The Views

The Views of Cedar Rapids setting is very purposefully established for memory care. Staff very friendly and helpful. Great activities during work week - these are all things we like best about the community

My loved one is a resident at The Views of Cedar Rapids and the overall experience has been good. The activities are wonderful and the staff are very nice and care about the residents. However, the meals should be more balanced. Overall, it's a good place to live.

Meadowview has been great to work with. We are aware of a lot of staff transitions and are pleased with the excitement of the new people. They are truly working to make our experience better and appreciate out input. The transition has been tough but the staff has been very helpful.

I am consulted when there is a decision to be made regarding my mother's health. As power of attorney, I handle her finances and health decisions. However, I live in Arizona and not present during the day to day events. But I do hear from the staff on regular basis, as well as talking with my mother. The staff is very attentive to my mother's needs and will often bring her lunch or dinner to her room, if she is unable to come to the dinning room.

There are not enough activities for my loved one, they provide a lot of musical activities and she is not musically inclined. I think it is nice they have such a nice large area that residents are able to walk in. I would recommend to others who are looking.

Wonderful atmosphere. Loved the activites.

I would recommend it to others with loved ones with memory care needs. The administration is trying hard to meet all the needs of the residents. Sing alongs, group activities, movies, and more are available activities for the residents.

The general vibe when we walked in was more care center than independent/assisted living. This would not be a facility my mother in law would be happy in.

Smelly. More business than a home feel.

Unfortunately we had to move Mom out of the Views of Marion. One staff member was a fellow who was rude and insolent. The thing that bothered me was not just his rude and disrespectful manner but that he knew he could get away with his mean nature. The saying it starts at the top may apply here. I put in a call to the head corporate office and no one bothered to call me back.

Understaffed for the high needs of their population.
