Overview of Odd Fellow Home

Restorative Nursing is a named program at Odd Fellow Home; that’s the work of holding on to what a resident can still do. Therapy and Rehab is the other named program, with rehabilitation services on the list. Assisted living sits alongside nursing home and skilled nursing care in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

Somebody in the family is usually covering the nights already, so here, licensed nursing helps with that by working every hour, which takes that shift off of family who may not be able to make the time or may need the rest. The lighter level of assisted living covers medication, bathing, and dressing, as needed.

Both under one roof means a family does not need to pick a new place while somebody is already unwell. The home holds 88 beds.

Religious services are held for residents who want them. Brittany Hanson administers the home for the Odd Fellow Home Association. Medicaid and Medicare are accepted, and private pay is an option for people who can’t avail themselves of the first two. Medicare covers short skilled weeks after a hospital stay, and Medicaid covers longer stays.

The Legacy of DeForest

6639 Pederson Crossing Blvd, Deforest, WI 53532
Overview of The Legacy of DeForest

A 25-bed community in Deforest, Wisconsin, The Legacy of DeForest covers three levels of care under one address: independent living, assisted living, and memory care. It sits at 6639 Pederson Crossing Blvd in Dane County, in a stretch of the area where a car is pretty much required to get anywhere. Six years in, the community now runs at 76 percent occupancy.

Julie Lonergan administers the property, with Park Vista Senior Housing Management LLC as the operator behind it. Day to day, residents have an emergency response system in place and transportation arranged to physician, dental, therapy, specialist, and optometrist appointments, the kind of logistics that quietly matter more than they get credit for. Seasonal menus rotate through the dining room, giving some variety across the year.

Pricing runs from $7,910 to $8,910 a month, depending on care level and accommodation type, a range wide enough that it’s worth a direct conversation about where a specific resident would land. Wisconsin’s Department of Health Services, Division of Quality Assurance, oversees inspections statewide, and here those have tended to focus on staffing credentials and how well care plans get documented.

What stands out is the structure itself: three care levels in one small community, built for a resident who might start more independent and need more support later, without ever having to pack up and move somewhere new.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Wisconsin

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Wisconsin?

Assisted living in Wisconsin supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Wisconsin?

Assisted living in Wisconsin is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Wisconsin Medicaid cover assisted living?

Wisconsin Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Wisconsin) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 428 assisted living facilities in Wisconsin. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Wisconsin?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Wisconsin, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Wisconsin?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
