Armour House

Armour House sits in Milwaukee, WI, and holds a license as both a Community Based Residential Facility and as an Adult Family Home, so it's on the smaller side with either 4 or 5 beds, and it offers an intimate and quiet setting for seniors needing long-term non-acute care, often costing less compared to nursing homes. The community offers different living choices, including independent living, senior apartments in studio and 1-bedroom sizes, and assisted living with help for daily needs like bathing, dressing, grooming, transfers, and medication management, and if families are worried about dementia or memory loss, Armour House has memory care services with skilled staff, 24-hour supervision, and special support for residents with Alzheimer's or dementia to prevent wandering and anxiety. People living there can get specialized care like skilled nursing, hospice, home care, and respite care services, plus support for non-ambulatory residents and help with transfers, and for those needing more personal care, staff offer around-the-clock attention, manage medications, and coordinate with outside healthcare providers while focusing on each resident's well-being. Armour House covers basic support like meal preparation, housekeeping, laundry, help with moving in, and even transportation and parking, and everyone dines together in a shared dining room with food planned for special diets like diabetic or allergy-sensitive needs. Residents benefit from community living with amenities like secure communal spaces, a garden, outdoor walking paths, a reading room, and a lounge, while also joining in on movie nights, community-sponsored activities, and having access to telephones in rooms, scheduled meals, and emergency alert systems for safety. The facility has pet policies with certain rules and restrictions, so pets might have limits, and offers furnished rooms to keep things simple for moving in. Armour House doesn't accept Medicare for care services unless certified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, and there's no specific information on activities or extra amenities beyond what's already listed, but families often find peace of mind knowing their loved ones are supervised and cared for, with daily life and health needs met in a safe, supportive place.
