Skilled Nursing Communities in Seven Markets Reap Significant Upgrades

Senior care provider MGM Healthcare has launched a significant renovation of its seven Wisconsin facilities, committing between

$5-7 million in building upgrades and additional millions for new equipment, staff recognition, and employee benefits.

“We are pleased to now be serving Wisconsin seniors and their families,” says Chief Operating Officer Debbie Menzenberg, “and we want to bring all the MGM Wisconsin facilities up to the standards of MGM Healthcare throughout the Midwest so our residents can enjoy the best possible quality of life.”

The physical upgrades include new furniture, flooring, painting, transport vans, and electronics such as large flat screen televisions. They also soon will begin rolling out specialized units in a variety of senior skilled nursing care facilities depending on location and need. Additionally, MGM Wisconsin employees now receive tuition reimbursement, gifts from $25-$500 for service anniversaries, new work apparel, and the “Token of Thanks” awards for exemplary patient service. These investments in employees total more than $500,000 across the MGM system.

“Our employees are who bring the MGM Healthcare promise of ‘empowering better living’ to life,” says Menzenberg. “We know that if our employees are happy, so are our residents, and helping them achieve their highest quality of life is our No. 1 priority.”

The Wisconsin MGM Healthcare facilities receiving upgrade dollars include:

• Wausau – Colonial Manor Medical and Rehab Center
• Antigo – Eastview Medical and Rehab Center
• Green Bay – Maple Ridge Rehab & Care Center
• Manitowoc – North Ridge Medical & Rehab Center
• Kenosha – Sheridan Medical Complex & Waters Edge
• Burlington – Burlington Rehab & Care Center
