Overview of The Classic at Hillcrest Greens Memory Care

The Classic at Hillcrest Greens Memory Care is a specialized memory care community managed by The Classic at Hillcrest Greens LLC in Altoona, Wisconsin, within Eau Claire County. Licensed in July 2016, this 40-bed community has nearly a decade of dedicated experience supporting residents living with Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, while functioning as part of a larger senior living campus that provides independent living and assisted living options alongside its memory care services.

As a focused memory care community, its services and amenities are tailored to meet the specific cognitive, environmental, and social requirements of memory-impaired residents. Along with memory care, the community’s programming also supports independent living transitions and assisted living. This structure allows families to plan for a progression of care over time under one roof.

Managed by a private LLC and serving Eau Claire County as a Class CNA non-ambulatory Community-Based Residential Care Facility, the community’s location near the Altoona city center provides easy access for those in the greater Eau Claire metro area.

The Classic at Hillcrest Greens Memory Care is ideally suited for those in the moderate to advanced stages of Alzheimer’s or dementia who require a secure, purpose-built environment with memory care-trained staff. The campus-style layout also provides a practical long-term solution for couples or families who may need different levels of support at the same time but prefer to stay in one place.
