Tall Oaks of West Allis sits in West Allis, WI, in a spot with nearby hospitals, shopping, and parks, which can make it easier for families and residents who want to have things close by, and the community has room for up to 20 residents so it's not too big or too small, and you'll find both standard and extended care programs there. The owners, Mr. John C. Becherer and Mrs. Tina M. Becherer, have managed the place since it started in 1999 as a Limited Liability Company, and you can tell they put focus on getting residents the kind of support that helps maintain as much independence as possible as folks age, offering both assisted living and memory care, plus skilled nursing and home care, each with 24-hour supervision and a call system for added safety and peace of mind. You'll see they have a choice of studio rooms, and each one comes with furnishings, emergency alert systems, and regular help for activities like bathing, dressing, and transferring, even for those who need a bit of extra help moving about, and they also have special diets like diabetic and allergy-sensitive meals, prepared right there, and laundry, housekeeping, and coordination for new move-ins so the basics are covered. Residents get medication management, plus healthcare services in a professionally managed group setting, with supportive staff giving individualized care as needed, and you'll notice they have a barber and salon, arts room, a dining area, walking paths, a garden, and a social calendar full of movie nights, community activities, and daily events, all aiming to keep folks socially active and mentally engaged. The place provides transportation and parking services, which helps with errands or keeping appointments, and there's a neighborhood exploration feature that can give families and residents real information about the weather, local crime, hospitals, and parks nearby, which can offer extra peace of mind or just helps you get a better sense of the area if you're new to it. Tall Oaks does have a 5.5 out of 10 rating from reviews, and it's not accredited by the BBB but is a member of the BBB Serving Wisconsin, and anyone interested should check the facility's licensing status directly with the state, since some care services may have special requirements and regulations to check up on. The staff supports independent living for those who want it, and there are memory care and skilled nursing options for others who need a higher level of support, and overall, the facility wants to foster a cozy, warm environment where it's easy for residents to get individual attention and keep their dignity as they age in place, even if they need more help with daily care or medical needs as time goes by.

Lovely grounds but unsafe, mismanaged
I lived at this senior living facility and had mixed feelings: the grounds, relaxing view and deer in the yard are lovely and many staff were wonderful, but the place is badly mismanaged and toxic. I dealt with bed bugs, a persistent urine smell and dirty areas, saw only two staff on shift at times, experienced theft by a supervisor, stolen keys and even an employee’s house burglary — staff fought, worked unfair hours, and care felt unsafe. Beautiful setting can't hide the poor management, understaffing, and serious safety concerns; I can't recommend it.
