Overview of The Courtyard at Fitchburg – Memory Care

The Courtyard at Fitchburg, Memory Care offers assisted living, independent living, memory care, and respite care in Fitchburg, WI. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication, while independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care. Memory care takes place in a secured setting with supervision, and respite care provides a short stay when a usual caregiver needs time to travel or recover.

The combination of care types may be a good fit for a resident whose needs grow over time without requiring a move to another community. There are 36 beds. That smaller scale gives residents and staff the chance to get to know each other. Pets are allowed, so residents may be able to continue living with their pets.

The garden patio has raised planters and a walking path, giving residents an outdoor place to garden or walk. Rehabilitation services take place within the community, so therapy does not require outside travel. A beauty salon and spa or bathtique also provide salon and spa services on site. Fitchburg Assisted Living operates the community.

A Walk Score of 57 places the area in the somewhat walkable band, meaning some errands can be done on foot. A resident who no longer drives may be able to complete some nearby errands independently.
