Everyone from the staff to the other residents are great
We love it here our apt is nice and we have a full kitchen, but we also have the option of going to the dining room if we don't feel like cooking. We have great neighbors and the staff here are excellent. There are a lot of amenities for us to try out, as well as field trips should we want to go. We would like to thank A Place for Mom for helping us find our new home as well. We knew right away when we came on our tour that this was the place for us.

Beautiful rooms!
My aunt's stay at The Polonaise is going fine! The staff are sure to take good care of her. The food is great, and there are many activities for my aunt to participate in. We are also very pleased with her room, as it is a great size and layout. Though we have run into an issue or two since moving her in, things are going smoothly.

Horrible lease terms
Very pricey and lease terms are horrible. You have to pay for meals and services if you are hospitalized even though you are not receiving them. Same thing if you pass away for the remainder of your last month.

KEEP LOOKING
Not very impressed, seems they are going through changes in the management and staffing areas , understaffed, meals are not appealing to look at or eat. There is no dietitian at this time. Activities are sparse. Residents are worried at times , and fearful.

very welcoming and friendly
The people at The Polonaise at Wilson Commons have been very very welcoming and friendly. They go out of their way to deal with any of moms complaints and bend over backwards to help wherever they can.
My only complaint is that the garbage disposal in moms room has not been working for few weeks, and there is a little sludge buildup that has resulted. Mom does not remember not to use the sink or that it is on order, so that has created an inconvenience.
Other than that, the place is great.

My mom is very happy!
It's excellent. My mother is very happy there. She is moving to a bigger apartment with a balcony next week. Everything she wants and needs she has there, including her dog.
They do everything they can and really do go out of their way to keep everyone happy and give them what they want. They have shopping and little trips and things. We looked at some other places that were a little cheaper but I don't think they had the amenities that Wilson Commons does. If my mom needs help or has a question she's gotten her answer right away. They make sure everyone knows about the activites that are going on. They post them around and everyone gets a copy of what's happening for the month. They celebrate birthdays and have family days. My mom is very happy!

It Just Seemed Right
The main reason I chose The Chopin at Wilson Commons is that it's in the right area that I want to be in and it just seemed right. My sister and I are in the process of moving in right now so we don't have too much experience so far. They did tell us all about the stuff there like the church services and the bicycle room and and different events. The people seem friendly and the place is clean.

The Chopin (choppin) as an employee called it is an incredible facility. It's very large and beautiful with four floors in the main annex. They have storge bins in the basement. The one bedroom looks like all the others I have seen The downside is the rent; $575.00. It's wort it but I need to keep the rent down to $500.00

Tips for evaluating your community options
Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:
Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.
Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
Know the Wisconsin regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Wisconsin regulations for Assisted Living.
