Overview of Prairie Home

Prairie Home is an assisted living and memory care community, operated by Bethany St. Joseph Corporation in Holmen, Wisconsin, since October 2006. The community is one of the smaller senior care communities in the region, with 30 licensed beds, providing older adults with a favorable staff-to-resident ratio and a more individualized approach to care, particularly for those with Alzheimer’s and dementia.

The community has a strong demand, as suggested by its full occupancy with all 30 beds occupied, which translates to an approximately 100% occupancy rate. With its high demand, families are encouraged to reach out early to confirm openings. The Wisconsin Department of Health Services, Division of Quality Assurance, also conducted a complaint-initiated inspection in December 2023 and cited zero violations. Notably, complaint-initiated surveys usually involve more focused scrutiny than routine inspections; hence, a clean result reflects good standards and compliance.

Focusing on those with Alzheimer’s and dementia, the community features a staff consisting of CNA- or RA- certified personnel who provide 24/7 care. The community also offers health promotion and exercise programs, social and recreational activities, spiritual care and ministry services, and beauty and barber services, along with homemade meals and snacks. With rehabilitation and respite services, the community also appeals to those seeking short-term care. Promoting an active lifestyle, the community has a 14-hour activity window that encompasses arts and crafts, puzzles, games, and exercise. The community’s amenities stand out with its focused, care-forward environment, which appeals to families seeking a balance of lifestyle and care. However, the community does not accept Medicare, making private pay or Medicaid the only feasible funding option.

With its dedicated memory care program in an intimate, relationship-centered setting and assisted living support, Prairie Home is an ideal choice for those who require specialized dementia care but prefer a community-rooted atmosphere in the Holmen and greater La Crosse area.
