What St. Camillus does

St. Camillus is a non-profit Catholic Life Plan Community located on a single integrated campus in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, serving seniors across the Milwaukee metropolitan area. Founded by the Order of St. Camillus (Camillians) in 1932 (with the Order's U.S. presence dating to 1921), the organization operates a full continuum of care that includes Independent Living in the East and West Residences, Assisted Living and Short-term Rehab & Skilled Nursing in the South Residence, and Memory Care in the North Residence, alongside Home Health, Private Duty Supportive Services, Care Management, and Hospice delivered on campus and in the broader community. The organization also runs Pastoral Care services across three on-campus chapels and an ACPE-accredited Clinical Pastoral Education program. St. Camillus employs 251–500 staff and is supported by the Order of St. Camillus Foundation, a 501(c)(3) fundraising entity.

The business model is subscription-style recurring revenue: residents and families pay monthly fees for residential living and care services, with pricing varying by residence type, apartment size, and level of care needs; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Distribution is direct-to-consumer through a campus sales center staffed by Senior Living Specialists, website inquiry forms, scheduled campus tours, and signature Foundation events. Marketing combines content marketing (website, blog, social media on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and LinkedIn) with earned media coverage on local outlets such as CBS 58 and Milwaukee Magazine. Revenue is supplemented by donations, estate gifts, and planned giving channeled through the Foundation.

The competitive position rests on a 100-year operating history, the on-site presence of 33 Sisters of Care from seven congregations and four countries, the first LeadingAge Wisconsin 'Dementia Specific' designation earned in 2023, Joint Commission accreditation, and intergenerational partnerships with Cristo Rey Jesuit High School, Marquette University, and Concordia University Wisconsin. Major recent capital deployment includes the 168-unit East Residence expansion opened in March 2022, the North Residence completed in 2018, West Residence renovations completed in 2023, and the 2023 launch of an Outpatient Therapy Clinic and an in-house IPW Medical Clinic that extend service reach beyond the traditional residential footprint.
