Since 1951, Shady Lane has excelled at providing the highest level of care to the residents of the Manitowoc community. We reserve our accommodations primarily for the residents of Manitowoc County because that is what we do – take care of the needs of this community first. We make every effort to meet the physical, spiritual, and social needs of all our residents. Over the years, our reputation for providing quality care has been based on our committed staff that provide care twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.
It all began in 1950 when a group of community leaders saw a need for a not-for-profit senior living facility based on sound principles and value. That philosophy continues today with our board of local visionary leaders who oversee our operations. Offering excellent care and a variety of affordable senior living accommodations is the primary guiding principle in every decision. Many changes were made through the years as Shady Lane continued to be sensitive to community needs. Currently, Shady Lane offers short-term rehab and long-term placement within its 50-bed nursing home and a variety of assisted living environments totaling 155 units.

Shady Lane has the advantage of being Manitowoc’s only private citizen-directed, not-for-profit senior living facility. Our volunteer board of directors believes that our community deserves a well-managed, affordable senior living facility, not funded by tax dollars, not directed by stockholders, but through excellent management and community support. Being not-for-profit positively affects the quality of care with any profits going right back into the facility, making it a better place and a better value. We strive to offer excellent care, a variety of prices, and affordable senior living accommodations.
