The Cottages at Meadowlands Memory Care sits in Oconto Falls, WI, and serves people who live with Alzheimer's, dementia, or memory loss, doing what it can to build a safe and comfortable space where folks have the help they need for daily living and can still be part of a community that cares about their whole well-being. The memory care community features a secure setting, with staff trained in dementia and Alzheimer's care who're around day and night, and they go about their work quietly, providing gentle support, guidance, and reminders as needed, while those specialized caregivers handle help with dressing, bathing, medication management, transfers, and all the daily routines most folks need a hand with as memory declines. The place has a 20-unit memory care building made with careful thought for safety-wheelchair access, emergency alerts, and secure indoor and outdoor areas, including a three-season room and patio, so residents can sit and look out at native wildflowers and the pond with the fountain, and maybe enjoy the quiet of the private chapel or one of the gathering spaces when they like.
Large private suites each have a full bathroom and their own temperature controls, with all utilities except phone, while the décor uses soft, sensory furnishings and open concept kitchens for group activities, meals, and everyday living; and residents can count on three home-cooked meals a day, an unlimited snack program, and easy access to laundry, beauty salon, and barber services without having to leave the building. Staff coordinate activities and programs that try to keep minds and bodies as active as possible-things like gentle recreation, arts, and wellness events-and family support and hospice services are part of the care offered when it's needed. Medical services like nursing, regular doctor and podiatry visits, and support for emotional and nutritional health happen on-site, and the layout of apartments lets more independent folks enjoy either one or two-bedroom deluxe apartments in the adjoining section, where they can have privacy but also staff available 24/7. The structure of the place, the programs, and the staff all focus on helping those with memory loss live with dignity and as much comfort and engagement as their health allows, and being part of the Wisconsin Assisted Living Association, the Cottages at Meadowlands Memory Care works alongside its other Cottages facilities in the region, staying true to its purpose of specialized Alzheimer's and dementia care in a safe, compassionate environment.
