Assisted living is for someone who is largely independent but needs a reliable hand with the everyday things — bathing, dressing, medications, meals, getting to appointments. In Wisconsin, most communities marketed as “assisted living” are licensed as a Community-Based Residential Facility (CBRF), for five or more unrelated adults receiving room, board, supervision and up to three hours of nursing care a week, or as a Residential Care Apartment Complex (RCAC), which provides private apartments and can deliver up to 28 hours a week of supportive care — a materially higher care ceiling than a CBRF.

The Mequon market specifically
Mequon is the largest city in Ozaukee County, an affluent lakefront community anchored by an Ascension Columbia St. Mary's Ozaukee hospital campus, supporting multiple continuing-care campuses along the northern lakefront.
Families searching Mequon often also look at Whitefish Bay to the south and Cedarburg to the north, spanning both Milwaukee and Ozaukee counties.
Visit twice, at different hours
A scheduled mid-morning tour and an unannounced 7 p.m. drop-in can look like two different buildings. Evening and overnight are when staffing thins and when families are most often surprised.
Eat a meal there. Talk to a resident's family member in the parking lot rather than one the community introduces you to.
