Overview of Franciscan Shore
Franciscan Shore is an assisted living community in St. Francis, Wisconsin, offering on-site nursing support and access to chronic medical management for older adults who need different levels of care. The community was licensed with 48 beds in April 2024, providing older adults in Milwaukee County a balance of individualized care and access to a community-oriented lifestyle.

With a mission rooted in the Franciscan tradition of outreach and service, the community consistently provides person-centered care. The community also follows a holistic framework dedicated to the seven dimensions of wellness. Additionally, a well-structured lifestyle program is provided, encompassing recreational activities, dining, and visitor policy. As a Catholic community, it also adheres to a faith-centered atmosphere, appealing to those seeking a religiously leaning community. To meet different levels of care beyond assisted living support, on-site nursing staff is also available, along with access to chronic medical management.
Combining its Catholic Franciscan identity, holistic wellness framework, and a person-centered approach to care, Franciscan Shore is an ideal choice for those seeking a faith-based environment and a mission-driven team. While the community has only been in the early phase of operation, its well-defined values and comprehensive programming help solidify its identity among other similar-sized communities in the area.
