Overview of St. Rita Square

St. Rita Square sits in Milwaukee’s Lower East Side, at 728 East Pleasant Street, and covers a wider range of care than a lot of communities do in one building. Independent living, assisted living, and memory care all live under the same roof here, and the population reflects that: residents range from advanced-aged folks who just want support with daily life to people managing physical disabilities or dementia.

The building itself is a 22-unit mid-rise, with one- and two-bedroom layouts running from 744 to 1,487 square feet. Right now, about half the units are filled, ten out of twenty-two. Rent runs month-to-month, so there’s no big endowment fee sitting between a family and a decision. Monthly rates land somewhere between $5,260 and $12,785, depending on the unit and level of care needed.

On the amenity side, there’s a spa, a salon, a fitness studio, and an outdoor piazza, plus a wood-fired pizza trattoria and restaurant-style dining that goes a step past the usual cafeteria setup. Scheduled transportation and clean air systems round things out. Pets are welcome too, so that’s not a tradeoff residents have to make.

A Walk Score of 94 puts the neighborhood in the “Walker’s Paradise” range, meaning groceries, errands, and day-to-day stops are mostly doable on foot, with downtown Milwaukee less than a mile away.

Chiara Housing and Services Inc is the legal operator, Glenwood Choban administers the community, and Samantha Jemison holds a leadership role on-site. This is a newer property, still building its track record, but what it offers right now is a full spectrum of care, real dining, and a location most people would call genuinely walkable.

Structured social engagement programs give residents regular opportunities to participate in group activities. A walk score of 45 places the property in a car-dependent location, so residents who do not drive will rely on transportation for off-site trips and errands.

Prospective families can contact the community to request detailed pricing, ask questions, or request a tour of the facility.

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.
