Harvest Home of Racine offers both Assisted Living and Memory Care, providing a setting that is prepared for residents who wander during the day or night, have a history of elopement, or present combative or other behavioral challenges. The team accepts individuals who require wound management, oxygen support, or special diets, and is experienced in caring for adults under 60 as well as those with advanced dementia. Diabetic residents—whether managed by oral medication, injections, or sliding‐scale protocols—are welcome, and staff are trained to monitor these regimens closely. The community is also able to support residents who stay awake throughout the night, ensuring oversight and redirection when needed.
An RN or LPN is on site, with a nurse on call around the clock, and awake night staff provide constant monitoring. Background checks are standard for all employees, and security measures include alarmed doors, a fenced rear area, 24-hour staff presence, pull cords, and personal emergency response systems that alert caregivers immediately. On-site services such as podiatry are available, and residents with psychiatric conditions can be accommodated. Assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting is provided up to full-support levels, while transfer options include standby help, one-person lifts, walker or wheelchair transitions. An activity director coordinates structured programming tailored to each resident’s abilities and medical profile.
Rooms can be furnished and may include private bathrooms, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option for residents to personalize walls with their preferred paint or décor. Not every accommodation has every feature, so families should verify specifics during a tour. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry are provided to keep living spaces clean and organized.
Meals follow a set menu prepared to meet nutritional guidelines, with staff able to manage physician-ordered diet modifications ranging from diabetic to texture-altered plans. Snacks are available between meals, and a private dining room can be reserved for gatherings with family or friends. Care staff remain present to assist residents who need help eating or monitoring intake.
Residents have access to on-site parking, outdoor smoking areas, and wheelchair-accessible common spaces. A barber and beauty shop, internet connectivity, and communal gardens add convenience and social options. Religious services are held on the premises, and transportation support includes scheduled medical shuttles as well as proximity to public transit for independent outings.
