Overview of Preferred Senior Living of Ellsworth

Facebook

Preferred Senior Living of Ellsworth is a licensed assisted living and memoryc are community administered by Preferred Senior Living LLC in Ellsworth, Wisconsin, offering care for those with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia, and personal care since its licensing in November 2015. With over a decade of operational experience in Pierce County, the community has 43 licensed beds in various private one-bedroom and studio apartment layouts. The community also aims to provide a residential, home-like setting, along with 24-hour staffing and a strong occupancy rate.

Serving 39 residents with a 43-bed capacity, the community has approximately 91% occupancy, which is higher than the Wisconsin state average. With strong demand, availability may be limited, so families are recommended to reach out early for openings and waitlist options.

The community has two inspections on record, consisting of one routine survey and one other visit, with the most recent follow-up inspection in October 2024, which concluded with no deficiencies, significantly below Wisconsin’s 12-deficiency state average. For a 10-year-old community, 3 deficiencies on record and no complaint-initiated inspections are good indicators of its compliance history and care quality.

Along with assisted living and specialized memory care, round-the-clock staffing is also offered. The community also focuses on residents’ individual space and dignity, as reflected in its apartment-style accommodations, including private one-bedroom and studio units. With a decade of history in Ellsworth, the community has established its identity and has built trust and familiarity in the locality. The administrative office also operates from Monday through Friday, from 8 A.M. to 5 P.M. CST.

Preferred Senior Living of Ellsworth has a strong occupancy, a clean inspection history, and different levels of care in a small, established setting, making it a good option for older adults in western Wisconsin who prefer a more intimate environment. The community’s 10-year operation in Pierce County and the greater River Falls-Ellsworth corridor has built trust and familiarity, which makes it a credible option in the region. With assisted living and memory care under one roof, older adults can also age in place, even when their needs progress.
