CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, the federal agency that regulates nursing homes) Overall 5-star rating — a composite of Health Inspection, Staffing, and Quality Measures scores. 5 stars = top 10% nationally. 1 star = bottom 10%. The single most important number to start with when comparing facilities.
Care Types in This Table AL (Assisted Living): Housing with help for daily activities like bathing, dressing, and medication, without 24-hour skilled nursing. NH (Nursing Home): 24/7 skilled nursing care for residents with complex, ongoing medical needs. SNF (Skilled Nursing Facility): Round-the-clock nursing care, often for recovery after surgery, injury, or illness. MC (Memory Care): Secured, specialized care for people living with Alzheimer's or dementia. RC (Respite Care): Short-term temporary care that gives family caregivers a break.
Neighborhood or city area where the facility is located. Proximity to family, hospitals, and green space matters for both quality of life and ease of visitation. Consider drive time and transit access when evaluating location.
Licensed bed capacity. Larger facilities (300+ beds) often have more specialized programs but can feel institutional. Smaller homes (under 150 beds) tend to deliver more personalized care. Compare with Avg Res/Day to understand how full the facility typically runs.
Percentage of licensed beds filled on an average day. Color indicates financial health: green (90%+) = operationally strong, typically profitable. Amber (80–89%) = stable but leaving revenue on the table. Orange (70–79%) = financial strain likely, may struggle with fixed costs. Red (<70%) = significant distress, closure or ownership change risk increases sharply.
This facility's occupancy rate compared to the statewide average for similar facilities. A positive number means above-average demand. Facilities running 5%+ above the state average are typically the most sought-after in their market — a strong proxy for reputation.
CMS-adjusted total nurse hours per resident per day (RN + LPN + CNA combined). The national average is approximately 3.5 hrs. Higher is better — more direct care time per resident. Below 3.0 is a red flag. CMS weights RN hours more heavily because RNs handle complex clinical decisions that CNAs cannot.
CMS Health Inspection star rating (1–5 stars), based on the 3 most recent annual state surveys plus any complaint investigations. This is the hardest rating to manipulate — it reflects real surveyor findings on-site. 5 stars = fewest deficiencies found. 1 star = most. It carries the heaviest weight in the Overall CMS rating.
CMS Staffing star rating (1–5 stars), based on daily nurse staffing hours submitted to CMS via verified payroll data. Compares RN, LPN, and CNA coverage relative to resident acuity level. 5 stars = well above expected staffing. Weekend staffing is evaluated separately, as that's where many facilities quietly reduce coverage.
CMS Quality Measures star rating (1–5 stars), based on 15 clinical outcome metrics including fall rates, pressure ulcers, antipsychotic drug use, and hospital readmissions. Captures actual resident health outcomes, not just compliance. High QM combined with low Health Inspection scores can indicate a facility with strong care but weak documentation practices.
Registered Nurse hours per resident/day compared to the statewide average. RNs are the highest-skilled nursing staff — they assess residents, manage medications, and respond to emergencies. A value of +50% means RN coverage is 50% above the state norm. Negative values are a concern for residents with complex or acute medical needs.
Total nursing staff hours (RN + LPN + CNA combined) per resident/day vs. the statewide average. A broader measure than RN vs State — it captures the entire care team. A facility can have high total staffing but low RN hours, meaning more aides and fewer nurses. Read both columns together for the full picture.
Total dollar amount of federal monetary fines (civil money penalties) issued by CMS in the past 3 years. Fines are only levied for serious violations — typically actual harm to residents, repeated uncorrected deficiencies, or systemic non-compliance. Even a single fine is noteworthy. Multiple fines strongly suggest a pattern, not isolated incidents.
Total health deficiency citations from the most recent standard inspection cycle. Minor citations (scope A–C) are common and often administrative in nature. Higher counts aren't always disqualifying, but should be read alongside Severe Citations to understand actual harm levels. Under 10 is strong for a large facility; 30+ warrants a closer look.
Average deficiency citations per CMS inspection (survey) in the reporting window — total citations divided by the number of inspections. Lower is better; compare alongside total Citations and Severe Citations for context.
Citations at CMS scope/severity level G or higher — G–I means actual harm occurred; J–L means residents were placed in immediate jeopardy. (D–F is potential for harm only). Examples include unaddressed falls, medication errors causing injury, neglect, or abuse.
Average number of residents in the building on any given day, derived from annual census data. Reflects true operating scale — a 400-bed facility running 200 residents/day operates very differently from one at 390. Higher resident counts generally mean more funded staffing hours.
Better Business Bureau rating (A+ to F). Reflects complaint history, business transparency, and how family disputes were resolved. A+ means no significant unresolved complaints. A blank (—) means the facility isn't BBB-accredited, which is common for healthcare providers and not necessarily a negative signal.
Walk Score® (0–100). Measures walkability of the surrounding area. 90–100 = Walker's Paradise. 70–89 = Very Walkable. 50–69 = Somewhat Walkable. Below 50 = Car-Dependent. Higher scores benefit family visitors, resident outings, and staff commuting.
The licensed owner or operator of record filed with CMS — the individual or organization legally accountable for the facility. Searching the operator name across other facilities can reveal chain or multi-site ownership, which matters: chain-operated homes tend to have more variable quality outcomes than independently run facilities.
What the home actually collects for resident care, after contractual allowances, bad debt and discounts — not gross billings. Taken from the latest complete annual cost report, so it is comparable across homes reporting the same period. Revenue alone doesn't indicate care quality, but it funds staffing and capital reinvestment. Pair with Payroll %. Figures are from each facility's most recent complete fiscal year — hover a value for the exact year; a * marks homes that report an older period than most facilities.
Staff salaries plus wage-related benefits from the latest complete annual cost report. Contract and agency labour is counted separately, under other operating costs, so a home leaning on agency staff can show a low figure here. Payroll is the cost most directly tied to care quality — compare with Payroll % for full context. Figures are from each facility's most recent complete fiscal year — hover a value for the exact year; a * marks homes that report an older period than most facilities.
Payroll as a share of NET PATIENT REVENUE (not gross revenue). Both figures come from the same cost-report year. A higher figure means more of each revenue dollar goes to staff pay. Read with the Staffing star rating to judge whether spend translates into coverage — and note that homes whose patient revenue covers only part of their operation can read implausibly high. The Wisconsin average is: 59.2% Figures are from each facility's most recent complete fiscal year — hover a value for the exact year; a * marks homes that report an older period than most facilities.

