Comforts of Home – St. Croix Falls offers two primary care options: Assisted Living and Memory Care. Residents who choose Assisted Living receive help with everyday tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication reminders, while still maintaining as much independence as possible. The Memory Care neighborhood is structured for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias, featuring routines and cueing techniques that reduce anxiety and support familiarity.
The community is secure and staffed to respond to a broad range of medical needs. Short-term respite stays are available, which can be helpful after a hospital visit or when a caregiver is away. Nurses are on-site to coordinate diabetes management, wound care, and medication administration. Residents have scheduled access to speech, occupational, and physical therapists, plus podiatry visits. Incontinence and ambulatory care are provided as needed, and hospice support is offered when appropriate, allowing residents to remain in place through changing health conditions.
Private and companion suites are available, each designed with straightforward layouts and wide doorways for easy mobility. Many suites include features such as cable television, utilities, and wheelchair-accessible showers; however, not every unit offers every feature, so it is advisable to confirm specifics during a tour. Outdoor sitting areas give residents space for fresh air, and limited parking is offered for those who still drive or for visiting family members. Select accommodations overlook landscaped areas that the community refers to as its Midwest Village and Nicholas Conservatory & Anderson Gardens, adding a pleasant view without leaving the grounds.
Three daily meals are prepared on-site and served in a central dining room, with menus created to balance taste and nutrition. Staff accommodate physician-ordered diets, including carbohydrate-controlled options for residents managing diabetes. Between meals, healthy snacks are available so residents can maintain stable energy levels and blood sugar. Memory Care residents receive additional assistance at mealtimes to ensure they stay engaged and well nourished.
Residents looking for ways to stay active have use of an activity center that schedules group games, crafts, and exercise sessions. Clubs and informal communities let residents pursue shared interests, whether that means a weekly card game or a discussion group. Outdoor access is encouraged when weather allows, so residents can garden, walk, or sit in designated patio areas.
