Assisted Living Reviews for Meridian At Lantana

January 16, 2022

By Jennifer

I visited this facility

I toured the Meridian At Lantana. The staff seems relatively friendly; although, I didn't interact with them as much as I did at the other place. I liked that they also had rooms on the first floor, so they also had access to the outdoor area. They seem to have activities. They didn't offer religious services at the time. Another negative would be that they're in the process of remodeling. It didn't seem OK. It was also a little deteriorated, but not as bad as the other place I saw. They have to remodel, and I saw that they're in the process of it (which shows the direction is good). They had a hair salon and a pool. They offered exercise classes, but not a gym. They had games and cocktails hours. They also had a pub, but it was in the process of being remodeled.

Provider Response

Jennifer, we really appreciate your feedback! If you ever need anything else from us, please feel free to give us a call or stop by. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

The rooms are a decent size but they have not been renovated in YEARS. The carpeting in the halls and the main areas are also old and outdated. The turnover of staff is so high that it is difficult to cultivate a relationship with the people who serve you in the dining room and who bring meds every day since they don’t stay very long and often say that they are not happy working for Pacifica. When Pacifica took over Atria, the food took a dramatic turn for the worse and the portions were made smaller, sometime not enough to feed an adult man. They run out of basics, like milk the kitchen staff almost always seems like they would prefer to be anywhere else, but working there. The activities are ok and are well attended like the musical events, painting and flower arranging. There are not enough stair exits or large enough elevators (they only hold 2 wheelchairs or one scooter). There would be a problem if there was a fire. Overall, I would NOT recommend this facility and I would recommend they take a long hard look at overhauling the entire place.

Provider Response

The Meridian At Lantana was our favorite. It was well run and clean. It looks like a nice place to live. They have a very friendly staff. They gave us a menu. They actually gave us a little muffin to take home, which I thought was very nice. The food looked great. It was a great facility. They took temperatures. They wore masks. They were very careful of their residents. There's a very good chance my brother will go there.

When the medical issues piled up, we managed for nearly a year in the midst of the pandemic, but it became obvious that we needed 24 hour assistance for both parents. Meridian provides that, and more. Our parents moved to Meridian in December, and our experiences continue to be very positive. The entire staff at Meridian has been kind, polite, friendly and professional and they have made a difficult, emotional transition smoother than we thought possible. The apartment is nice and cozy and the courtyards provide calming views of beautiful nature. Building upgrades are in progress, and meals are always fresh. The staff keeps us posted when there is a fall or wounds need tending. More than all of that, is the peace of mind knowing that compassionate care is provided for our loved ones when they need it most.

Hi Ccbm, thank you very much for taking the time to leave us this positive review for our team at Meridian at Lantana. We appreciate it & so do our other reviewers at Caring. We hope to see you again soon!

I visited several communities looking for a place for my Father-in-law. He lives in NY and we were going to bring him down here to live near us and give my Sister-in-law a break. I worked with Jennifer in Sales for a while as we felt The Meridian at Lantana was the best place for Pops. We found it to be homey, cozy, and not too big and overwhelming. The staff was friendly and everyone seemed genuinely happy. Even though my Father-in-law did not end up moving down (he had a decline), I wanted to write a review because everyone went out of their way to help coordinate what we needed such as multiple virtual tours with our family up north and the doctor's orders. I would have felt peace of mind had my Father-in-law moved in to the Meridian at Lantana.

The staff is really great. I walk down the hallway and the boss of the place always says hello. The lady in the financial office always says hi when I walk by. The people that take care of my friend are always nice to her and to me when I visit. I had the food a couple times. It was really good. They always have fun stuff happening too. I think if they did a face lift on the place there wouldnt be any other improvements they could make

My mom and dad have moved into Meridian At Lantana. The experience is somewhat limited, but they seem to be following through on everything. My dad is good with everything, but my mom got the onset of dementia so she is not cooperative as my dad. But I think they're being treated well. My mom did say, "I don't have to cook or clean. They do laundry, they make my bed." She is happy with that, I guess. I ended up picking Lantana because it's close to where the condominium that they own. It's close to where they used to live. When I did the virtual tour, their room was going to be on the ground floor, which is a plus. They had like a sliding door that goes out into a courtyard which is like a big canopy of oak trees, and it was really beautiful. It's an older facility. The reviews that I read were good. I think they stand up to what their reviews are. So far, they have been very receptive. My mom has fallen a couple of times because she has trouble walking, and they immediately called me, and let me know that she fell, and that she's not hurt or anything but she did fall. I was pretty impressed by that. They have done everything I've asked. My parents seem to love the food. My mother has turned into an eating machine, according to my dad. The food is good. My parents are not as active as they should be, but I know they offer the activities. It's expensive, but they were willing to give me a discount. They have like $1500 one-time fee, and they basically gave me a $1500 credit on the first month's rent so I'd say the value is pretty good.

The staff is very caring. They always say hello and made sure my Gram and the other residents feel like it is THEIR home. The rooms are spacious with a lot of storage space and have a good variety of sizes. My Gram didn't have to worry about cooking-they have restaurant-style dining serving 3 meals a day. The food off of the grill is always good and fresh--especially the chicken, which is hard to find. Weekly linen and housekeeping services, transportation to doctors, 24 hr concierge, pool, and jacuzzi. She loved all of the activities--there was always something fun going on. She really liked it there.

