Overview of Harbor View Assisted Living

Harbor View Assisted Living offers assisted living, memory care, and respite care in Manitowoc, WI. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident keeps a personal living space. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, while respite care offers a short stay when a resident’s usual caregiver needs time to travel or recover.

There are 43 beds. That gives the community a smaller setting where staff and residents can get to know one another, and the combination of care levels may suit a resident whose needs grow over time. Respite care can also suit a family needing temporary support, while the pet policy may allow a resident to keep a pet as part of the move.

An onsite salon and barber let residents receive grooming services within the community, and rehabilitation services provide access to therapy as part of their care. The community is operated by Manitowoc Senior Living. A Walk Score of 75 means the area is very walkable, with most errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives can still reach nearby shops, a pharmacy, or cafes independently.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care 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.

Does Wisconsin Medicaid cover memory care?

Wisconsin Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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 memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 334 memory care communities in Wisconsin. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community 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 memory care communities 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.
