Our hope was always that our Mom, age 95, would be able to remain living with family for her whole life. After 3 hospitalizations in a 7 week time frame, we could no longer provide the skilled nursing care that she needed on a regular basis. She spent the last three months of her life at Ridge Crest at Meadow Ridge. There is no way to express the incredible gratefulness our family has for Ridge Crest. It was difficult to watch our Mom's health decline. But the care she received there gave us comfort and peace of mind. Every staff member, whether nurses, doctors, aides or wait staff treated our Mom with compassion, patience, dignity and respect. And this was not unique to her as I observed this over and over again as I watched them interact with the other residents there. Over the last ten years my Mom had to go for short stays at three other rehab places--two in Pennsylvania and one other in Connecticut. So we have a frame of reference for comparison. Ridge Crest is so superior in every way. If you aren't able to keep your loved one at home, this is where you want them to be. Thank-you Ridge Crest for everything you did for our Mom.

Meadow Ridge was lovely, and people were very cordial and hospitable. We have friends who live there, and they're very happy. We ate there a couple of times, the food was well-prepared, nicely served and the portions were just right. The people on the desk were very cordial and welcoming. They have a full list of amenities, library, grocery store, salon, a pool, and a couple dining rooms. They also have places for people to walk, and dogs were welcome. It was a well-equipped community, everything was very clean and orderly. The layout was spacious, there are lots of room, so you didn't feel crowded or anything.

Meadow Ridge has beautiful facilities. They're very good and showed me everything. You have to buy in there; it's not rental. They have gorgeous apartments, they are just very beautiful, they outfit everything for you so you go in with all new appliances, and they're large. They have all kinds of activities, and they're very supportive. It's a lovely place. It's aimed at people who are pretty well-heeled, and you buy in.

What a pleasure it has been to join the community at Meadow Ridge. The setting is superb with views of distant hills (especially in the fall with all the colors). Everything is light and bright with numerous amenities. The atmosphere is most satisfying and truly enjoyable.

I moved to Meadow Ridge after looking at many communities in Westchester and Connecticut. As soon as I saw Meadow Ridge I felt that it was the most upbeat place I had seen. It was set in a beautiful rural setting and yet not far from stores, shopping, and grocery stores. The residents are friendly, varied and interesting; the staff is caring and eager to help. This was the best move I ever made!!!!!!

Meadow Ridge was very luxurious and felt more like a resort. The staff was very helpful. They had plenty of activities available, though some of them cost extra. The food and the dining area were excellent. Definitely a five-star place all the way.

I've been to Meadow Ridge at Redding for a visit. It's all beautiful and wonderful, but I can't afford it. It's very expensive. The apartments are gorgeous. They are very large. They have a full kitchen. They serve you two meals a day. It's a luxurious place. Most of all, they have some wonderful activities.

My husband hasn't spent much time at Meadow Ridge, but the staff there seems to treat the residents with respect. They have a variety of support in terms of physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy. They have a very extensive nutrition and food service. Frankly, they have an exceptionally strong food. The environment is exceptionally nice because it is a part of a total independent living, assisted living, and skilled nursing facility. It is not just a nursing home. It is a very affluent kind of three stage elder living plan, but you can go into the skilled nursing part without being in the other aspect of their housing system. It is nice, and the rooms are very nice. It is as nice as those places can be. The rooms are very nicely furnished, clean, and bright. They don't have a medical feeling and more like homey feeling. It is a nice environment.

The scenery in Meadow Ridge is fantastic. This is the nicest facility I've visited, but it's just a long drive to my daughter's house. The building is beautiful, there's an isolated area with a lot of foliage around the beautiful grounds and a lovely atrium in the center where they can have parties. The rooms are nice, smaller but adequate. The facility has an open dining room and the food there is nice. They have friendly staff too.
