I think they do a great job at Meadow Woods! The staff here is very friendly and easy to work with. They've been very accommodating in regards to some billing issues we've had in regards to getting funding with the VA straightened out. The facility itself is well kept and clean, and they do a great job looking after the people who live here!
Cannot think of one negative thing to say about this facility. It is a beautiful property with many amenities. The staff is amazing. Every level of care is given by extremely professional and kind members of St Therese staff. I was a patient for 6weeks and was extremely happy with everything, and everyone that I came in contact with. God bless all of you. Please don’t lose that amazing level of care, like other facilities in the area. Thank you for everything. Sorry I am so late in adding this review, but I am still getting out patient PT....which will resume shortly.
My mom was only there for not quite a month and a half and then she passed away. But while she was there they were all so nice to her, and always made sure she was included in activities. I really felt that she was at a good place there. The food was very good, and if she wasn't hungry at meal time they always offered her snacks in between or even a sandwich or something. And the aides would take the time to visit with my mom and get to know her.
