Mixed review

Meadow Mills seems to be a reasonable place, but it wasn't able to give the care my partner needed for advanced Parkinson's. The second problem was they didn't recognize this. I have moved him to a skilled nursing facility/ The staffing was not adequate. They lost or ruined 5/63 items that I brought in. Little undivided attention.

A simple no frills, but a nice friendly place!

One thing that stood out to us when we first visited Meadow Mills is there were no fowl smells, which we liked. They had some activities for the residents like music classes and games. The rooms were more minimal, i would give them a four out of five. We would recommend this community.

Review of Meadow Mills

My mom has been at Meadow Mills for a year now. I am so happy with the care she receives. I can sleep at night now knowing that she is safe and happy. Everyone from the nursing staff, CNA's activity aids all go above and beyond in their care for my mom. My mom had been at two other facilities until we found a home here at Meadow Mills, a real home!

Review of Meadow Mills

I put my mom into Meadow Mills, [date removed], and it was the best decision I could have made. The care she receives is nothing less than wonderful. Everyone here is patient and caring. My mom's very happy here and if she's happy I'm happy.

I visited this facility last week and really liked it. They are small and seem to provide personalized care. The nurse in charge seemed very knowledgeable and the staff is helpful. I'll keep them on the short list.

I have not physically seen this community, but I have spoken with them. The woman that I spoke with over the phone was great. She was very helpful, and informative. She answered all my questions, and had excellent follow up. This is a community I'am considering moving my mother too. I had nice experience speaking with the lovely lady over the phone.

My tour of this community was a good one. Everyone was kind to my family, and I. It was a nice experience. From what I saw the community looked nice, and everything appeared to be well maintained. The staff was kind, and friendly. I did find another community that suited our needs better, but our tour went well.

I visited with them searching for care for my Mother who has some memory issues. The staff was wonderful and friendly, the residents seemed really happy and they have small neighborhoods of 15 apartment and one is for highly functioning people that would be perfect for my Mom. The place was really clean and the have some great activities and people I spoke to there said that the food was very good. They have 24 hour nursing and the apartments come furnished and the care is all included. I just started looking but their pricing seemed much lower than others. Seems like a good place for my Mom to age in place and to be in a safe place.
