Overview of The Lutheran Home Adult Day Services

The Lutheran Home Adult Day Services provides assisted living, adult day care, and memory care in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication, while a resident maintains a private living space. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision, and adult day care offers daytime support for people with dementia, advanced age, or physical disabilities.

The home has 50 beds. Medicaid is accepted, giving eligible participants a public payment option for covered care. Respite care is available for short stays, which can give a family caregiver time to travel or recover. Short stays can make a difference when regular support is temporarily unavailable.

Participants can take part in baking, brain fitness, and field trips, with adult day services, intergenerational programming, and child care also offered. Spa bathing and a beauty/barber shop provide personal bathing and grooming services, while therapy and rehabilitation services support work related to mobility or daily function. The community is operated by Lutheran Home (The), and a doctor is on staff. An 83 / 100 Walk Score places the area in the very walkable band, meaning most errands can be completed on foot and a resident who no longer drives may still reach nearby shops, pharmacies, or cafes independently. The combination of daytime services, assisted living, memory care, and respite care may be a good fit for a family seeking support for someone with dementia, advanced age, or a physical disability, including when the usual caregiver needs a short break.