Overview of Woodside Lutheran Home

Woodside Lutheran Home offers assisted living, memory care, respite care, and nursing home care, including skilled nursing, in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks, while memory care offers a secured setting with supervision for a resident at risk of wandering. Respite care provides a short stay when a usual caregiver needs time away, and nursing home care provides licensed nursing services on site 24 hours a day.

The range of care settings may suit a resident whose needs could grow over time without requiring a move to another community.

Scheduled transportation is available, and a salon and spa provide personal care services on site.

Woodside Lutheran Home has 118 beds. Total nurse staffing is 5 hours and 57 minutes per resident per day, representing the daily hands on nursing time assigned to each resident. Payment options include Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.

Homemade meals include therapeutic and special diets created by a registered dietitian, allowing meal plans to address documented dietary needs. Religious services are available, and a doctor is on staff. A Walk Score of 67 means the area is somewhat walkable, with some errands possible on foot for a resident who no longer drives.

Overview of Grancare Nursing Center

Owned by Donald Zunker, Grancare Nursing Center is a nursing home in Green Bay, Wisconsin. It’s located in a car-dependent neighborhood where most daily errands require a vehicle. However, public transit is available for longer trips. The 64-bed facility accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, which gives families flexibility in how they cover short-term rehabilitation and longer-term nursing care.

The home has an occupancy rate of 77%. Residents stay an average of about 133 days, including a mix of post-acute patients and those who remain for ongoing skilled nursing. Daily nurse staffing averages 4 hours and 41 minutes per resident. Solid hands-on support is provided by registered nurses, nurse aides, and LPNs. The facility is particularly strong in rehabilitation services. Short-term rehab, respite care, and physical, occupational, and speech therapy are available for residents recovering from surgery or hospitalization.

Grancare has a doctor on staff, so there’s less need for outside medical appointments. Also, there’s 24-hour nursing coverage. Beyond clinical care, residents’ quality of life is supported through social and recreational activities, religious services, laundry and housekeeping, and dietary services. There’s also a restorative nursing program for residents regaining function and independence. The facility also has an end-of-life program, which is an important part of care planning for some families.

Overview of Edenbrook of Green Bay

Edenbrook of Green Bay is a 90-bed skilled nursing facility on St Anthony Drive in Green Bay, Wisconsin, in Brown County. It’s operated by Parkview Nursing and Rehab, LLC, owned by Dr. Doris Ain, and administered by Megan Dennison. The community offers nursing home, skilled nursing, and respite care, built around rehabilitation services for residents recovering from surgery, illness, or a hospital stay.

Edenbrook supports a mix of short-term rehabilitation and longer-term nursing care, so residents arrive both to recover after an acute event and to settle in for extended stays. The facility currently runs at 76 percent occupancy, and the average length of stay is 46 days, a pattern consistent with a rehab-heavy population alongside longer-term residents. It accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, giving families several ways to cover the cost of care.

