Rosewood Oakwood Cottage is a licensed Community Based Residential Facility in Waterford, WI, with 30 beds for seniors needing assisted living or memory care. The cottages provide a homelike setting where staff focus on helping residents with daily needs like bathing, dressing, medication management, meals, personal care, and laundry. The facility supports older adults living with dementia, Alzheimer's, or other memory problems, offering specialized memory care in secured environments. Residents can choose studio or semi-private furnished rooms, many with kitchenettes, cable TV, and Wi-Fi, and every room has access to a 24-hour call system.
The Rosewood Cottage has a "Reminisce-Sensory Room" set up to bring back good memories, while the Oakwood Cottage's "Life Skills Room" lets people enjoy familiar activities like flower arranging, working at a workbench, winding yarn, or reading magazines. The staff offer programs and activities for cognitive support, including sensory stimulation and memory enhancement, and there's supervision at any hour of the day or night. Residents are encouraged to keep their independence as much as possible, with staff giving the help each person needs. There's support for mobility, dressing, eating, and other daily routines, plus special consideration for diets, including allergy-sensitive and diabetes menus.
The grounds have walking paths and a garden, and the community areas include a library, dining room, lounge with a fireplace and TV, and a barber/salon for grooming. Residents can take part in community and resident-run activities, movie nights, and art projects. Meals use fresh ingredients and are served three times daily, with snacks available. Transportation, move-in support, and on-site therapy are part of the service, and the cottages partner with healthcare providers as needed. Staff also provide support for those with terminal illness, physical disability, or traumatic brain injury, and the home takes public funding in line with HCBS compliance.
Rosewood Oakwood Cottage gives families peace of mind with its safe, supervised care for people with cognitive challenges-even offering hospice and respite care for those who need it. The place feels warm, with a focus on dignity and keeping folks as independent as they can be for as long as they can, which makes it very suitable for people who might not need nursing home care but can't manage alone anymore.
