Overview of Cornerstone of Oak Creek

Cornerstone of Oak Creek is a 36-apartment assisted living community in Milwaukee County, located in the south suburban area of Oak Creek, Wisconsin. Operated by NOHC-Oak Creek Senior Living LLC since 2019, the community’s smaller scale supports closer relationships between staff and residents.

The facility maintains full occupancy across its apartments. Daily care is supported by 24-hour staffing, an on-site registered nurse, medication administration, and short-term respite options. Residents have access to in-room emergency call systems, personal safety pendants, and freshly prepared daily meals. The neighborhood has a Walk Score of 29, meaning most daily errands require a vehicle, though local medical facilities and amenities remain within driving distance.

Unannounced surveys by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services, Division of Quality Assurance, focus primarily on administrative and documentation practices, such as completing resident risk agreements and responding to grievances, rather than direct hands-on care.

Families looking for a smaller occupied assisted living community in south suburban Milwaukee can schedule a visit to evaluate the residence.

Overview of Homme Residential Wittenberg

Independent Living Plus is a named program at Homme Residential Wittenberg, sitting between full independence and hands-on help. Independent living itself means private quarters with community services attached and nobody setting a resident’s schedule. Assisted living picks up bathing, dressing, and medication when those stop going smoothly.

Adult day care serves someone who lives somewhere else entirely. Often that is a household where the working adult cannot leave a parent alone between eight and six, and the day has to be covered without anyone moving out.

Because independent and assisted living share the Wittenberg, Wisconsin, building, needs can grow without a second search. Seventy-five beds sit under the license, 31 of them occupied at the last count.

Rehabilitation services and the Rehab/Recovery program handle the recovery side. A walk score of 45 puts this in car-dependent territory, so errands mean a ride. Homme Home For The Aging operates the community.

Overview of Cedar Crest Assisted Living

Cedar Crest Assisted Living offers independent living, assisted living, memory care, nursing home care, and skilled nursing in Janesville, WI. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication while a resident keeps an apartment. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision, while nursing home care and skilled nursing provide licensed nursing care on site around the clock.

Independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care. The range of care types may be a good fit for someone whose needs may grow over time and who may want to remain in one community. Respite care provides a short stay for a resident while a usual caregiver travels or recovers.

Cedar Crest Assisted Living opened in 1963 and has 68 beds. Studio and one-bedroom units are available, with a studio providing one private living space and a one-bedroom unit separating the sleeping and living areas. Medicare is accepted for short-term skilled care after a hospital stay rather than for long-term residence.

Residents may keep pets, and David Tanck serves as the director. The community is faith-based, with a chapel and religious services available for on-site participation in faith practices. A therapy and wellness center, rehabilitation services, gardens, walking trails, a salon, and fitness classes give residents access to therapy, outdoor areas, personal grooming, and structured exercise on the property.

Three chef-prepared meals and snacks are served daily, so residents have prepared food available as part of the community’s dining routine.

Overview of Stoughton Meadows Assisted Living

Stoughton Meadows Assisted Living offers assisted living, memory care, and respite care in Stoughton, WI. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident maintains a private living space. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, while respite care offers a short stay when a usual caregiver needs to travel or recover.

Having several care types in one community can suit a resident whose needs grow over time, since a move to another care level may not require leaving the community. The community has 45 beds, a smaller size that may suit someone who prefers a setting where staff and residents can become familiar with one another. Pets are allowed, so a resident may be able to keep a pet while living there.

Gardens and walking paths provide outdoor areas for residents to spend time outside, and a salon is available for personal grooming without arranging a separate salon visit. Chef-prepared meals provide daily dining prepared by the community, while rehabilitation services support residents who need rehabilitation care. Transportation is also available for community trips.

A Walk Score of 78 means the area is very walkable, with most errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives can still reach nearby destinations independently. Stoughton Senior Living operates the community.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Wisconsin

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Wisconsin?

Assisted living in Wisconsin supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Wisconsin?

Assisted living in Wisconsin is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Wisconsin Medicaid cover assisted living?

Wisconsin Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Wisconsin) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 428 assisted living facilities in Wisconsin. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Wisconsin?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Wisconsin, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Wisconsin?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
