About Vista Prairie at Windmill Ponds

from Oasis Senior Advisors

Vista Prairie at Windmill Ponds provides three levels of residence—Independent Living, Assisted Living, and a secure Memory Care program—so residents can enter at the level that best matches current needs and adjust as those needs change. Short-term respite stays are available for individuals recovering from illness or for family caregivers who need a break, and every resident benefits from twenty-four-hour staffing ready to assist with daily activities or medical concerns.

Medical oversight extends beyond routine assistance. Licensed nurses are on site for health monitoring, medication management, and coordination of hospice services when required. Speech, occupational, and physical therapists visit the community to deliver prescribed therapies, and staff are trained to manage diabetes, provide ambulatory and incontinence support, and respond through an in-room emergency call system. This constant clinical presence supports residents with chronic conditions and offers families added peace of mind.

Apartments vary in size and layout, and not every unit includes every feature, yet most residents will find essentials such as step-in or wheelchair-accessible showers, individual climate control, Wi-Fi, and easy access to common areas with a central fireplace. Outdoor patios, landscaped walking paths, and adequate parking encourage time outside, and the community is pet friendly; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.

Daily meals are prepared on site, and menus are designed to align with resident preferences and medical diets. Standard meal service covers three meals a day, with guest meals available for visiting family or friends. Staff can adjust portions, texture, or timing for residents who need specialized nutrition, and team members monitor intake to ensure dietary recommendations are followed.

Residents can stay occupied through an activity center that schedules social outings, birthday celebrations, clubs, and live piano performances. A library and computer lounge supports quiet reading or online connections, and outdoor space is available for fresh air or small gatherings. These amenities encourage community interaction and help residents maintain routines that support overall well-being.
