ARIA of Waukesha sits in Waukesha, WI, and offers a wide range of senior care options including adult day care and home care services, so if someone wants to live at home or needs somewhere safe during the day, they've got help. This place runs under the Virginia Health & Rehabilitation Center as part of the ARIA Healthcare group, which covers everything from independent living for active seniors all the way to assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing. The community's got independent apartments and condos, places where seniors can enjoy things like laundry, housekeeping, and meals cooked right there, which takes a load off for folks who don't want to keep up with chores anymore. The memory care unit supports people with Alzheimer's and other dementias, though costs can be pretty high-about three times more than standard healthcare for seniors-because the care has to be specialized and constant.
The staff pay attention, and they work around the clock, which means they can take in folks admitted any hour, even if a hospital lets someone out late, giving peace of mind for families in unpredictable situations. There are skilled nursing and rehab services, recovery options after an illness, stroke, or surgery, and special rehab for bones, heart, lungs, and even complicated wound care. For those who just need help with dressing or bathing, or maybe keeping up with medicine, the assisted living section will handle daily needs, and everyone gets access to housekeeping, laundry, and dining with one or two meals made every day. People there can join pet therapy, meditation or worship, or take part in outings and transportation services, since ARIA wants to keep life interesting while making sure everyone's safe. Private rooms with bathrooms, emergency call buttons, cable TV, and furnished spaces make things feel comfortable and more like home, and there's a resident lounge too, so no one has to eat in their room or feel left out. Residents get a chance to meet others, join activities, and regain confidence with support from physical, occupational, and speech therapy. The folks running things do their best to keep families and residents in the loop about insurance, payments, and what's covered, answering questions and helping with choices, which makes hard decisions a bit easier.
Tours are available so people can see for themselves, meet staff and other residents, and figure out if the place fits with what they want. ARIA of Waukesha says their goal is to help people heal, stay independent as long as possible, and always treat everyone with care and respect, all in a setting that feels secure and friendly.
