HeatherWood Assisted Living & Memory Care in Eau Claire, Wisconsin offers assisted-living care designed for adults who are largely independent but need help with certain daily activities. Staff members assist with bathing, grooming, dressing, mobility, continence support, and regular medication reminders, allowing residents to maintain as much autonomy as possible while having reliable support close at hand.
Medical monitoring at HeatherWood is overseen by licensed nurses who track vital signs, review medication regimens, and communicate with physicians when health changes arise. Care staff are on site around the clock, and each apartment is equipped with an emergency response system that alerts caregivers if immediate help is needed. The team also coordinates outside services such as physical, occupational, or speech therapy so residents can receive clinically ordered treatments without leaving the community.
Residents may choose from studio or one-bedroom accommodations, each with a private bathroom. Many apartments include kitchenettes, individual climate controls, and walk-in showers, while select units offer added features such as patios or extra storage; not every apartment includes every feature. Weekly housekeeping, linen service, and maintenance are part of the standard support package.
Meals are prepared by culinary staff and served three times daily in the shared dining room. Menus are planned to follow nutritional guidelines for older adults, with accommodations available for physician-ordered diets, food allergies, or texture modifications. Snacks and beverages are accessible throughout the day, and residents who prefer to dine in their apartments can request tray service.
An Activity Center serves as the main hub for social, educational, and recreational programming. Scheduled events include exercise classes, crafts, music sessions, and small-group games, and the space is open for residents to use during unscheduled times for informal gatherings or individual hobbies.
