Our House Memory Care – Wisconsin Dells concentrates exclusively on memory care, providing a setting designed for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Residents can be admitted for long-term care or for a respite stay when families need short-term help. To address specific health needs, the community supports diabetes management and makes speech therapy available, helping residents maintain communication skills for as long as possible.
A secured environment helps minimize wandering risk while allowing residents to move about freely inside the community. On-site medical oversight covers incontinence management, ambulatory assistance, comprehensive memory-care programming, hospice coordination, and medication management. Occupational and physical therapists visit the building to work on strength and daily-living skills, and a podiatrist is available for routine foot care. Every service is delivered within a setting built specifically to accommodate memory loss, so all team members are trained to interact using dementia-informed techniques.
Accommodations include private and companion suites that may feature wheelchair-accessible showers, outdoor views, and in some cases space for a resident’s small pet. The building offers outdoor areas for supervised fresh-air breaks and has on-site parking for visitors. Because layouts and room features vary, families are encouraged to verify which options are included in the specific apartment they select.
Daily meals are prepared on site, with menus created to meet the nutritional needs of older adults while supporting cognitive health. Residents gather in a central dining room for three home-style meals each day, and alternate vegetarian selections are always available. Staff members monitor intake and provide cueing or assistance as needed to ensure everyone eats safely and receives adequate hydration.
For recreation and social interaction, residents have access to an activity center where structured programs—ranging from memory-focused games to light exercise—take place. Weather permitting, staff often accompany small groups outdoors so residents can enjoy fresh air and seasonal events in a supervised setting.
