Overview of Home Again Assisted Living Cambridge

Eleven years in, Home Again Assisted Living Cambridge is a 47-bed community on England Street in Cambridge, Wisconsin, doing two things at once: assisted living and memory care under one roof. That dual scope matters. Families facing cognitive decline alongside other care needs don’t always have the luxury of separating those conversations, and a community set up to handle both removes one logistical problem from a complicated situation.

The building is two stories. Thirty-six of 47 beds are currently occupied, a 77% fill rate that leaves a reasonable margin before the place is at capacity. Room configurations run from efficiency units to deluxe one-bedrooms, with semi-private options for families watching costs closely. Monthly rates span $2,500 to $9,500, a wide band that probably reflects variation in room type and care intensity rather than a single flat rate.

Staffing runs around the clock, with nursing services on-site. Lauren Loofboro, LPN, holds the Executive Community Director role and brings over 17 years of clinical healthcare experience. She works directly with residents and their care teams on individualized care plans, which is the kind of leadership structure that tends to produce more consistent outcomes than a facility where clinical and administrative functions operate in parallel. Home Again Assisted Living Inc operates the community.

Daily life runs on chef-prepared meals, a routine activity calendar (BINGO, movie nights, exercise), salon access, and a secured building with individual climate control and transportation services. The neighborhood earns a Walk Score of 49, which puts it in the “somewhat walkable” range, though most outings will require the community’s transportation or a personal vehicle. State inspections have tended to focus on fire-safety systems, staffing and staff credentials, and care planning and documentation.

For families managing both cognitive decline and broader care needs, Home Again’s combined memory care and assisted living model means residents can age through different levels of need without a disruptive transition to a new facility.
