I have found the care team and facilities of Azura Memory Care in Eau Claire to be superb. The staff are very attentive to my dad while at the same time respecting his independence. With their knowledge of his deficits and how to help him, they accommodate and/or assist him in a fitting manner, which constantly fluctuates; yet they adapt their interactions. The care team-- care providers, activity coordinator, maintenance, kitchen staff and management- are ALL involved. As a family member I see little to none of division of duties when it comes to assisting a resident on the spot. The team effort is genuine. I feel my dad is truly in the best possible place- it is his home away from home. I am confident he is in very good hands.

April 17, 2018Thank you so much for these kinds words of praise! We greatly appreciate it!
My dad and mom were both at Azura and I can not say enough good things about their care. My dad was there first and did is 2008. He was there first and died in 2008. He was well cared for at all times and there was always a wonderful amount of respect. My mom went to Azura in 2014 and again in 2015. She wasnone of a challenge for the staff but was always treated with love. I would recommend Azura to everyone.

April 17, 2018We truly cherished every moment we had with your Mom and Dad and you at Azura. Thank you for trusting us with them and helping us to provide them with the best care and compassion possible!! We are blessed to have been a part of the Morley family!
The medical staff at this facility was exceptional. Their care and concern could not have been better. The kitchen staff was very accommodating and the meals were excellent. The director was very informative and explained the procedures and policies so ask to be very helpful. The CNAs and aides were so caring and rated my husband better than I could have desired. Our experience was a wonderful one in spite of the very difficult life journey.

November 27, 2017Thank you for your kind words and support of Azura's Annual Memory Tree in honor and remembrance of those touched by dementia! We love what we do at Azura and are so blessed to know and be a part of families like yours!
Truly exceptional care. We could not have chosen a better place for my Dad. I had no idea the difference in care, but after he was bounced from many other places that said they did memory care it’s apparent that the Azura staff know their stuff! We are very, very happy and Dad is too. I can finally sleep at night and would recommend Azura to any one looking for this type of care. It’s extremely heartwarming to see all of the hugs and smiles there!

July 7, 2017Thank you so much for your kind words! We greatly appreciate the feedback and will share it with our EXCEPTIONAL Team too!
The staff at Azura in Eau Claire is the best I have encountered as I have travelled this journey with my mother. They are super-friendly and always engaging residents in conversation and activities. They brought my mother out of a very dark place and she has flourished socially. Unfortunately, the placement is still not the correct space for mom - she is functioning at a higher level mentally than most of her peers. That has made it a little hard for her to converse one-on-one with other residents for a prolonged time; this has been the only downside to Azura.

Response from Azura Memory Care of Eau Claire
March 2, 2017We are so glad that we have been able to help bring your Mom out of the dark and into the joyful moments we try to create at Azura. One concern that many families have is that their loved one may not get the interaction from other residents that they desire. However, with the disease process of dementia it is common for those who are losing cognition to pull away from those who function at a higher level, thus self-isolating themselves. At the same time those functioning at full cognition will ostracize those with dementia, because they don't understand the disease and get frustrated by their inappropriate responses or lack of response. This is why it is so important to have a high staffing ratio and to train your Team on ways to approach, communicate and engage those with dementia, which is what our specialized MOSAIC training and engagement system does. It provides our Team with the proper approach and communication techniques that bring out our residents and then engagement ideas to help spark conversations and activities with them and with other residents. Our philosophy is that unless a resident is napping or it is night sleep time, our residents are out with us. Seeing our smiles, engaging in fun and finding joy in every moment of their day. We treat our residents like family and stick with them throughout their disease process, so that when the day comes that your loved one can't carry on a conversation we are there to fill-in the blanks with their own personal life story that we know and treasure like our own.
My dad and mom lived at Azura and the experience was truly amazing! The caregivers are so well trained and compassionate they made all of us feel like family. We had originally put mom elsewhere, but it was quickly apparent they had no idea what Alzheimer's was and expected her to remember to take her medications and wouldn't do simple things like cut up her meat and allowed her to not eat. At Azura things were so different, the girls always introduced themselves when they spoke to her and spent time talking with her, holding her hands and event painting her nails. My dad can get gruff at times and they always found a way to make him smile and come out of his room. When we asked our doctor and others where to take them everyone said that Azura was the place, but my brother was worried because they don't have bathrooms in their rooms and that's why mom went some place else first. At that place she never came out of her room and within weeks they locked the door because she might fall or use it in appropriately. Needless to say we moved her and now she is always out of her room, smiling, singing, baking, doing exercises. When we really thought about it a person only spends like 30 - 45 minutes in the bathroom and maybe 8 - 10 asleep the other 13+ hours we wanted them to be surrounded by people who love them. That's what we found at Azura, people who love them and treat everyone like family. If I could I would live there!

