In both our Assisted Living and Skilled Nursing apartments, our staff is specially trained to support residents who are experiencing Alzheimer’s or other forms of memory loss, and our services and programs are tailored to ensure comfort, dignity, security and enrichment.

Memory care at Milwaukee Catholic Home means safety, security, a supportive community, and a life enriched by the social, spiritual, and recreational experiences that make life meaningful.
We believe residents with long-term and memory care needs deserve a rich and robust living situation, one that’s happy, healthy and accommodating of special situations. That belief prompts us to provide a quality long-term care environment that allows aging in community, surrounded by the people and experiences that make life meaningful. At the same time, our private rooms, community spaces, meals, activities and overall quality of life respect individuality, maintain dignity and allow for as much independence as possible.

They just take old sick people in and charge top dollar to avoid doing any caretaking. If you ask for help or complain they call the race card and threaten you. Avoid at all costs. The nurse staff have certification from 30 years ago and have no skill in modern caretaking or health of other humans. I would not take my dog here to be watched. We need to visit almost all day to take care of sick loved one as the staff does the absolute minimum

This has been a wonderful home and caring community for mother going on 12 years now. Life in independent living was very good with the apartment itself and amenities and services. And now in the assisted living side she is well cared for, and well supported. We live in another state and have great peace of mind with her here. Mom says she feels safe and she feels loved.

I wouldn't recommend sending any of my loved ones here even if was the last place on earth. They use old batteries on the machine lifts and the wrong colored batteries on the lifts. Many residents has either fallen from these machines due to lack of batteries or even stuck in the air for 30+minutes. There have been many infestations of bed bugs on 3east on numerous of separate occasions. They wouldn't do much to the rooms but spray bug spray and continue on with there day. Half of the staff is always high on the job but the supervisors don't care cause they are very short of staff and the need the bodies so they'll put the residents last and take who they can get. Food from the kitchen sometimes is raw and when you take it to the kitchen so the can remake the food it's always met with an attitude. The people that they hire could care less about the job all the employees are only there for one thing which is a paycheck. There were a few residents that turned up with mysterious bruises and no one knew what happened, no proper investigations were done and no faced consequences. The whole facility is a joke. I wouldn't trust these people with a piece of paper.
