When we found Meadowstone, we found everything we needed - beautiful modern apt, great food, super activities, friendly people who are now our new family. We are blessed to call Meadowstone our home!!!

On my initial visit to Meadowstone, I was impressed that the office staff knew everyone we passed on our tour by name; that the clubhouse was a very active center for the residents; the daily newspaper was being read in the library; and all the treadmills and exercise machines were in motion. this is a very active, alert community of involved neighbors. --My kind of live life to the full-every day!

Staff and managment have been onwilling to take quick action on a new very slippery surface around the complex. Given the severity of this problem, I would be very concerned about the safety of residents or vistors during wet weather....This short sidedness of resident safety shows profit is more important than safety. While they celebrate their ranking, others could be breaking hips on the next rain. Warren

We appreciate your concerns and are working diligently to resolve your issue. We have been in constant communication with the manufacturer and the installer over the last 30 days. We have had numerous meetings at the site with both to arrive at a solution. The safety of the residents is a top priority. The installed product was manufactured by IB roof systems and it was represented to us in writing that the product is slip resistant however given your concerns and the concerns of the staff we have asked them to find a product that can be insatlled on top of the system that would adhere to the existing product and resolve the issue. We hope to have a sample for testing within the week. We apologize that you feel we have not been responsive to your conerns but we have been working towards a resolution. Feel free to contact us about this issue or any other issues so we can provide the best experience possible for you and your family. Sincerely- Meadowstone Place.

As I write this post it is difficult to recommend Meadowstone Place to anyone right now because of a safety concern. Over the past year a new flooring was put down on all the 2nd floor walkways. A black turf flooring was replaced by a linoleum appearing flooring which is slippery with any condensation. During a visit the week of Thanksgiving, not only were there puddles but also patches of ice. I have photos but I do not think this site has a way for me to post them. Several calls have been placed to the management at the property in addition to email, but there has not been any response that has implied agreement with our concerns and no communication that the flooring will be changed. After working in an emergency room for 30 years, it is surely no secret that a fall in an elderly person can often result in a broken hip and end up being the event that ends ones independence and even lead to complications that could cause their death. I am extremely concerned for all residents there and I believe this issue should be immediately addressed and something done. If we do not see action taken then we will report the safety concern to appropriate regulatory agencies. Sincerely, JD

Thank you for letting us know your concerns JD. The new walkway material was installed over the summer months and was recommended as a slip resistant waterproofing system for the walkways by the manufacturer, IB Roofing and the installer, Horn Brothers. As the weather changed, the staff and residents have voiced their concerns and we have been working with IB Roofing systems to resolve this issue. They are testing a prodcut which will be applied to the surface of the walkway to address this issue but not compromise the waterproof features of the product and thus the stability of the walkway. The residents safety is a top priority and we take your concerns very seriously and regret that you are unhappy with our progress. We will improve our communications with the residents and their families so they will be aware of all of our efforts to resolve this issue. Sincerely - Meadowstone Place.

I instantly gained ALOT of new good friends when I made Meadowstone Place my home. What stands out is that all the residents are happy and are very active. Also, You can find activities to choose from (Great Director), get transportation to doctors, stores, events (Wonderful Driver), eat outstanding meals if you desire(Chefs care about us and look out for our diets), and of course, you get the best attention from the office staff (The gals up front really like us!) Don't forget all the little fix-its (The maintenance boys are always on the spot and wow, do they smile doing it!) I don't think there is any place better.

This is a wonderful residence. The staff and residents all care about one another; so much so, that during an absence from home, they called to see if my sister was alright because she had not returned as planned. The residents visit one another often, and go to activities outside the facility, as well as participate in planned activities within. These activities are resident driven. The residents are not required to take the food plan. The chef's alter food selections when prompted by the residents. The facility is well cared for, and the maintenance staff cheerfully jumps to it whenever something needs fixing. When my sister moved in, they altered a doorway so she could accommodate an appliance that she brought with her.
