The Waterford At West Bend

The Waterford At West Bend sits along the Milwaukee River in West Bend, Wisconsin, and offers a range of senior living options like independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and continuing care all in one place, so residents don't have to move as their needs change, which is convenient for many folks who'd rather stay where they're comfortable, and the place looks nice on the outside, with its bold brick accents and traditional lap siding, and the gardens are kept up for those who enjoy spending time outdoors or gardening in the raised beds. Inside, the community feels cozy because of the fireplaces and homelike furniture, and the indoor walking paths make it easy for residents to get exercise when the weather isn't good, while the library and the open-concept areas give space for both quiet time and social activities. Residents can choose from studio and one-bedroom apartment homes that include kitchenettes, wide entryways for people who use wheelchairs or scooters, and bathrooms with handrails for safety, and there's also help with daily needs like bathing, dressing, and meal preparation if that's ever needed, with 24-hour staff on-site for support. Memory care is available through the Magnolia Trails™ program, which is meant to help those living with Alzheimer's or dementia with specialized care in a safe, familiar environment, and caregivers get special training to make sure residents get the right support. The Waterford At West Bend provides social, educational, and entertainment programs like ice cream socials, happy hours, and morning stretch classes, and there's a community garden, an activity center, and TV lounge to keep people engaged, while religious services-including Catholic and other faiths-take place on site for those who want them. The facility is pet-friendly and allows small cats and dogs, offering pet care services so residents don't have to give up their companions when they move in. Services include laundry and dry-cleaning, housekeeping, transportation at cost, and access to beauty salon and barber shop services without having to leave the building. Dining includes options for people with special diets, such as low or no sugar, low or no sodium, or gluten-free meals, and guest meals are available in private dining rooms when family visits. The building is wheelchair accessible and has both showers and full tubs, and there's support for people needing medication management, diabetic care, and non-ambulatory services, plus hospice and respite care for those who need short-term support. Regular Residence Council meetings help residents have a say in menus and activities. With full-time professional staff, a secure environment, and amenities both indoors and outdoors, The Waterford At West Bend aims to support seniors in a setting where they can stay social and maintain their independence for as long as possible.
