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.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care 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.

Does Wisconsin Medicaid cover memory care?

Wisconsin Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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 memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 333 memory care communities in Wisconsin. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community 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 memory care communities 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.
