Testimonials

After my surgery on July 2nd, 2014, I chose Lasata for my rehab and was deeply impressed by the staff's kindness and professionalism. While I'm not great with names and can't name everyone, I wanted to thank everyone involved in my care. From rehab to dining, the team's excellence reflects Lasata's commendable hiring and training. A fellow resident summed it up perfectly, saying, "I consider this my home and everyone here as my family." Choosing Lasata was the right decision, and I'm grateful for the outstanding care and rehab during my stay.

Please pass on to the nursing staff how grateful we are for their attention to detail. When our mom is not feeling well, they pick up on it through their daily observation of her. If she doesn't walk past the nurse's station at her usual pace or with a positive comment, they are quick to check in on her, and don't hesitate to call me if there is something of note. It gives my sister and me peace of mind to know she is being cared for so well. All the efforts that the Lasata staff puts forth are greatly appreciated.

"My mother has been in your wonderful facility for almost three weeks now. We briefly met a couple weeks ago when I was visiting from California. I appreciate you taking the time to visit with me and explain her situation. I cannot thank you enough for getting my mother to Lasata and making this transition for her so seamless, considering the nature of her stroke. As you may imagine, it can be challenging for the immediate family to cope with a significant change in her physical health. Being so far from Wisconsin my mind was filled with the horrors of a nursing home and the care she might be given. My worst nightmares were put to rest as soon as I entered in your care facility. From the rehab staff to the nursing personal even down to the receptionist; I can rest easier at night knowing my mother is in such wonderful care!”

Lasata FAQs

What is skilled care?

Skilled care is defined as care that requires the services of a trained nurse. This might include injections, tube feedings, IV therapy, or rehabilitation. Skilled care provides 24-hour medical care and rehabilitation to make the transition from the hospital to home more accessible. Whether recovering from an illness or surgery or needing long-term care, skilled care centers offer privacy and peace of mind.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living is for those who require more help with the activities of daily living but do not need nursing care. Friendly, trained staff members are available 24 hours daily to help with meals, dressing, personal hygiene, and medications.

What is independent living?

Independent living has been designed to support complete, comfortable lifestyles for active people who can take care of themselves. It provides necessary services that free you from heavy housekeeping, yard work, and maintenance chores.

What is long-term care?

Long-term care is any care a person needs, whether at home or in a facility such as a nursing home or an assisted living community.

What does supplemental or long-term care insurance cover?

Insurance coverage is available to cover certain costs of nursing facility care. Some plans will supplement Medicare or Medicaid coverage and cover expenses beyond what these plans cover. Others pay for a portion of the daily cost for a set amount of days in a nursing facility. If you or your family member has such insurance coverage, bring a copy of the policy to the attention of the nursing facility. You can then work with the administrative staff to discuss how they want to file claims for the best benefits.

What if I am a Veteran?

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) provides care in its facilities to veterans needing skilled or intermediate nursing care. The VA also offers professional and intermediate care to veterans through contracts with community nursing homes.

How do you apply for Medicaid?

Contact your local Department of Welfare or the Department of Health for an application. Because Medicaid is based on financial need, you must provide extensive information on your income, assets, and savings.

Who is eligible for Medicaid?

It would help if you met a state-determined poverty level and specific health criteria.
Medicaid is also the primary payer of services for persons with Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities.

What does it cover?

For qualifying individuals, Medicaid pays for nursing facility services in a certified skilled or non-skilled facility.
In many states, Medicaid will pay for assisted living services, although coverage is limited.
