Deerfield Adult Family Home sits in Menomonie, Wisconsin, and provides care in a small, peaceful setting with only 4 senior apartments and assisted living units, which means people tend to get to know each other and staff pretty well, so folks who like a quieter place might like it here. Every apartment has safety features, a washer and dryer, and a kitchenette, and rooms also come fully furnished with private bathrooms, air-conditioning, cable TV, and internet, so residents can feel comfortable. There's a choice between private, semi-private, or shared rooms, including studio suites and one-bedroom units, with decks and porches for fresh air and views of the nicely cared-for walking paths and gardens outside. Residents can expect utilities included, except for the phone, and there's personal laundry and weekly housekeeping, so there's little to worry about around the house, plus maintenance for both fixtures and appliances.
Care at Deerfield Adult Family Home covers many needs, like help with bathing, dressing, medication management, scheduled bathroom reminders, and transfers for those with limited mobility; there's even spoon feeding when required and support for people living with Alzheimer's, dementia, or Parkinson's disease. The registered nurse on staff, along with caregivers around the clock, stay close by, keeping an eye on residents and offering health assessments, medication help, and assistance for daily activities, while transportation is organized for doctor appointments or off-site outings. Folks get individualized care plans to match their needs, with services including rehabilitation such as physical and speech therapy, and wellness programs to keep everyone as active and healthy as possible.
For meals, there's organic food, all-day snacks, accommodations for special diets, and a community dining room where everyone can eat together if they want to. The home also has on-site catering for special occasions and a café, so food options are flexible. People can use the community kitchen, library and reading rooms, computer area, movie room, beauty and barbershop, chapel, and fitness area, and the place schedules creative arts and crafts, games, group outings, movie nights, and community-sponsored events to make it easier to stay social. Residents also have access to a massage service, community garden, decks for sitting outside, and safe walking trails if they want to spend time outdoors.
There's a 24-hour call system and keypad entry for security and peace of mind. The staff keeps up with maintenance, so fixtures and appliances work as they should. Residents can expect prompt help and coordination with healthcare providers, and care staff will drive or arrange rides to medical visits. Seniors who need some help but want to stay independent often find living here comfortable, as they can rely on support but keep their own space. The state of Wisconsin licenses Deerfield Adult Family Home under license #15035. Deerfield currently holds a community score of 3.8 when looking at reviews, safety, and local livability. The setting is rural but near medical centers like Dunn County Health Care Center and Marshfield Clinic Menomonie Center, so doctors aren't too far away, and the small number of residents makes it easier to keep track of everyone's well-being.
