I cannot say enough good things about Meadowlands. I have a Therapy dog and volunteer at Meadowlands every week and from the very first moment I stepped inside I was astounded not only by the beautiful facilities but also the staff-everyone is so helpful, professional and caring. Long story short- I convinced my mother-in-law to have a look at Meadowlands as she was quite unhappy in her current retirement home. Shout out to Amanda, Rebecca and Dawn who not only answered all our questions but made my mother-in-law feel so welcome. She has now moved in and is happier than we've seen her in a long time. She loves the food, loves her new apartment, is making new friends and both she and her family are consistently impressed by how caring and helpful every single member of staff has been. Kudos to the staff at Meadowlands-I am certain my mother-in-law will be very happy here!!

Meadowland Retirement Community was my first & only choice for my respite care after a major surgery.The suite was not only spacious & comfortable but was very clean. The meals that were customized to my preference were delicious and healthy served by the attentive wait staff. The PSW team provided excellent personal care. The amenities are too many to mention but what stood out was Perks Cafe. A lovely spot to have a snack and meet up with another resident and visitors for a coffee. Bottom line, Rebecca Carty & the Meadowland staff made me “ feel @ home “ by their professionalism balanced with warmth and kindness during my month - long stay. I highly recommend Meadowland not only for respite care but as a permanent residence as seen from the many happy residents @ the facility during my stay.

Susan W. Hamilton, On It has been said that "it's people that make all the difference". The staff at Meadowlands, including Donna & Rebecca are the most caring and attentive people. They are always available to assist clients and guests and provide them with entertainment and fun and interesting things to do. The "Dine & Play Euchre" evenings are just one example of how good they are at making everyone feel welcomed. The meals are prepared by a chef who knows how to make roast beef melt in your melt and chicken fall off the bone. I would highly recommend the Meadowlands for an evening of fun, respite or long time care.
