Wissota Place

Very high turnover of staff, and always understaffed. If the cleaning person is on vacation the units don't get cleaned. Food comes to the table cold, or at best room temperature. Off campus activities rarely actually happen because the ancient bus they have is chronically not running. Residents gather for planned activities like exercise class or games, sit there and wait, and nobody shows up to lead the class or game. Looking to find a new location for my loved one.

Wissota Place was a very nice place, a little larger, more apartment type, but very clean, and the rooms were very nice. The staff was very friendly and very helpful. They seemed to have a good number of activities.

I've been a resident of Wissota Place for a couple of years. It's beautiful, it's everything you could ask for, and they have everything here. The staff is very kind, and very considerate. I can't say anything bad about them. They try really hard to meet all your needs, and they come to clean my apartment and do my laundry. I have a call light if I fall down or need to go to the hospital. I just push my button and somebody comes. The only thing they don't have is shuttle transportation. For instance, I'm just a block from my doctor but I have to take a cab, which I find very annoying. My apartment has a little kitchen with a microwave and a fridge, but no stove, there's a sink and cabinets, a nice little table, and a living room with a cable television (all provided through my rent).I have Wi-Fi hookups in my bedroom, I have my computer in there, and a bathroom with a shower that's handicapped accessible. It's a lovely apartment. They have exercises Monday through Fridays, and they have one activities person who pretty much does everything. They have a lot of music, people come in to play music, and they play bingo. They put out a calendar on the first of every month with all the activities scheduled, so there's always something going on. There's almost 70 people here, and everybody's friendly. We have a separate room that's a library and a great big TV, and they have movies, and we have a big activity room where they do exercises and have parties and things like that. We celebrate every holiday with a party. It's just too far away from everything I want to do. It's out in the country. We have three meals a day in the dining room. They follow the menu and you have an alternative as well. The only thing is that they're not real skilled in putting it on the plate. I don't really care for the food that much but they really try hard. I'm at about $3,000 a month, so that's a pretty reasonable price for this area.

I visited Wissota Place. They had three meals a day and nurses on-staff. They had very nice, good-sized rooms, and they'd actually make two single rooms into one two-bedroom if you wanted it that way. I would've moved in there myself. They had a hallway that would take you right to the hospital. The common area was very nice, clean, and spacious, and could handle quite a few people. We had lunch there, and the food was great.
