OUR SERVICES
Notre Dame du Lac Assisted Living Community
Our mission remains deeply committed to that of Saint Julie Billiart, founder of the order of Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur. Notre Dame du Lac feels like a true home filled with friends, comfort, safety and love, thanks to the caring staff, lush grounds, unique and tastefully designed apartments, exceptional cuisine, and wide array of social activities.
The Harmony Memory Care program at Notre Dame du Lac is designed to meet the unique needs of those experiencing memory loss, Alzheimer’s, or other forms of dementia.
We provide not only a comfortable, home-like setting, but the supportive care necessary to ensure our residents’ safety, dignity, and quality of life. We strive to make all feel sustained every day in a nurturing and protected environment.
With 24 apartments, 22 private studios and 2 shared apartments, a separate dining room flanked by an inviting fireplace and wall of windows, a small prayer chapel, private courtyard and activity room, Harmony residents enjoy the same amenities as the larger community residence and are also invited to participate in all activities held at du Lac.
