New Perspective Senior Living | Island Shores — Local services in Neenah

There is a library and an area for jigsaw puzzles, as well as a library with a community computer. There is a Friday happy hour and shuffle board tounament.

After a little over a month of substandard care as a family we moved her back to her home and she has accseded all of our exscpections. She is off of numerious meds she didn't need to be on, she moves around and can take of herself with little or no assistance. Island Shores was always understaffed and medical prodical wasn't followed....
