Solarte Residence gives seniors a safe and comfortable place to live, with a small community feel since there are only 8 beds, which means everyone gets to know each other and the staff pay attention to each resident. Residents get their own private rooms or can choose shared apartments, studios, or one-bedroom units, with some rooms having kitchenettes and all the usual comforts, such as phone, furniture, and all utilities included, so nobody needs to worry about setting those things up. Staff members are there all day and night, helping with moving around, grooming, showering, using the bathroom, dressing, and managing medications, plus they always have emergency alert systems installed for peace of mind. There's extra help for people who need help with incontinence or who want memory care for dementia and Alzheimer's, and licensed nurses and visiting healthcare specialists come by to check up on medical needs and make sure everyone stays as healthy as possible.
Residents get three regular, home-cooked meals every day, with choices for allergies or diabetes, and special meals for birthdays and occasions, and there's always a dietitian making sure menus meet health needs. If help is needed, staff will assist during meals, and there's scheduled all-day dining so meal times fit each person's schedule. Laundry and linen services get done for everyone, so people don't have to lift a finger, and housekeeping staff keep rooms tidy, clean the bathroom, and can even offer dry cleaning. Caregivers offer help with personal needs, and they can do things like 2-person transfers or insulin injections if that's needed-just check with the staff for details.
There are lots of ways to spend time, either in the landscaped courtyard, garden, or on walking paths if the weather's nice, or inside, maybe reading in the book room or joining neighbors for a movie night or a craft project in the games room. The community organizes daily activities, exercise programs, birthday events, trips off-site, and music or board games. There's a chapel for religious needs, computers and WiFi to keep in touch, and there's even a barber or hairdresser available. Pets like cats and dogs are welcome, and that can help everyone feel more at home.
Transportation gets arranged for grocery trips, doctor's appointments, or faith services, and parking is there for residents or their visitors, who can come during extended hours. Staff monitors everything 24/7 to make sure everyone stays safe, and all the care is personalized, so help matches each person's needs, whether for memory care, respite care, or long-term assisted living. Each resident gets an individualized care plan, with the goal of keeping everyone as independent as possible while making sure no one feels alone or left out. Solarte Residence holds an assisted living license in Wisconsin (number 14205) as a Community Based Residential Facility, and doesn't take Medicare unless certified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. With just 8 residents, a focus on safety and comfort, help with daily activities, and many chances to make friends and stay active, Solarte Residence offers a solid option for those who need some support with day-to-day life.