Nursing coverage averages 3 hours and 12 minutes of total nursing care per resident each day, including 42 minutes of dedicated registered nurse time, with licensed practical nurses and nurse aides rounding out the rest of daily hands-on support. That coverage spans around the clock, which matters most for residents who need more clinical oversight during a recovery period.

State inspectors with Wisconsin’s Department of Health Services, Division of Quality Assurance, have reviewed Edenbrook’s operations over multiple years. Their reports have most often centered on medication management, infection-control practices, and consistency in day-to-day documentation and resident dignity during care routines. Families touring the community may want to ask directly about current staffing schedules and infection-control protocols, since those areas have come up as recurring themes.

The facility sits in a car-dependent part of Green Bay, so visiting family members and staff commuting in should plan on driving rather than walking to nearby errands or amenities.

Overview of Green Bay Health Services

Brain Injury Rehabilitation runs as a named program at Green Bay Health Services, a 125-bed nursing home in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Relearning how to manage a morning is different work from rebuilding leg strength, and it needs help from people with certain specializations and training. Home Health and Hospice are the other named programs, with rehabilitation services listed separately.

Nursing time comes to 3 hours and 29 minutes per resident, per day, spread across the day as an average figure. That number measures hands-on nursing and nothing else. Staff are in the building 24 hours, and a doctor is on-staff as well.

Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay all reach the bill. Medicare covers the weeks right after a hospital discharge, and then it stops. A resident admitted for rehab and still in the building eight months later is on Medicaid by then.

Skilled nursing here covers ongoing medical support and long stays alike. Kristin Molsk is the administrator. Nsh Green Bay runs the operation.

Overview of Woodside Lutheran Home

Woodside Lutheran Home is a 118-bed nursing home on Pilgrim Way in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

A doctor is on staff, and the facility runs outpatient therapy alongside an Alzheimer’s support group. A registered dietitian plans the daily menus to match specific medical diets.

The surrounding neighborhood has a walkability score of 55 out of 100, meaning some errands can be finished on foot. State inspection data shows that the facility has a citations-per-inspection rate that is not zero, with past state surveys noting specific compliance citations related to medication storage and barrier precautions during infection control.

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.

Overview of Woodside Manor I II III IV

Woodside Manor I II III IV offers independent living, assisted living, memory care, respite care, and nursing care, including skilled nursing, in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Assisted living helps with daily tasks while a resident keeps a private apartment, and memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. Skilled nursing provides licensed nursing care around the clock.

Independent living is private living without daily care, while respite care supports a short term stay when a usual caregiver needs to travel or recover. The range of care levels may make Woodside Manor I II III IV a good fit for a resident whose needs could grow over time, since moving to a different level of care can occur within the same community. The community serves adults aged 55 and older, has 140 beds, and is operated by Bay Area Lutheran Homes.

Skilled Nursing & Rehab and Therapy & Wellness Services provide rehabilitation and therapy support within the community’s care offerings, while Spiritual Care provides access to spiritual support. A Walk Score of 67 places the area in the somewhat walkable band, meaning some errands can be done on foot. A resident who no longer drives may be able to reach certain nearby destinations independently.

Overview of Adult Day Services:daybreak/reflections/crossroads

Adult Day Services:daybreak/reflections/crossroads provides adult day care in Green Bay, WI. Adult day care gives a participant support during the day while a usual caregiver has time away, and respite care provides a short stay when that caregiver needs a break.

Overview of Woodside Senior Communities

Woodside Senior Communities in Green Bay is structured as a multi-program operation. Six distinct residences sit within the same organization: the Lutheran Home, Manor, Villa, Oaks, Haven, and an income-based independent living program. Residents can shift between care levels without getting uprooted entirely. The neighborhood scores a Walk Score of 56, which means some errands work on foot and some don’t.

The income-based independent living designation stands out. Most senior living communities bury their financial structures or work things out on a case-by-case basis. Woodside has built affordability into the framework itself, which is a different approach altogether.

On-site rehabilitation exists within the context of nursing-level care. Nurse aides clock 3 hours and 26 minutes per resident daily. RNs add 1 hour and 23 minutes. LPNs and LVNs contribute 34 minutes.

What you’re looking at is an organization built to hold different people in different conditions without making them leave. The financial model assumes that not everyone can pay market rate, and they’ve structured for that assumption. It’s neither a lifestyle amenity operation nor a minimal-care facility. It’s a working clinical environment designed to accommodate actual variation in what people need and what they can afford.

Frequently Asked Questions about Nursing Homes in Green Bay, WI

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 nursing home care?
