Dayton Care Center

Overview of Dayton Care Center

Dayton Care Center is an assisted living community in Kenosha, WI, where residents can receive help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while living in a private room. The center opened in 1925 and has 90 beds. Because Dayton Care Center primarily serves U.S. veterans, it may suit a veteran who needs assisted living with licensed nursing support.

Programs include domestic assistance, licensed nursing, and volunteer opportunities, covering household help, nursing care, and ways to volunteer. Dayton Care Operations operates the community.

Transportation services are available, allowing residents to use a community-arranged option for trips instead of handling every ride themselves. The kitchen also offers meals off-site a couple of times per month, giving residents an opportunity to dine away from the community.
