Overview of Saint Johns on the Lake Central Tower

Saint Johns on the Lake Central Tower offers nursing home and skilled nursing care, assisted living, independent living, and memory care in Milwaukee, WI. Independent living provides a private home with community services and no daily care, while assisted living adds help with bathing, dressing, and medications. Memory care is secured and supervised for someone at risk of wandering. Skilled nursing includes licensed nursing care on site around the clock.

The range of care levels may suit a resident whose needs could grow over time without requiring a move to another community. The community has 110 beds, with 73% currently occupied. Total nurse staffing is 5 hours and 57 minutes per resident per day, representing the daily nursing time allocated to each resident.

Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted. Medicare can cover short term skilled care after a hospital stay, while Medicaid may help when savings do not cover a long stay. Residents can use a fitness center, landscaped gardens, a wellness program, cultural offerings, arts, clubs, and sports, supporting exercise, outdoor time, and organized interests within the community. Rehabilitation services are also available, giving residents access to therapy through the community’s services. Saint Johns Communities operates Saint Johns on the Lake Central Tower, and its walk score of 87 means most errands are possible on foot for a resident who no longer drives.
