Overview of Heritage Lake Country

Heritage Lake Country is an assisted living, independent living, and memory care community in Hartland, WI. Independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care, while assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident keeps their own apartment.

Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. With several care levels in one community, Heritage Lake Country may be a good fit for a resident whose support needs may grow over time without requiring a move to another community. Respite care is also available for short stays rather than only long term residence.

Studio, one bedroom, and two bedroom layouts are available. A studio provides a single private space, while a two bedroom option allows a couple or companion to live together. The community has 46 beds, making it a smaller setting where residents and staff can get to know one another, and HSL 15 operates Heritage Lake Country.

Overview of Harbour Village

Harbour Village offers three care types in Greendale, WI. They cover independent living, assisted living, and memory care, and LCS Greendale LLC operates the community.

Independent living provides a private home and community services but leaves daily care out. Assisted living goes further and helps with bathing, medication, and dressing. Memory care supervises residents with a risk of wandering inside a secured setting, and having all three levels together means growing needs do not require a move to another community.

With 52 beds, Harbour Village is a smaller home where staff and residents can get to know one another. Respite care is there for a short period while a regular caregiver travels or recuperates.

At 63 on Walk Score, the setting is somewhat walkable, and some errands are within walking distance. A resident moving in can bring a pet too, since pets are allowed.

Overview of Shawano Place

Getting up before the sun rises in the morning and heading for the door is the kind of behaviour from those suffering from dementia that the security of a memory care facility is built to provide. Shawano Place in Shawano, Wisconsin, offers memory care, alongside assisted living and respite care.

Assisted living is a lighter arrangement covering the bare essentials of what elderly people may need help with: medication, dressing, and bathing. Respite care covers whatever is needed but only for short stays, which can be needed when the family member who normally acts as caregiver cannot be there for some amount of time.

Forty-six beds keeps it small enough for staff and residents to be well-acquainted. A Walk Score of 79 means that it’s set in a pretty walkable location with most errands doable on foot. A resident who can’t or won’t drive gets to keep most of their independence.

Needs that shift over time can be met in the same community here. Shawano Senior Living operates the community.

Overview of Shady Lane Nursing Care Center

Shady Lane Nursing Care Center in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, offers nursing home, assisted living, memory care, respite care, and skilled nursing. Skilled nursing and nursing home care include licensed nursing care on site around the clock, while assisted living helps with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and taking medication. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, and respite care offers a short stay when a usual caregiver needs time to travel or recover.

Having several care levels in one community may suit a resident whose needs grow over time, since a move to a different campus may not be necessary.

Overview of Clement Manor

Clement Manor offers nursing home and skilled nursing care, assisted living, independent living, memory care, palliative care, and respite care in Greenfield, WI. Independent living provides a private home with community services and no daily care, while assisted living adds help with bathing, dressing, and medication.

Total nurse staffing is 4h 4m per resident per day, representing the daily hands-on nursing time available per resident.

An on-site chapel, pastoral care, and religious services give residents access to spiritual support within the community, while the warm water therapy pool and fitness center provide places for exercise and therapy-related activity. Salon and spa services, outdoor gardens and walking spaces, the Clement Manor Life Enriched Art Gallery, Country Store, and restaurant add on-site places for personal care, leisure, shopping, and meals. A Walk Score of 41 places the area in a car-dependent setting, so most errands require a car or a ride, and a resident who no longer drives would need transportation to run them 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.
