Overview of Ascension Living Lakeshore at Siena

Ascension Living Lakeshore at Siena is a 36-bed skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and memory care community at 5643 Erie Street in Racine, Wisconsin, operated by Ascension Living Lakeshore at Siena Inc, a nonprofit within the Ascension Health system. The facility accepts Medicare and private pay, operates with 24-hour staffing, and has been licensed since December 2020. CMS rates the facility 1 star overall, with health inspection and quality measures both substantially below Wisconsin averages. State DHS surveys since 2022 recorded 6 total deficiencies — 50% below the Wisconsin average of 12. The trajectory has improved: 5 deficiencies and 2 substantiated complaints in May 2024; 1 deficiency in May 2025; and 0 deficiencies in November 2025. A 19-day CMS payment denial issued in September 2024 — a federal enforcement action suspending Medicare and Medicaid payments for new admissions — and a $500 Wisconsin DHS forfeiture from the May 2024 survey are the most significant enforcement actions on record. Quality Measures are the primary clinical concern. Long-stay weight loss is 151% above the Wisconsin average, and falls with major injury for long-stay residents are 109% above the state average. Short-stay falls with major injury are 248% above the Wisconsin benchmark — the single most elevated figure in the facility’s quality measure profile. Total nurse staffing averages 3 hours and 47 minutes per resident per day, roughly 11% below the Wisconsin average, with 44% of nursing hours contractor-supplied in Q4 2025. Rehabilitation services and skilled nursing are the facility’s core offerings, supported by on-site physical therapy and memory care programming. Active resident and family councils are in place. With a 67-day average length of stay and a payer mix weighted toward Medicare and private pay, Ascension Living Lakeshore is structured for short-term post-acute stays in Racine County. Families considering placement should review the facility’s inspection trend, particularly around falls and long-stay outcomes.

Registered Nurse (RN) Info RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes. 52m per day ▼ 10% State avg: 58m per day · National avg: 41m per day
LPN / LVN Info Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care. 1h 23m per day ▲ 119% State avg: 38m per day · National avg: 52m per day
Nurse Aide Info Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility.
