- FAQs

At WHCA/WiCAL, we know that our member facilities work hard every day to ensure the residents they serve have the very best quality of life possible. Our members also know full well that a great quality of life goes far beyond a resident receiving top-notch nursing care or nutritious food. It also means that they’re challenged and engaged, and that their lives are continually enriched.

In order to help augment those efforts, WHCA/WiCAL has created the Wishing Well program.

Modeled after similar "make a wish" programs, our Wishing Well is developed on the premise that it is never too late to reach for goals and realize longstanding dreams. To every extent possible, WHCA/WiCAL will match resident dreams with sponsors or partners who share our interest in supporting long term care residents’ quality of life.

How often have you heard a resident say, "I wish I could..." or "I wish I had..."? If a resident's lifelong dream has always been to ride a motorcycle, take in a Brewers game, graduate from high school, learn the Fox Trot, or simply visit with family then the Wishing Well might be able to help.

So please take a moment today to read through the FAQ and help a resident fill out his or her Wishing Well application today.
