Ascension Living Alexian Village – Milwaukee
Ascension Living Alexian Village has been part of Milwaukee’s senior care landscape for 46 years now, sitting at 9301 North 76th Street on the city’s north side. It’s a car-dependent stretch of town, with a Walk Score of 24, so most errands and outings mean getting in a car rather than walking them.
The building itself is a mid-rise with 108 beds, split across one-, two-, and three-bedroom options. 78 of those beds are filled, which puts occupancy around 72 percent. Average length of stay runs about 71 days, which tells you something useful: this isn’t purely a long-term residence; there’s a real rehabilitation and short-stay population moving through alongside people settling in for longer.
On-site rehab services mean residents recovering from surgery or illness don’t have to leave the building for therapy. Nursing coverage runs throughout the day too, with registered nurses, LPNs, and nurse aides each putting in dedicated time per resident rather than being spread thin across shifts.
Amenity-wise, it’s understated but real: a library, a spa, and a patio. Nothing flashy, just spaces that give residents somewhere quiet to read, unwind, or sit outside. Medicare and private pay are both accepted, which covers a reasonably wide range of financial situations.
When state inspectors have looked at this community, their focus has tended to land on infection control, how well care gets documented, food and dietary service, resident rights, and fall prevention, the same areas regulators tend to scrutinize at long-term care communities generally.
What Alexian Village adds up to is a long-tenured, mid-sized community built around active rehabilitation and steady daily nursing support, more functional than showy, but functional in the ways that actually matter for recovery and daily care.

Headcount
84.1% of staff hours were worked by the facility's own employees
Wisconsin average: 88.1% · Contractors this quarter: Certified Nursing Assistant (100), Registered Nurse (62), Licensed Practical Nurse (15), Respiratory Therapy Technician (12), Physical Therapy Aide (8), Physical Therapy Assistant (6), Speech Language Pathologist (4), Qualified Social Worker (1)
Why it matters: employees work here week after week and get to know each resident's routines and needs. Agency contractors often rotate between facilities, so a higher employee share usually means more consistent care.
