Vista West
Vista West offers assisted living, independent living, and memory care in Madison, WI. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident keeps an apartment. Independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care, while memory care offers a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering.
All three care levels are available on one campus, so a resident whose needs grow over time may not need to move to another community. Vista West has 36 beds, creating a smaller setting where staff and residents can get to know each other. Housing includes studios, one-bedroom apartments, and two-bedroom apartments, with a studio providing one private space and a two-bedroom offering room for a couple moving together or for someone who wants a companion.
Monthly rates range from $6,200 to $13,100, giving families a recurring housing and care expense to budget for. A Walk Score of 63 means the area is somewhat walkable, with some errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives may be able to reach select nearby destinations independently. Residents may keep pets, and Glenwood Choban serves as administrator while Chiara Housing and Services operates Vista West. Vista West may be a good fit for a resident who wants independent living, assisted living, or memory care on the same campus as needs change.
