things up for folks who have allergies, diabetes, or special diets, and people don't have to worry about cleaning or laundry because housekeeping and dry cleaning are both included, and rooms come furnished, with phones, wheelchair accessible showers, and different studio layouts so folks can have some privacy and comfort.

    The community gives rides for appointments, shopping, and outings, and there's parking if folks still drive, and there's even outdoor smoking in certain spots. People find plenty to do with planned activity programs, group and quiet activities, fitness and music, book rooms, gardens, walking paths, devotional services onsite and offsite, movie nights, and social events, so seniors who like to stay active or engaged have plenty of choices, and folks can also have visiting beauticians or use the hairdresser and hot tub or sauna room. Staff pay special attention to individualized care, setting up care plans to fit what each person needs or wants, and the community aims to help residents keep feeling like themselves and find a sense of belonging, which shows up in the way group activities, music therapy, pet therapy, and nature time are part of daily life. So Close To Home also offers respite care for short stays and hospice care if needed, so if someone needs a break from caregiving or if medical needs become more serious, arrangements are available.

    The facility is regulated by Wisconsin's Department of Social Services and is known for being highly rated, with reviews and a community scoring system showing a strong 9.3 out of 10, and folks can find options for independent living with resort-style amenities and maintenance-free living too, letting people stay active with less to worry about. With all that's provided-nurses on staff, all-day supervision, help with daily tasks, safety technology, and extra support for memory care, including special activities for folks with Alzheimer's or dementia-it's set up for people who need both day-to-day help and special attention. The small size, caring staff, and focus on comfort and safety stand out here, and with services like mobility and awareness support, social nights, gardens, transportation, and daily programs, residents get the chance to live as independently and fully as possible, in a comfortable place that tries to help them feel at home, even as their care needs change over time.

Respite care in assisted living communities provides temporary, short-term relief for primary caregivers by offering professional care for their loved ones. It allows individuals to stay in an assisted living community for a limited time, giving caregivers a break while ensuring residents receive necessary support and assistance with daily activities.
