HeatherWood Assisted Living and Memory Care in Eau Claire, WI
5.0
Recently my mother passed away. Her time at Heatherwood was only 4 months. During her stay her care was exceptional. The staff went over and above in her care. The management were so easy to work with. They made us all feel "at home." Would definitely recommend.
Oak Gardens Place in Altoona, WI
4.5
Value. Better pricing. Smaller facility But that's fine because my brother tends to keep to himself anyway so no need for a larger facility with more people as far as he is concerned.
Comforts of Home - Chippewa Falls
4.5
I recently moved my mother to Comforts of Home Assisted Living - Riverside. She is very happy there. She receives just the right amount of services, yet is encouraged to remain as independent as she possibly can.
