Excelcare 2 sits at 4854 North 66th Street in Milwaukee and you'll find it offers both assisted living and memory care, which means folks with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia can get help in the 25-bed memory unit, while others get support with day-to-day things like bathing, dressing, and medicine. The staff includes caregivers like Certified Nursing Assistants, Personal Care Workers, and Nurse Aides, and there's always supervision day and night so someone is there when help's needed, plus you'll see emergency alert systems throughout the place for extra peace of mind, especially when some folks might need more immediate help if something happens. There's a focus on keeping residents' routines personal, honoring their choices as much as possible, and those staff can help in several languages, mainly English, to make communication clear.
The building has a mix of rooms, all furnished, where residents can use telephones, and the community offers a big dining room for meals, with special diet options for allergies or diabetes so nobody's left out, and you'll see regular housekeeping, laundry services, and move-in help when someone new is settling in. High-speed internet and cable or satellite TV are part of the amenities, which makes it easier to stay in touch with family or keep up with favorite shows, and transportation's available for trips to doctors or group outings, so getting out isn't a hassle. People here join in community activities like movie nights, gardening, or just walking the outdoor paths, which helps folks stay active and engaged, and everything from scheduling daily activities to arranging meals and working with healthcare providers is handled by staff who understand senior care.
Being Medicare and Medicaid certified, Excelcare 2 is a continuing care community, and with its garden, walking paths, and regular community activities that build friendships over time, it feels comfortable for many, and when residents need help, whether with moving around, taking medicine, or just managing everyday tasks, someone's usually close by and ready to pitch in without making things too complicated.
