Assisted living is for someone who is largely independent but needs a reliable hand with the everyday things — bathing, dressing, medications, meals, getting to appointments. In Wisconsin, most communities marketed as “assisted living” are licensed as a Community-Based Residential Facility (CBRF), for five or more unrelated adults receiving room, board, supervision and up to three hours of nursing care a week, or as a Residential Care Apartment Complex (RCAC), which provides private apartments and can deliver up to 28 hours a week of supportive care — a materially higher care ceiling than a CBRF.

What to watch for with assisted living near Historic Concordia
- Ask which services are included in the base rate versus billed as a separate care level.
- Ask whether the community accepts Family Care or IRIS, Wisconsin's two Medicaid long-term-care programs, and how many current residents use one of them — room and board is generally not covered by either, even when care services are.

Before you sign anything
Get the all-in monthly cost in writing at your parent's current assessed care level, ask what triggers the next care level and what it costs, and ask for the rate increase history across the last three years. Communities that will not put these in writing are telling you something.
Ask what happens if private funds run out, and whether the community holds a Medicaid waiver provider agreement. A meaningful share of communities do not, which means a second move at the worst possible time.
