Heartis Village Brookfield Assisted Living sits on W Greenfield Ave. in Brookfield, not far from I-94 and downtown Milwaukee, in a suburban spot with grocery stores and other conveniences just up the road, so this place gives older adults both easy access and some quiet surroundings. Residents can pick from studio, one-bedroom, one-bedroom deluxe, or a few two-bedroom apartments, most with their own living spaces or bedrooms and even a kitchenette, and all the apartments are designed for comfort, safety, and independence. The community offers assisted living and memory care, so seniors get personalized support with things like bathing, dressing, medication, transfers, and daily living needs, including special care for Alzheimer's and dementia with secured outdoor areas and alert systems if someone tries to exit, and staff trained in memory care.
People living here can count on weekly housekeeping and laundry, so they don't need to worry about cleaning, and the apartments are maintenance-free. The Expressions Concierge Services help with day-to-day tasks while scheduled resident transportation and a lift-equipped bus help people get to appointments or outings within 15 miles. Meals are chef-prepared, served three times daily in a restaurant-style dining room, and the kitchen can handle allergies or special diets like diabetes, plus there's the "Food for Thought" cooking demo every month where residents share what they'd like to eat. Residents always have their safety looked after, like with the emergency call system, emergency response pendants, and 24/7 staff supervision, and there are COVID-19 and flu shots offered on site alongside regular health therapies for physical, occupational, and speech needs.
The community's got some extras senior folks might like, say the art studio, a bistro and bar, the game room, and the Ruby Isle Theatre for movie nights, and you can get your hair done right on site at the salon and barber shop. For recreation and getting outside, there's a fitness center, walking paths, and even a nice garden. The Willaura Library and Technology Center helps residents stay connected, and there are activities programs to keep folks busy and social. For those needing help, care plans always get tailored to each resident so support is just right, with up to eight levels of care and even help with mechanical lifts for people who need more physical care.
Heartis Village hires its own staff, pays them competitively, and avoids outside agencies, so all caregivers are directly hired and well-vetted, and they aim to provide a consistent and kind experience for everyone. The facility holds a Community Based Residential Facility license so it can care for a range of physical and mental health needs, and it coordinates services for both ambulatory and non-ambulatory residents, with full wheelchair accessibility. Residents can bring their own pets along as long as they take care of them themselves, including cleaning up after dogs or cats. There's respite stays available between 14 and 28 days, or folks can stay permanently. For legal and educational support, the WALA Reinhart Legal Line, professional liability insurance, training, and webinars are available to members, and the staff use ongoing programs to keep up with best practices. Heartis Village wants to support residents' independence, provide comfort, promote well-being, and keep everyone as safe as possible, all in a setting that feels welcoming, supportive, and active, so older adults can keep living their lives with dignity and a bit of enjoyment along the way.
