River View Lodge Assisted Living sits in Wisconsin Rapids and is part of a network of senior living communities that includes services in Stevens Point. The facility at 1800 Sherman Ave, Suite B, focuses on assisted living but also offers memory care, independent living, nursing home services, and respite care for short-term stays. Residents can get different types of care, from daily help with things like bathing, dressing, or managing medicine, all the way to support for more serious health needs such as diabetes, memory issues, incontinence, and non-ambulatory care, and the staff can also coordinate hospice care when needed. The facility has licensed nurses on staff, and you'll find caregivers able to help with diabetic management, including insulin care, and they're trained to help with issues like memory loss or confusion, so if someone needs extra support, there's help there round the clock.
River View Lodge offers pet care for cats and dogs, and staff look after both residents and animals, which can make things feel homier. The rooms come with full tubs, and showers are wheelchair accessible, which helps folks with different mobility needs. There's resident parking for those who drive and complimentary transportation for medical appointments, with other transport available at cost, so people have flexibility, and services like guest meals, brain fitness programs, and trips offsite help everyone stay involved. Meals are prepared by chefs, with vegetarian and kosher meal options, and they make sure to follow any dietary restrictions, so everyone gets good, hot food each day.
Inside, residents use indoor common areas, an enclosed courtyard, and spaces for religious services with visiting chaplains or priests. The full-time activity director keeps a schedule that might include happy hour, birthday or BBQ parties, live music, dance or theater shows, devotional activities, and field trips, so folks usually have something to do. Physical therapy is available through visiting therapists. There's a beauty salon and other traveler-friendly amenities, and memory care features are in place to help folks with Alzheimer's or dementia, including steps to reduce wandering. The community usually houses between 14 and 28 residents, which makes for a close, supportive environment. Staff speak English, and there's always someone on call for medical needs, with visiting doctors, podiatrists, and specialists coming by as needed.
