Bright Start Adult Family Home sits in Kenosha, WI and provides care for a small number of residents in a quiet, home-like setting, and the place has 4 assisted living units, keeping things personal and cozy, so you'll see the same faces every day. This adult family home is licensed-Wisconsin license number 12956-and specializes in helping older adults who need help with daily tasks or memory care, like people with Alzheimer's or dementia, and they've even got designated spaces like a 25-bed Alzheimer's/Dementia unit, Saint John's Canterbury Court as an Alzheimer's Specialty Care facility, and Saint John's On The Lake with more beds for memory care. Residents can bring a dog or a cat, which helps it feel a little more like home. The community lets folks pick from shared apartments, one-bedroom suites, spacious closets, and studio spaces, and everything's wheelchair accessible. They've got services for assisted living, home health, medication management, bathing or showering help, eating help-even Parkinson's care or transfers to and from beds.
Meals are served hot three times a day in the dining room, with snacks, and they do their best with special diets-whether that's for diabetes, allergies, or something else. Laundry, linen changes, and housekeeping get handled regularly, so families don't have to worry about that, and the staff stays awake and on site twenty-four hours a day. For special care needs, this place does hospice care, offers respite stays, and is certified for Medicare and Medicaid on some services. Memory care is a strength here, supported by emergency response systems, planned routines, and supervision around the clock with safety in mind. Residents can enjoy a community bistro, game room, beautician salon, chapel, gym, hot tub, and swimming pool, plus there's cable TV, Wi-Fi, on-site computers, and air conditioning.
The staff organizes activities, devotional services, movie nights, and social events, and there's a snack shop, library, games room, outdoor verandas, gardens, walking paths, and space for therapy. If someone has an appointment or needs to get to the hospital or grocery store, transportation's available for both medical and non-medical reasons, plus help getting organized or moved in is easy to request. This small community sits in a neighborhood near health facilities and everyday services, so getting help or groceries doesn't take much. Pets get plenty of attention, too, and there are emergency alert systems in every room. Bright Start Adult Family Home focuses on helping every resident with a plan that works for them, especially those who need regular checkups, prescription handling, personal care, or reminders, and everything's pretty straightforward. There's a strong emphasis on safety, with staff watching out for everyone, plus secure entry and safety features for people with memory loss or physical challenges, and this way of doing things keeps the place feeling familiar, safe, and supportive for folks who want some company and a little help with daily tasks.
