Heritage at Oakwood Hills in Eau Claire, WI
4.9

Everything is a 5, except for maybe the meals, 4 since they lost their long time chef (still really good in comparison to the other 2 places they've been in!). The staff is lovely, the place is super clean (I think it's the only place in town with no current Covid outbreak!). They have been wonderful helping my Dad adjust. Lots of activities if one chooses. I would highly recommend Heritage to anyone!

Our House Senior Living Memory Care - Chippewa Falls
5.0

They seem to be doing a pretty good job. The staff is pretty attentive, and they keep it clean. She is getting very good care, and a lot of attention. I don't get complaints about food, and when we go in it smells good. It's still pretty new, but so far, it's working out.

Caretta Senior Living Holmen
5.0

When we came in, we were impressed by the appearance. It was welcoming and very appealing. The staff was very welcome benefit. They were at first, and still are very approachable and friendly. Our needs are met and, as I like to tell others, we are spoiled Rotten- What a blessing.
