PROVIDING SPECIALIZED AND COMPASSIONATE MEMORY CARE

We understand the worry, stress, and anxiety that comes with taking care of a family member with disabilities or memory impairments. We also know the significant investment of time that is required. That’s where KANDU comes in. We help alleviate those stresses with an activities-oriented adult day services and memory care program that allows your loved one to improve their physical, mental and social wellbeing and give you peace of mind that they are in good hands.

IMPROVING SOCIAL WELLBEING

“The KANDU day service program is a vital program for the community, caregivers and the person affected by memory loss. The trained staff provide scheduled cognitive and physical activities that enhance quality of life in a safe and relaxed environment.”

— Tammy Pence, Alzheimer’s Support Center

AND THERE’S MORE…

Clients can spend the day with a group of peers in a comfortable home-like setting where they build independence and self-esteem in a nurturing and secure environment while providing their caregivers with the important respite they need. Family members have their minds put at ease knowing our experienced staff is focused solely on the needs of their loved ones. Programming is tailored to each participant’s individual abilities and the KANDU staff — which includes a nurse and team of certified nursing assistants — fosters a community that feels more like a family than a facility.

Not only does KANDU staff assist with all day-to-day needs, including meal preparation, toileting, medication administration, and mobility, they strive to create a family-like atmosphere that is fun and engaging.

Nothing starts the day quite like a warm, delicious breakfast—especially when it’s made with a little extra fun! Clients kicked off the morning with heart-shaped and Mickey Mouse-shaped waffles, turning an ordinary meal into something special. 💙

Love isn’t just for one day—we're celebrating all month long at KANDU! Using paint and jewels, clients made one-of-a-kind Valentine's masterpieces filled with festive colors and a whole lot of heart. 💕

Watching each client's creativity shine is a reminder that ...self-expression is just as important as other life skills. Every day, we create opportunities for our clients to explore, connect, and share their gifts with the world. 🎨✨

A heartfelt thank you to Congressman Bryan Steil for visiting KANDU this morning! Representative Steil met with our Executive Director Kathy Hansen and toured our beautiful new facility in Milton, Wis. We were joined by KANDU Board President Michael Davis, Board Vice President Aron Bussan, ...Endowment Board President Pat Lyons, Board Members and Parent Advocates Rick Wilson and Betsy Nelson, and Joel Kleefisch, who represented A-Team Wisconsin. Together, we had a great discussion on the importance of 14(c) special wage certificates for KANDU and similar organizations.

These certificates are crucial as they help people with disabilities access job training and employment. They allow approved employers like KANDU to pay wages based on individual productivity and adjust jobs and work environments to meet employees' needs. Our programs also provide trained supervisors, opportunities for physical activities, socialization with peers, career counseling, and specialized job training.

We are fortunate to have Representative Steil’s support. Keep an eye out for coverage tonight or tomorrow on Madison’s WKOW 27 (ABC 27) and WMTV 15 News (NBC15), and in the Janesville Gazette.

Here are photos of young adults with disabilities in KANDU's Livin' & Learnin' program participating in the last of six nutrition education classes with UW-Madison, Division of Extension Rock County FoodWIse program. We learned about mindful eating, reading nutrition labels, and ...trying out new recipes. Along the way, our clients put their cooking skills to the test, making everything from fruit smoothies and banana pancakes to cheesy broccoli soup and homemade French fries. A huge thank you to Karen from FoodWIse for sharing her knowledge, time, and some seriously tasty recipes with us!

This free talk will be about Alzheimer's disease and healthy brain aging for women. Dr. Van Hulle will provide an overview of dementia and Alzheimer's disease, current treatment options and recommended lifestyle changes with a specific focus on women's health.

Registration ...is required—for details on how to sign up, visit the Facebook event page.

👏 Can we get a big round of applause for the incredible students of Marshall Middle School?

Their student council went above and beyond, raising $1,000 for KANDU! These young leaders are proof that kindness, generosity, and community spirit start early—and we couldn’t be more ...grateful. 💙
