Overview of Schmitt Woodland Hills

Schmitt Woodland Hills offers nursing home, skilled nursing, assisted living, independent living, and palliative care in Richland Center, WI. Independent living and assisted living apartments provide private residences, while assisted living adds help with daily tasks. Nursing home and skilled nursing care provide licensed nursing care on site around the clock, and palliative care focuses on comfort and symptom support for residents with serious illness.

The community opened in 1965 and has 50 beds. Its smaller size gives staff and residents more opportunity to get to know each other. Rehabilitation is available through the Rehab & Therapy Care program, so residents can receive therapy as part of their care.

Independent living, assisted living, and nursing care form a continuum that may suit a resident whose needs grow over time and who may be able to change care levels without leaving the community. As a Christian residential retirement community, Schmitt Woodland Hills may also suit someone seeking that type of setting.

Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted, giving families several ways to cover eligible care. Total nurse staffing is 5 hours and 33 minutes per resident per day, representing the daily hands-on nursing time allocated per resident. The area has a Walk Score of 70 and is very walkable, so most errands can be done on foot and a resident who no longer drives can still get out independently. Addison Platt serves as the administrator.
