Crest View sits in Wisconsin and has locations on Division Street in Mauston and View Street in New Lisbon, and it's owned and operated by Mile Bluff Medical Center, and folks there will find a mix of services, like skilled nursing, assisted living, memory care, and short-term rehab, and they say the facility keeps 50 or 60 beds depending on the location, with both private rooms and L-shaped double rooms-some have shared bathrooms, too, and the specially designed dementia wing has a closed, self-contained layout with secure outdoor areas where residents can walk, garden, and enjoy fresh air under staff supervision. Residents needing support for Alzheimer's or related dementia have a safe environment with exit alerts and a security system to help ensure staff know if someone tries to leave, and the dedicated workforce focuses on dementia care, including assessment, care planning, behavioral intervention, medication distribution, and therapeutic activity programs that mean people can join life enrichment activities and recreational programs or attend spiritual services or volunteer if they want.
The staff provides 24-hour professional nursing care and doesn't use physical or chemical restraints, and rooms feel homelike, giving folks space for socializing and access to a kitchenette, dining area, activity room, living room, laundry area, and a common bathing area, and the shared patio outside is set up for walking and relaxation. Crest View gives nursing and intermediate care for frail seniors or those who need rehab between a hospital stay and going home, offering things like physical, speech, and occupational therapy on site, as well as wound care, IV support, discharge planning, and food and nutrition services, and residents can also get help with housekeeping, laundry, transportation, money management, and personal hygiene, plus visits to the beauty shop. The community has strict admission rules, so folks need to move around and eat on their own, and anyone who's bedridden, destructive, abusive, or has more care needs than they provide won't be admitted, and it's recommended to have a Healthcare Power of Attorney. Crest View supports English-speaking residents, accepts both Medicare and Medicaid, offers adult day care and independent apartments, and includes access to specialty medical consults, and they're run by physicians and follow clear rules about who they serve, and sometimes, depending on where you call, they may not accept new residents.
