Ivy Terrace

Ivy Terrace sits in Oak Creek, Wisconsin, and offers both assisted living and memory care for older adults who need extra support, so you'll find staff help with daily activities like dressing and grooming, along with laundry, meal preparation, and medication support, and there's always someone on site because they have 24/7 staffing to handle emergencies and help residents who need to get from their beds to their wheelchairs. Ivy Terrace is a smoke-free community with a secure setting, focusing on dignity, independence, and each person's well-being, and it has a home-like group setting in the Ivy Terrace Group Home, which includes eight private bedrooms-comfortable and fully furnished-and some rooms offer kitchens or kitchenettes, safety features, maintenance, and cable TV. While not every part of the building is wheelchair accessible, areas like Trinity Home allow for it, as the facility tries to serve both ambulatory and semi-ambulatory seniors, providing tailored care plans and special care for those who need help with incontinence, wound care, diabetes, or non-ambulatory support. Inside, residents enjoy common areas, a game room, dining areas, and space for socializing, plus a fitness center, salon and barbershop, washers and dryers, and guest parking, and there's WiFi and cable, so the comforts are in place. Ivy Terrace serves home-cooked, nutritious meals three times a day and offers snacks, taking care of meal planning and special dietary needs, so residents don't have to worry about that either. The community brings people together with daily social and educational programs, arts and crafts, movement and health activities, and both on-site and offsite events-plus special devotional activities if desired. Transportation is available for appointments or outings, and the staff can help with podiatry, nursing, medication, wound care, occupational therapy, and other medical needs as needed, and they help monitor residents' insulin if someone has diabetes. Ivy Terrace accepts long term care insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, private pay, social security, private insurance, and veteran's benefits, and has various fees based on level of care-high, medium, or low-plus a community or buy-in fee and respite fee options, which is something to keep in mind. Rooms come in different options, such as studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and semi-private, and the facility meets state license requirements, follows safety rules, and has a minimum caregiver-to-senior ratio, so state laws are followed, though state verification is suggested for peace of mind. Ivy Terrace is open daily with operating hours varying by day-Tuesdays start extra early at 5 am and go to 5 pm, other days start at 9 am and end at 5 pm-and staff are ready to provide both non-medical and some healthcare services including personal care assistants and nursing home services for older adults who need extra help. With meals, laundry, safety features, social programming, and home healthcare services all on site in a smoke-free, supportive community, Ivy Terrace aims to give each resident the care they need and a living space that feels safe and respected.
