Parkside Assisted Living
Parkside Assisted Living sits in DeForest, Wisconsin. The neighborhood earns a walk score of 71, which puts it in the “very walkable” range. For someone who has given up driving, that can make a real difference. It means a trip to the pharmacy or a stop at a café can be done on foot, without needing to ask for a ride.
The community itself is small, with 40 beds. It provides assisted living, which covers the everyday supports with help with dressing, bathing, and taking medication for residents who need regular assistance but not the constant presence of skilled nursing. Encore Wisconsin operates Parkside.