February 15, 2017We are so blessed to count your family among ours at Azura Memory Care! Thank you for sharing your experience and for allowing us to assist you on this journey. It truly is an honor!
My family had a terrible, frustrating experience with Azura that I hope we can prevent someone else from going through. Our mother has late mid-stage Alzheimer’s and could no longer live safely at home. Azura accepted her but then from day one seemed baffled to outright annoyed by her Alzheimer’s behaviors. She is admittedly difficult to care for, but there was a lack of compassion and understanding throughout her stay. Azura seemed unprepared to deal with even basic things such as pacing, sleep difficulties and touching possessions of other residents. Few of the staff there seemed to know much about the disease or what behavior strategies to try when she became agitated or confused. The hardest thing was that my family would get phone calls that were akin to reporting ‘bad behavior.’ Our mother’s doctor expressed concern to us that the facility demonstrated a lack of understanding about the disease and told us their nurse repeatedly requested prescriptions that would have been contraindicated. With the help of her doctors, we were finally able to move her to a facility we think can meet her needs (and at a more reasonable monthly fee). I would not recommend this facility for your loved one with dementia (especially not in mid-stage). They disappointed us in so many ways and for the most part (with few staff people as exceptions) demonstrated concern for nothing but their payments.

Response from Azura Memory Care of Eau Claire
January 30, 2017Azura Memory Care of Eau Claire has over 20 years of experience in serving those with dementia and an exceptional reputation for being able to serve those in any stage of the disease process. We would never disparage a family who is struggling on this journey and recognize that not everyone is able to fully understand the world in which their loved one with memory loss lives. We provide enhanced dementia training to our caregivers through our exclusive MOSAIC program, which provides over 90 hours of hands-on learning to our team on approach, communication, engagement and holistic behavioral management techniques. In addition, we work with experts in the field of geriatrics and neurology to ensure the medical care of our residents is complete, even utilizing the cutting edge technology of Pharmacogenomic Testing (DNA Testing) to determine which medications will work best for those within our care and those with contraindications. When our expertise is utilized to help those within our care, we have great success and are looked at as a leader of memory care in the State. However, when that expertise is not welcomed and no interventions we suggest to the primary physician or family are used it is becomes difficult, especially when the behaviors are not as easily assisted as the ones this reviewer alluded to, but were inaccurate. In the State of Wisconsin altercations of aggression towards self and others in a Community-Based Residential Facility are mandated to be reported to the person's power of attorney. Unfortunately, based on the nature of the behavioral expressions exhibited numerous reports had to be made to family. Our goal with every resident is to continue to provide service and adjust care to meet their needs and we continued to do this, as we were permitted for more than 6 months of residency, with no request on our part to terminate the care we provided. The choice was made by family to move to another memory care home in our area, who then quickly terminated residency due to inability to manage needs. We only wish that we had been given the opportunity to use our expertise to truly assist and would appreciate being paid in full for the care we provided. Please know that it is only due to the multiple inaccuracies of this review that slander the true care and reputation of our organization that we post this response. Our goal first and foremost is to help families navigate this journey with compassion and understanding, while assisting their loved ones in creating a personalized MOSAIC of care that loves and supports them throughout their disease process to live, not just exist.
This looked like a clean community when we toured it. The staff were nice and they did have a calendar of daily activities. This community was just a little to expensive for us.
