Artisan De Pere is a senior living community in De Pere, Wisconsin, where folks can find help suited to what they need, whether that's independent living, assisted living, or memory care for those with Alzheimer's or dementia, and they even have nursing home and hospice services if things ever change and get a bit harder. You won't find smoking allowed inside the private or public areas, but you will find residents are welcome to have pets right there in the community, which makes it feel more like home, and everyone gets help with meals that are nutritious and made with good ingredients, plus there are options if someone needs a special diet or has allergies. There's free transportation for the residents when they need to go out and about, and the place offers indoor common spaces for activities, socializing, and meeting others, which is nice, and the Activity Director comes up with things to keep people engaged, whether that's movie nights, garden walks, or even resident-run events.
They say they try to help residents live with independence and stay active, but if you need more help, there's always someone ready to assist with activities like dressing, bathing, moving from place to place, or making sure medicine is taken at the right time. Each person gets a care plan that's designed just for them and can get extra services brought in, as needed, and they have an emergency call system along with people around the clock. The memory care area provides more supervision and engagement for those with dementia or memory loss, and they're set up to help with wheelchairs and non-ambulatory care, even offering a dementia waiver if required. Housekeeping and laundry are handled, so there's less to worry about day-to-day, and meals are served in a dining room that offers all-day dining and restaurant-style service, so no one's stuck with rigid meal times.
The community itself has spaces like a library, walking paths, barber and salon, gardens, and comfortable indoor areas to gather. Residents can expect frequent activities, on-site devotionals, and transportation for outings, along with amenities that promote comfort and safety, like emergency alert systems and phone access in the rooms, plus it's all in a secure environment committed to everyone's well-being. They even got a deficiency-free survey from the Wisconsin Department of Health Services, which means their standards meet strict health and safety rules. The whole setup is focused on making everyday life easier and more comfortable, whether someone wants to live independently with less hassle or needs a bit more help along the way.
