The Hampton at Meadows Place

From our standpoint, I think the most important thing is that they were able to offer diabetes management. We chose this community because of this reason and that he would be able to live in an assisted living because he wasn't ready for a nursing home yet. The caregivers are great. The food is good and they are able to offer a diabetic diet to him. The staff have been great in accommodating, managing, and persuading him to make better choices according to his dietary restrictions. I would recommend this community to other families.

Initial transition into the residence was not a smooth and coordinated as I would have expected. However, the property, staff and food are good. There were some challenges coordinating and understanding who to discuss concerns related to care, medications, etc; so I would end up contacting multiple staff with my questions. I have since received additional guidance around who is responsible for handling patient care, administration of medication, housekeeping, etc so I feel better about my decision to move my family member here. There are several activities scheduled every day; great tasting, healthy meals and friendly staff. I wish there were more nurses on duty though especially on weekends and evenings. Overall, the facility and property are clean and properly maintained. Staff are friendly and helpful and really seem to care about their residents and their families. I have peace of mind knowing that my parent is safe, eating the right things and taking medication as described. I love the diversity of the community and the staff as it is a great reflection of the neighborhood where we live.

I was searching for a senior assisted living facility for my elderly parents that have been living with me for the past 13 years. The Hamptons at Meadows Place was very accommodating when it spoke of meeting my families needs, my mom has a dog that is her life line and they were willing to give it a try. They worked at meeting our financial needs and said all the right things to make us choose them as my parents next home. These first 3 weeks have been challenging as we all work towards finding a workable routine for my parents. The promises made toward their care has been slow in coming as the adjustment to my mom’s dog has been challenging. There is no procedure for new residents to welcome them and make them feel wanted. Three weeks in and I’m still unsure who is to take care of and aide my parents on a daily bases, a “team” atmosphere is missing. It would go along way if new residents were assigned one person they could go to for answers and someone to show them and their family how things work. The administrative staff has been good at listening to my frustration but slow in my opinion to following through on solving the problems. When it comes to providing for your elderly parents time is of the essence. My other lower rating is on the catagory of activities. There seems to be a lack of communication as to the how, when and where. The activities are not varied so if you don’t play games, cards, or watch movies there is little for you to do. I have and continue to remain involved daily with the transition and do believe that though the level of care is not what I expected, we will get there. At no time have I felt that they are in danger.
