“My Dad's long-term care is so amazingly exemplary that we constantly tell people about how blessed we are that he is a resident here! The responsiveness of staff (nurses and aides alike) is outstanding; his every need is lovingly cared for. He enjoys the comfort and routine of his home at Wissota Health. The care conferences are truly "care" conferences. I am patched in by phone to each and every one of them, and the staff is always cheerful about making this extra step to have Dad's family included in the quarterly updates.”
