Clarity Care Packer Heights sits at 560 W Packer Ave in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, and is a small senior housing community with just eight assisted living units, which helps make things feel more personal and less crowded than some larger places, and folks can choose from studio apartments, one-bedroom units, or shared rooms depending on what they prefer or need, and the community is licensed, its number being 13517. The place mainly provides assisted living and memory care services, which means residents who need help with daily tasks like moving around, bathing, getting dressed, showering, or taking medication can get that support, and the staff there know how to help people with Parkinson's disease, dementia, and Alzheimer's, and there's physical therapy too. The building has 24/7 secured premises and emergency response all day and night, which gives some peace of mind, plus there's a system in place so that if a family or prospective resident wants more help or has questions, they can ask for it. Meals are homemade three times a day, and they work with special diets for folks with diabetes, high blood pressure, or other needs. There's help with laundry, cleaning, and case management, and staff can help with getting doctor appointments or running errands and, sometimes, transportation to faith services.
The community includes indoor common areas, a library, garden spaces, a fitness section, a communal kitchen, and on-site pharmacy access, so most things folks need are right there, and there's a barber or parlor that visits. Residents might enjoy activities like music therapy, games, gardening, movie time, scheduled events, and social nights, and those who like animals can join pet therapy. The staff can help with insulin shots and handle incontinence or non-ambulatory care if needed, plus two-person transfers if residents need more support moving about. People can pick between private, semi-private, or one-bedroom layouts, and there's respite care for short stays and hospice care if someone needs more support at the end of life. Memory care programs help those with memory-related problems keep some independence, and caregiver training for staff has been part of the organization for years, with state approval since 1988. Clarity Care started in 1972, and now has a team of more than 550 who have served over 1,500 clients across 21 Wisconsin counties, focusing on letting folks keep control over their lives and feel like family while getting the support they need. The assisted living price shows as $3,819 per month, and more information is available when you ask about their programs and services.
