Marla Vista Assisted Living and Memory Care sits in Green Bay, offering both assisted living and memory care for seniors, and the place really looks out for the comfort and safety of everyone by having dedicated memory care spaces designed with alarms and security measures to prevent wandering, which means residents with Alzheimer's or dementia are safe and staff with specialized training are always on hand, day and night, to help with whatever's needed-especially if someone needs frequent reminders, close supervision, or behavioral support. The community has a waiting list policy and move-in help, and you can set up an in-person tour or even a virtual visit if that makes things easier. People can pick from studio, deluxe studio, single, two-bedroom, semi-private, or private rooms, and they all have private bathrooms, showers, kitchenettes, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and window coverings, so you get choices to fit different needs or budgets. One thing that stands out is they let you have cats or dogs, and that's nice because a lot of folks want their pet close by, and the staff understand how much that matters.
There's a dedicated memory care building that's locked and built for safety, and the staff have strong experience with memory care which helps a lot, and they really focus on privacy, respect, and individualized care-care plans get designed after talking through each person's background, medical needs, and lifestyle, and they're updated as things change over time, including if someone has trouble with medications, bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, wound care, injections, or dietary needs like vegetarian, low-sodium, or gluten-free. Residents get help with simple tasks or more complex health care, including blood sugar checks, insulin shots, occupational therapy, speech, and physical therapy, and visiting medical staff like nurses and even dentists are available, plus there's on-site home care, hospice, and respite stays for short-term help.
Meals come as home-cooked or restaurant-style, with snacks and all-day dining, and families can join for meals if they want. The place has a dining room, outdoor patios, well-lit and high-ceilinged common areas, fitness center, salon and barbershop, and spaces for games, arts and crafts, or quiet time, and the grounds are landscaped with walking paths and gardens. The full-time activity director plans a busy calendar-so residents can join in on stretching or art classes, gardening club, trivia, Wii bowling, cooking classes, devotional services, and holiday social gatherings, with plenty of choices for everyone to stay active, learn, or just have fun with friends, which is important for social health. There's regular transportation for trips and medical appointments, plus parking for residents and guests.
The place keeps things clean and offers laundry and housekeeping as part of assisted living, and has maintenance staff, too, so worries about home repair are gone. Everything's wheelchair accessible, with features like handicap showers, sprinklers, lifts, and secured exits in memory care to make moving around safer for folks at every mobility level. Residents who need more care as they age don't have to leave the community when needs change, since Marla Vista offers different levels of care, from independent and assisted living to full memory care and some nursing support, so there's no need to move if someone's health declines. Staff are known for being caring and helpful, and they keep getting extra training focused on memory care to make sure everyone's support stays up-to-date.
You'll find Marla Vista promotes a calm but welcoming feeling, emphasizing kindness, faith, and fun, while keeping everyone's dignity and privacy in mind. The community works to help seniors keep their independence as much as possible, providing standby and assistive care only where it's needed. The environment, with both indoor and outdoor spaces, fosters connection and gives plenty of chances for life enrichment and engagement, and the secured memory care building helps lessen confusion for people living with memory loss.
