Hillcrest Homes 44Th sits in Greenfield, Wisconsin, and holds a license to care for up to 8 residents, making it a small and close-knit place where folks tend to get to know each other well over time, and the staff gets familiar with each person's needs in a way that can feel comfortable and reassuring, especially for those who prefer not to be in a large building with lots of different faces every day. The building stays secure 24/7, so families can feel at ease knowing their loved ones have support nearby while going about their day, and there's always someone to help when it's needed, whether that's for medication assistance, help getting in and out of bed, or moving about the building safely. The facility provides care for seniors managing conditions like dementia, Parkinson's disease, and general difficulties with daily activities such as toileting, bathing, dressing, or grooming, and staff aim to balance supporting independence while also stepping in when help is needed, which can mean a lot to those who still want to do things themselves as much as possible but admit some tasks aren't as easy as they used to be.
The accommodations range from small studios designed for usefulness to shared living quarters and single bedroom spaces, with residents able to pick from different layouts, depending on their personal wishes and what feels right for them, and these rooms stay easy to get around in and are set up for comfort above all else. Special services include memory care designed to reduce confusion, skilled nursing when more attention is needed, and also home care for those who want to continue living in their own homes with some help coming in daily. There's a barber or beauty shop that brings services right into the building, so people don't have to go far for a haircut or style, and massage service is available on site, which can help with relaxation and body aches, as well as a focus on activities like music therapy, pet visits, crafts, games, and exercise to keep body and mind active, which residents can do as they like throughout the week.
Meals get cooked by an on-site chef and are served in the dining room, with special diet options for health conditions like diabetes and hypertension, and there's even a private dining space for when family visits or people want a more intimate meal; snacks and drinks are always within reach. The community is pet friendly, so both cats and dogs are welcome, and yard areas give some outdoor space for walks or fresh air. Facilities include a pharmacist, on-site laundry so everyone gets their clothes cleaned without fuss, a theater for movie watching, and a chapel for those who want a quiet place or attend weekly services, along with a reading room, wellness area, and recreation rooms, all set up to create a home-like and relaxed atmosphere.
There's support for more complex care when that's needed, such as two-person assistance for lifts or transfers and special supervision for those who might wander due to dementia, and there's always a nurse on-call for healthcare needs or emergencies. Family can park on-site, and staff help coordinate transportation to appointments, shopping, or community events, which helps residents stay involved and get out when they want a change of scenery. Caregivers at Hillcrest Homes 44Th aim to create a gentle and respectful environment, encourage friendships, and provide help when it's welcome, while allowing everyone the freedom to enjoy each day as they like, whether enjoying activities, spending quiet time, or taking part in planned social events.
