Frequently Asked Questions

+
What is skilled nursing care and how does it differ from assisted living? +

Skilled nursing care provides 24-hour medically supervised services for individuals with complex health conditions or those recovering from a hospitalization, surgery, or illness. Unlike assisted living — which focuses on daily living support for relatively independent seniors — skilled nursing involves licensed clinical staff, medical oversight, wound care, IV therapy, and rehabilitation services such as physical, occupational, and speech therapy.

What does it mean that Lasata Care Center is county-operated? +

Lasata Care Center is managed by Ozaukee County government, meaning it operates under public oversight, is subject to county budget processes, and is accountable to the local community through elected officials. Many families find county-operated facilities reassuring because they are mission-driven rather than profit-driven, with a mandate to serve the needs of county residents.

What hospitals are near Lasata Care Center in Cedarburg? +

Aurora Medical Center in Grafton is the closest major hospital, located approximately 10 minutes south on Highway 60, offering emergency services, cardiology, orthopedic surgery, and comprehensive specialty care. Ascension Columbia St. Mary's Ozaukee in Mequon provides additional hospital services within a short drive. Both maintain strong working relationships with area skilled nursing facilities.

Does Lasata Care Center offer rehabilitation services for post-hospital recovery? +

Yes. Lasata Care Center provides post-acute rehabilitation services including physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech-language pathology. These programs are designed to help residents regain strength, mobility, and function following a hospital stay, surgery, or health event, with the goal of supporting a safe return home where possible.
