About The Waterford at Fitchburg

from Oasis Senior Advisors

The Waterford at Fitchburg in Fitchburg, WI, offers a range of care types including assisted living and senior living, specifically tailored to meet the needs of residents requiring medical support. The facility provides essential medical services such as wound care, oxygen administration, and dietary management for special diets. They accommodate residents under 60 years old, including those managing diabetes with either oral medications or injections, and those on a sliding scale. Additionally, the facility supports individuals with mild dementia conditions, staffed by registered nurses and licensed practical nurses available around the clock, ensuring a responsive environment to care needs.

Beyond medical support, The Waterford at Fitchburg offers extensive assistance with daily living activities to enhance residents' quality of life. Services include full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, with structured support for transfers using walkers, wheelchairs, and specialized equipment like Hoyer lifts. The on-site amenities extend to podiatry services, empowering residents to reliably access care when needed. Enhanced security measures, including background checks and 24-hour on-call nursing staff, further assure families of the safety and well-being of their loved ones.

The accommodations at The Waterford are designed for comfort and personalization, featuring options such as private bathrooms, independent temperature controls, and the allowance for residents to paint and decorate their rooms.

#1 in Fitchburg, WI

Residents and their families say:

This community is well-regarded by many residents and their families for its spacious and comfortable accommodations, a wide range of activities, and the quality of care provided by the staff. Residents enjoy the amenities, including full kitchens in apartments, a variety of social events, and onsite services such as a bistro, hair salon, and therapy options. The community's approach to care is appreciated, particularly the capability to transition from independent to assisted living without moving to a different unit, which provides residents with a sense of stability and comfort. The apartments themselves are often highlighted for being large, bright, and well-appointed, contributing to a pleasant living environment. The staff receive praise for their friendly and helpful demeanor, and meals are generally enjoyed for their variety and quality.

However, there are some concerns and criticism noted by a few residents and their families. The main issues revolve around the quality of food, which some find to be lackluster at times, and the execution of activities, which could see improvements in terms of diversity and frequency. Additionally, there is feedback regarding the need for maintenance and updates around the community, suggesting a room for enhancement in facilities' upkeep. The cost of living in this community is also a point of contention for some, as it is perceived to be on the higher side, particularly when additional care services are required. Despite these criticisms, many find the warm, friendly atmosphere and the range of amenities offered to make this community a desirable place to live.
