Manitoba Group Home sits in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, about 2.7 miles from Saint Francis, and provides a small, comfortable setting with care options for up to 8 seniors. The community has a license as a Community Based Residential Facility under Wisconsin license #11053, and offers assisted living, independent living, and memory care services, as well as some skilled nursing care. Manitoba Group Home doesn't have certification from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, so it can't accept Medicare for care, but it does focus on helping seniors from low-income backgrounds, especially those living in subsidized apartments. The care team provides help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, and managing medications, along with support for conditions like Parkinson's disease or dementia, and every resident gets a personalized support plan that fits their needs and comfort level.
The facility offers different living spaces, including studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom units, and shared rooms, with furnished options and some private kitchens or kitchenettes available, and pets are welcome to help people feel at home. Safety matters, so each room has an emergency alert system and there's staff around day and night. There are nurse staff members and visiting doctors who come by to help with health needs, and short-term respite care is there for families who need a break. Manitoba Group Home values social connections, so scheduled daily activities include movie nights, fitness and wellness exercises, library time, gardening, outdoor walks, chapel services, and other ways to reduce loneliness. Residents can use amenities like the communal kitchen, a greenhouse, library area, cable TV, telephone, high-speed internet, gardens, and outdoor spaces, as well as parking and a dining room for meals, with special diets managed when needed.
Volunteers, donations, and fundraisers help support the facility's work for seniors, and there are always opportunities for community involvement. Housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance services keep the place tidy and safe for everyone. Transportation to doctor's visits and events is available. Manitoba Group Home has personalized support, but it doesn't have a high community rating, with an average of 1 out of 10, so families may want to visit in person before making a decision. The home is dedicated to giving seniors a secure, active, and homelike place to live, focusing on comfort, safety, and choices that let people keep as much independence as possible.
