Autumn Bay of Pewaukee is an assisted living facility located in Pewaukee, Wisconsin, offering specialized care for seniors who require daily assistance and medical supervision. In addition to standard assisted living, it is equipped to deliver nursing home-level services, accommodating residents who may have higher care needs. The community’s primary focus is on providing support with activities of daily living, including full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Medication management is available, and personalized care plans are developed to address each individual’s requirements.
Autumn Bay of Pewaukee is structured as a memory care only facility, tailored specifically to support residents experiencing memory loss, including those with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease. The environment is designed for safety and comfort, featuring secured areas and layouts intended to accommodate the challenges of memory impairment. Medical support includes comprehensive memory care, ambulatory care, and incontinence care, as well as diabetes management, podiatry services, and support for residents with psychiatric concerns. The staff are trained to assist residents with behavioral and medical complexities, and the setting is secure to help ensure resident well-being.
The facility also aims to foster a home-like and quiet atmosphere, offering amenities such as communal dining, personal grooming assistance, and opportunities for crafts and other activities—although reviews indicate variation in the consistency and availability of these activities, particularly during off-peak hours. Residents and families have noted positive aspects such as attentive caregiving, clean and well-maintained surroundings, and a smaller community size that can lend itself to more individualized attention.
However, family and resident reviews reflect polarized experiences regarding care quality and management. Some report a compassionate, responsive care staff and an environment that feels safe and comfortable. Others raise ongoing concerns about the implementation of visitation policies—specifically restrictions that have resulted in limited contact during critical periods such as hospice—and cite challenges with communication from management, staff turnover, and care plan transparency. There are also accounts of unprofessional administrative conduct, delays in addressing medical issues, and insufficient staffing, which have led to inconsistent delivery of care and distress for some families. While certain families value their relationships with individual caregivers, there remain widespread calls for improvements in oversight, management responsiveness, and communication.
