Waterford Place
Waterford Place is a licensed senior care community directly operated by Waterford Assisted Living in Waterford, Wisconsin, offering assisted living, memory care, and respite services to Racine County since its licensing in July 2023. As one of the newer assisted living options in southwestern Wisconsin, the community brings a modern approach to care and programming, which corresponds to the region’s increasing demand for senior care. Serving 48 residents per day with a 57-bed capacity, the community currently operates at approximately 84%, which reflects a consistent and sustained demand while providing availability for interested older adults and families.
Since its opening, the community has undergone 7 inspections from the Wisconsin Department of Health Services, Division of Quality Assurance, including 5 complaint investigations and 2 routine inspections. Among those investigations, four concluded without findings, and three identified issues, accumulating a total of 10 deficiencies.

A variety of menu selections and nutritious snacks are also available, along with three meals daily. Another service that makes the community stand out is the availability of a dedicated support group for family members of aging loved ones, a rare and thoughtful program that provides light to the emotional demands placed on family members who take charge of senior care decisions.
Waterford Place offers a solid amenity foundation and active family engagement programming, which best suits those seeking assisted living support or specialized memory care but prefer a more intimate setting. With a 57-bed capacity, the community is large enough for more social interactions but intimate enough for more personalized care. Those seeking short-term care or temporary stay may also find the community’s respite services appealing, which allows them to explore options before committing to long-term placement.
