I'm really happy my mom is here. As a frequent visitor I'm treated with equally good care. I would recommend it to others who are currently searching for a place for their loved one. Moving my mother 800 miles was challenging, but the informative, friendly, and helpful staff were so patie

I'm really happy my mom is here. As a frequent visitor I'm treated with equally good care. I would recommend it to others who are currently searching for a place for their loved one. Moving my mother 800 miles was challenging, but the informative, friendly, and helpful staff were so patient with us. The apartment is beautiful. Everything was clean and ready for her. The surrounding neighborhood has abundant green spaces and numerous services nearby. Meals are well prepared, with many options, served by attentive staff. The flexibility of levels of care without another move is a rare find and makes so much sense. The Waterford has also developed great opportunities for entertainment, informal group activities, and community trips. I have great trust that my mom (& other residents) are safe and content.

Caring Compassionate Friendly Staff
My Mom is very happy living independently at The Waterford. The staff is very helpful, friendly and compassionate. My Mom was recently hospitalized. Our family was contacted by the Executive Director to see how she was and asking if there was anything we needed. The Maintenance Manager is very responsive and prompt. The Activities Director always has fun activities planned to engage the residents. Mom loves the friendships she has formed and looks forward to attending musical performances, happy hour, trivia, bingo and participating in other social activities. There are so many ways to be engaged with The Waterford Community. It's been great for Mom and is a safe and wonderful place for her to call home.

Wonderful place !
My mother has been a resident at the Waterford for many years. She’s happy, we’re happy and everyone who comes to visit comments on what a nice place it is. It’s clean, staff are friendly, professional , approachable and accommodating. The leadership team keeps residents and families well informed and work incredibly hard to overcome challenges (ie staffing). Would highly recommend the Waterford to anyone who is independent but perhaps on their way to needing assistance.

Mom lives there and she loves it
My mom has resided at the Waterford since [date removed]. She is now 95 years old, and she loves it. Waterford folks are both attentive and kind and mom loves all the social opportunities. She has gained many friends and has lost the depression that shrouded her last few years before moving to the Waterford. A first rate senior living residence that I can heartily recommend!

I have lived here about four years. The workers here are very pleasant. Everyone is great. We have Wii bowling, which I had never done before I moved here. However, I now bowl and I love it!! We have bridge, euchre, bingo, and poker. I am sure I have probably forgotten other things that they may do here. We also have arts and crafts that you can work on here and there’s pretty much something to do quite often here. I have a lot of friends here. We go to our friends who live here and we have coffee together. We also play cards at our homes. They do have cards, bingo, and competition here. I feel very safe here after hours the doors are locked to the outside. The people who work here are very friendly. I left when my husband got very sick, but eventually I came back here. One reason I came back here it was like it was my home. I like the help here and the friends who live here. I would definitely recommend it but as you can see, this is my second time back here. Hope to see you sometime

Warm Staff, Delicious Food Made Waterford a Good Choice for Mom
My mom chose Waterford because she liked their 1-bedroom apartment. She called it sunny. We narrowed the search to Waterford and [community removed]. It was a very hard decision between these two but I think my mom made the right decision for her. Waterford made my first cut, narrowing 6 communities down to 3, because I was impressed by the warmth and dedication of the staff. My mom and I also agreed that Waterford had the best food, not even a contest. I was also pleased how fast we were able to get physical and occupational therapists into see my mom. Their efforts easily surpass what she would/has received living alone. My only thought since moving in is that the Waterford seems to be understaffed. This puts a lot of pressure on the current staff. This hasn't really affected my mom's experience but trying to get a hold of them with appropriate follow through has sometimes been challenging for me.

Very corporate. [name removed], the director, is abrasive and somewhat pushy. Excellent outings and field trips. [name removed], the driver, is wonderful, and truly cares about the residents. The apartments are quite spacious. The gas fireplace and deck are very nice touches you don't find elsewhere. Laundry in each unit is nice too. Facility could use more signage, as the layout is somewhat confusing. Main entrance is not locked or monitored during the weekends, which is a little concerning.

Thank you for sharing this honest feedback. I appreciate hearing how much your loved one enjoys the outings that we offer! I apologize for not meeting your expectations, and I feel just terrible that my words or actions at any time would have come across as abrasive or pushy. I have made it my life's work serving the senior population, and only want the very best for each of our residents. I would genuinely love the opportunity to speak with you about your concerns, and learn how I can change this perception. Please call me at 608-270-9200.

I recommend them. But not for advance level of care.
Waterford is an RCAC. We did not understand that the level of care we needed, they were not able to provide. We trusted that they wouldn't have accepted them ( our parents) if this was so. Said they could do hand over mouth feeding but that wasn't possible for breakfast. Turning and checking for incontinence every 2 hours was too much for the staff to do. Developed multiple ulcers. Coccyx, heels ankles. We had hospice involved from the beginning but that was just weekly visits. Staff friendly, but there was communication barrier. I'm not sure they understood much English when we spoke to the caregivers. Parents had trouble understanding them. After a year we wanted to increase care for the independent parent we were told they could not go to a level of assistance ( administer meds and give her a pendant to call for help) because her POAHC was activated. The dependent parent totally blind, needed to be feed. Could walk with walker with a sighted person assisting. Waterford could not provide this care and soon became immobile, developed ulcers which got worse with his incontinence. ( Unable to provide a toileting schedule.) They were never able to give the dependent parent a shower. The shower chair could not get over the lip of the shower. Waterford was a condo prior to being an RCAC and therefore not equipped. Once again we figured out what an RCAC is not able to do even though they say on the paperwork they can provide those services. It's a place you press your call light and are able to tell the staff what you need. There is no RN so they. are unable to anticipate your needs as your condition changes.

Thank you for your feedback and for entrusting us with the care of your loved one. We understand it can be frustrating and confusing navigating care options and assisted living regulations. As an RCAC, we are limited by state law to providing a maximum of 28 hours per week of personal, supportive, or nursing care services. Combined with other services, this is likely the reason our team was not able to commit to hand over hand feeding for 3 meals each day, as that would have brought the weekly hours count to 21 without any other services provided. In addition to the limit of care, WI DHS 89 does not permit an RCAC to admit a resident to assisted living once their POAHC has been activated unless their responsible party will be residing with them. These laws are in place to protect residents, and we take them very seriously, but we realize they can cause inconveniences in certain situations for the resident and their family. Again, we thank you for your trust, and wish things could have worked out differently.

I chose The Waterford at Fitchburg because it was a better fit for my parents across the board, assisted and independent living. They could have cats, they could stay together, etc. It is a really nice place, they are unlikely to be able to account for really high need patients

Happy Home
I moved back to the Madison area where I'm originally from, about 8 years ago and looked at various options. I've been pleasure with my decision to live at the Waterford. Staff is very pleasant and helpful. While in independent I don't use the care provider but they seem to be very good.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Wisconsin regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Wisconsin regulations for Assisted Living.

A Place for Mom has scored The Waterford at Fitchburg 9.5 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.   We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.   Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
