What does the care continuum at du Lac Assisted Living look like?

At du Lac Assisted Living, we are able to provide two levels of care within our community. We offer Traditional Assisted Living apartments as well as our Harmony Memory Care Neighborhood. Additionally, we are on the same campus as Notre Dame Long Term Care and Rehabilitation Center which has its own Harmony Village. This allows our residents to utilize multiple levels of care without having to leave the Notre Dame Health Care family.

If someone is hospitalized, their apartment is still their personal living space. After 14 days, a meal credit starts to apply to their account.

Are there options to downsize or change apartments?

Yes, depending on apartment availability.

What type of communication do you have for families?

We pride ourselves on our communication with families. We connect with family members via phone, email, and mailings. You can also find updates in our For Residents & Families area, and on our very active Facebook page, so check those often to stay up to date with what is going on throughout the organization, and keep an eye out for photos of your loved one taking part in our numerous activities.

How do you handle mail and deliveries?

Every resident is assigned a mailbox when they move in. USPS delivers mail here 6 days a week (excluding holidays). Residents can then retrieve their mail from their assigned mailbox. Additionally, any packages that arrive for residents are delivered to their room.

What types of things should new residents bring when moving in?

The best to answer this is to look at it as though you are moving into your own apartment in the community. You would be responsible for all furnishings, paper goods, toiletries, décor, etc.

No. Notre Dame du Lac welcomes all individuals regardless of religion, race, sexual orientation, or gender.
