Over promised, under delivered

After touring the memory care for my mom, we felt the community was the best choice for location and value for our money. However, we were "sold" on a completely different experience than we received. The bulk of the activities revolved around residents being parked in front of the tv in the common area while the aides sat around on their phones. They allowed my mom to walk around in soiled clothing after meals and charged us for every time they had to help her navigate to the dining room. This is memory care, assisting residents to navigate should be an included expectation, not an added expense. And let's not mention the multitude of times they sent her to the ER in an ambulance when I explicitly told them not to. One time was for a bloody nose. Seriously?! The only time we saw the Memory Care Director was when we had a planned meeting. Otherwise, she was behind closed doors and was not at all active with residents in the community. It is kept fairly clean, so that was a relief.

A Perfect Place

First, I liked that Memory Care was in a stand alone, one level building. Second, it seemed fresh and clean. Most important the staff seemed capable and caring which has proven to be true.

Memory Care Experience after 5 weeks

The appearance of the communal spaces of the memory care unit are kept clean. There seems to be activities several times a day. The staff overall seems caring and attentive. They have really spent a good amount of time learning my mother's history in order to help care for her. The rooms are very spacious. I love the accessibility of the outdoor courtyard for residents.

Overall a very nice community. You may quote me.

Facilities are in excellent condition. Wide hallways, and spacious public areas. Multipurpose room, theater, lounge area with game tables, and on site physical therapy facilities. Parking lots recently resaved, sidewalks and curbs repaired where needed. Outdoor landscaping very well maintained And nice spaces outdoors that some other facilities lack. [name removed], the Activities director is great. She works hard at involving residents and maintaining a full schedule of activities. This place offers Independent living, assisted living, and memory care facilities.

Great facility and I’m comfortable having my mom live there

I like the staff in the front office, the staff who work with the residents and all the nurses - head nurse, medicine nurse, speech therapist and Geriatric NP. The residents” activity calendar always has a variety of things for the residents to do. There are 2 libraries and lots of gas fireplaces. There are many windows throughout the building so it is bright and welcoming

I would recommend it ??%

Staff is quick to resolve any issues. Very professional and clean. Best place mom has been! When mom first got there the food was delicious and it was true restaurant dining. They have changed management now and the quality of food has gone down and the service as well in the dining room . I'm hoping they're just working out kinks. They have a great variety of activities really something for everyone.

Great Place for Mom

Many of the staff have been there since it opened. The facility has IL and AL together which makes for a smoother transition. The management team is willing to dig in and do whatever is needed, literally from picking up coworkers in bad weather (like January's storm) to doing the cooking if the cook is sick.

Needs more overnight staffing and better food choices

They need better food or food choices. Also, more staffing overnight for the residents. The room sizes and amenities offered are good.

I should have looked into more options.

We live in one of the cottages and for what it costs more amenities should be available. Things such as meals and cleaning for example .

Response from Park Meadows Senior Living

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We truly value your feedback and understand how important it is for you to feel you're receiving the best experience possible. While our cottage lifestyle is designed to offer a more independent living option, we’re always open to exploring ways to enhance the amenities and services available to our residents. Regarding your suggestion about including meals and cleaning services, this is something we’ve carefully considered. In early 2024, we conducted a survey among our independent cottage residents, and the majority expressed a preference for maintaining the flexibility to choose services on an as-needed basis. This approach also allows us to offer cottage rents at a lower rate compared to those that bundle additional services. That said, we understand that preferences can vary, and we’d love to hear more about what specific services would make the most impact for you. Your feedback helps us continually refine and improve our community offerings. Thank you again for reaching out and sharing your perspective!

Not an easy transition

The adjustment to life at Park Meadows is not as easy as we had hoped. We asked a lot of questions and I felt like we had a good idea of how it was going to go, but that sales lady was good at making things seem like butterflies and rainbows (as salespeople often do). I hope that Park Meadows is just in a time of transition and it will get better. For all of 2024, they have been updating the independent living side of the building so I assume everything is just chaos and not operating as usual. I do wonder if it will get worse before it gets better as they fill up independent living apartments and have to balance out staffing, but we'll keep our fingers crossed.

Dear Anonymous, thank you for sharing your thoughts - it’s completely understandable that transitions like this can be more challenging than expected. It sounds like you put a lot of effort into preparing for this move, which shows how much you care about making the right decisions. While it may feel a bit overwhelming right now, especially with the changes happening as the community grows, it’s clear you’re keeping an open mind and a hopeful outlook. Adjustments can take time, but often, those initial hurdles do pave the way for a better experience in the long run. We would like to understand more about the specifics of your situation so we may better address any challenges or concerns. Please reach out to our Executive Director, Thomas Inderhees, at your earliest opportunity. As things settle, it is our hope that Park Meadows will feel more like home and exceed your expectations!

A great place for Mom

The staff is fantastic and very attentive to the needs of the residents. They know the resident and their family by name. Very important as my Mother makes the transition from home to a safe, long term care facility

Perfect fit for our mom

A few things that stood out for us as we toured facilities. This one was not so overly large that it would be overwhelming to my mom. It's very Homelike. The staff are all so nice. There's onsite doctors to use if you choose which really cuts down on having to get her to so many appointments. They have levels of care so we don't feel like we are paying for services that she doesn't need. She has blood pressure problems and they are so careful to monitor her. She had a few days where it was running higher and they added the number of times they checked it in the day and also weee in contact with the nurse practitioner. She is very comfortable there. She enjoys the social interaction she didn't have when living alone.

A caring and welcoming community for seniors

From our first contact with Park Meadows through the rental process and the actual move in, the staff was very responsive, friendly and kind. They answered all our questions and bent over backwards to accommodate a quick move in date. The studio apartment is bright, comfortable and well-designed to be accessible. Weekly housekeeping and laundry services are provided. Various levels of care are available depending on need. The facility is clean, neat, well-lit and attractively decorated. Outside there are nice sidewalks and green space, as well as a garden maintained by the residents. Activities such as a weekly movie night and musical performances are available. The only negative is that the service at meals is very slow. Overall, Park Meadows gets high marks Highly recommend.

Mom is well cared for here

My mom needed to go into assisted living on very short notice. I toured 6 places in 3 days and Park Meadows stood out against the others. The people are lovely, the food is tasty, and the facility is beautiful. My mom got a one bedroom apartment and it has been an adjustment to downsize from a larger place, but it has everything she needs. Bathrooms are large, closets are large, and there are lots of windows. The staff cleans her place once a week and does all her laundry. She does PT and OT onsite and uses the onsite doctor as her PCP. Great if your person has frequent medical needs but nothing that needs an ER. They also have great activities including live music every Friday for happy hour (at 4:30). I am very pleased with Park Meadows and feel better knowing my mom is well cared for.

The right place for Mom

Always are friendly and warm. They treat my mom very well and are responsive to me whenever I have a question or request. The only issue is turnover, which seems to be a problem everywhere.

They are having a very hard time keeping their help. The wait times for meals are routinely -30-60 minutes long.

More inviting than the other Senior Living homes visited

Park Meadows has Independent Living; Assisted Living; and Memory Care facilities on the same campus. Memory Care is in a separate building. Grounds provide well maintained outdoor areas and a nice natural feel to the outdoor areas. Dining facilities are spacious and comfortable. Hallways are wide and the three story main buildings has three elevators. It includes a theater room, an activities room, a multi purpose room, a physical therapy room and a clinic. They offer group transportation and daily activities.
