Our House Senior Living Memory Care - Chippewa Falls

5.0
They seem to be doing a pretty good job. The staff is pretty attentive, and they keep it clean. She is getting very good care, and a lot of attention. I don't get complaints about food, and when we go in it smells good. It's still pretty new, but so far, it's working out.

HeatherWood Assisted Living and Memory Care in Eau Claire, WI

5.0
Recently my mother passed away. Her time at Heatherwood was only 4 months. During her stay her care was exceptional. The staff went over and above in her care. The management were so easy to work with. They made us all feel "at home." Would definitely recommend.

Oak Gardens Place in Altoona, WI

Value. Better pricing. Smaller facility But that's fine because my brother tends to keep to himself anyway so no need for a larger facility with more people as far as he is concerned.
