Vna Assisted Living in Neenah, Wisconsin, has a range of living options for seniors age 55 and older, including studios, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments, plus semi-private and single rooms. The place feels small compared to bigger communities, which many folks like, and there's a focus on friendliness among the staff and residents. The living units can come with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, full-size kitchens, cable TV, air conditioning, internet, and the spaces are furnished. There are indoor and outdoor common areas like gardens, patios, a library, walking paths, a game room, arts room, movie theater, activity room, fitness space, garden, and wellness room, plus a business room for residents who want to stay active or socialize with others.
Residents can take part in daily activities, movie nights, music programs, and scheduled events. Programs focus on keeping everyone engaged: physically, mentally, and emotionally, and there's an activity calendar along with special community events. The staff are around day and night, ready to help residents with bathing, dressing, walking, wheelchair assistance, transfers, housekeeping, laundry, medication management, and support with health needs like blood sugar checks and care for folks who are non-ambulatory, though they don't give insulin shots-residents need to handle that themselves if they need it. Incontinence care is also available but relies on residents managing most aspects themselves. Emergency systems and standby help make things safer.
Meal services focus on nutrition, and chefs and planners prepare the food, serving meals restaurant-style with options for special diets, including diabetic and allergy-sensitive choices, and there's all-day dining. Residents have parking available, and there are transportation options for errands or appointments. There's an emphasis on everyone staying as independent as possible, with care adjusted for lighter needs rather than heavier or complex medical support. The community offers spiritual activities for those who want that, and celebrates a mission to care for seniors with respect.
Vna Assisted Living supports seniors through assisted living, independent living, home care, Alzheimer's/dementia care, and skilled nursing services for residents with lighter health and support needs. The facility is part of Valley VNA Health Systems and stays active with community programs and free events. Staff receive training, and the place is part of the Wisconsin Assisted Living Association, with a record of awards for their activities and senior living support. The main goal is to help each person age with grace, tailoring activities and care to each individual, and keeping things safe, clean, and comfortable.