Independent Living Reviews for Meridian At Lantana

August 20, 2021

By Michael

I am/was a resident of this facility

I moved into Meridian at Lantana 3 weeks ago. I think it's neat and it's clean. The staff is pretty good. You know in those places, you get some residents that are okay and some that are not just how it is, but overall, it's not bad. I'm in independent living. They offer 3 meals a day. They offer transportation to the supermarket twice a week, and the doctor's appointments and stuff like that. All you gotta do is go to the front desk and sign a book and let the receptionist know what you have to do and they will take care of it. They offer activities for seniors, not for somebody as young as me, but older folks. If you're a veteran, they give you a discount. For a studio, what I have is pretty large. It's got a balcony, a kitchenette, a large bedroom, a handicapped-accessible bathroom, obviously, and it's $2800 a month. They clean your room once a week. They do your laundry once a week. If you're a friendly person, you should go ask the front desk, they'll help you with whatever you need, all you gotta do is ask.

Provider Response

Thank you again for taking the time to let us know how we did. We hope you have a great day!

I visited this facility

I toured Meridian at Lantana for my wife, and it was very nice. My issue is we're both sixty-nine, and I felt like I would be a bull in a china shop. The thing that I didn't like, and it's nothing personal against them, is you have an apartment, but you aren't allowed to have a stove, a hot plate, or even a toaster oven. I don't have Alzheimer's or anything, and I am capable of using a stove so far, but who knows what will happen down the road. I understand why they would do that, but that was one of the things that totally turned me off to the place. The whole place was nice, and I'm sure it was for the right people. The person who assisted us was very hospitable and very nice. To me, the smallest room was very small; it was maybe 600 square feet. Then she showed us a bigger one, and that would have been adequate. The place was very nice, very clean, and very livable. Our house was 3000 square feet, so to jump down to a little 600-square-foot room without a stove would have been rough, and I just couldn't do it. They don't allow a stove, but you have a little refrigerator and a microwave. I understand that your meals were in the cafeteria. I didn't go into the dining area; I just looked through the window and it was nice. There were activities, but because of COVID it was extremely limited. They had a pool and a big area where you could sit outside, so I'm sure they had a lot of different things. I did notice it was extremely limited, and I understand it was because of COVID, so I never really looked into it that closely. For me personally, because they have no stove, you're not really independent. You're really dependent on their dining area, and you have to eat when they're serving each meal -- breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I didn't eat there, but they gave me a big chocolate-chip cookie just for coming, and they were very good; they're like super excellent. I have a feeling the food was probably very good there.

Meridian at Lantana was very old. The tour was bad. I did not care for it at all. We saw the whole place. It was just one big old facility. The apartments and the rooms are very old. Everything is included. They have housekeeping (and they change the linens), cable, and three meals a day. It was just not what we were looking for.

Provider Response

We'd like the opportunity to discuss your review, so if you're willing, please contact our Executive Director. We hope to hear from you to resolve this matter.

I'm definitely going into Meridian at Lantana independent living. I was able to visit, and I liked everything about it. They were doing some renovations on the rooms and the pool area. I was able to get a good look at everything, and it's very homey. It looked nice and clean. It wasn't too big, and I didn't want a large place. I was very satisfied with the staff and the people I talked to, so I'm set: this is where I'm definitely going. Because of COVID, their dining area is limited just to residents, so they made me a lovely lunch to-go when I left, and they have a very good chef. When I was there, people were sitting, talking, and walking. They have a lovely courtyard where they could walk around. They also have a lot of activities that are available. The layout of the facility is exactly what I want; I liked that very much. I didn't see all the rooms and everything, but it looked generally clean overall. That's why I decided I'm going there.

I like Meridian at Lantana very much. I saw both assisted living and independent. I was very impressed with it. It's smaller, it's not one of those huge places, but it's very nice. I like the location. I like everything. I like the fact that it's homey and cozy, and not big and impersonal. I like the people there that I met. They're doing major renovations on the rooms, the courtyard, and the pool, and it looks like it's gonna be really beautiful. I didn't see a whole lot of the staff, and with the virus, they're having to cut back on some things. I had lunch at that time, and they had a very good chef.

My mother-in-law was in Meridian At Lantana before, and I visited her there quite frequently. I toured that facility before the pandemic, and I just think a smaller community is more beneficial for her. It was a very large facility. We didn't have any problems with any of the staff members there; they were always very helpful. There was one nurse that worked there that for whatever reason didn't like my mother-in-law, and so we got some calls frequently saying that we needed to come down, which was a four-hour, one-way trip for us to get there, and when we would get there there would be nothing wrong. It was an older facility, they did their best to maintain it the best they could, but her room was a lot smaller than where she is now. She did have a porch, but it wasn't screened-in. If you're familiar with Florida, we have a lot of mosquitos, we have a lot of bugs, so you really need to have a screened-in porch.

Provider Response

Hi Sherry, thank you for your feedback and lengthy detailed review. We are extremely disappointed to see your low 3 star rating as we strive for 5 stars. As you know we are now under new ownership and would like to thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. Our team strives daily to the best of our ability to deliver an excellent experience and we take great pride in what we do. We would like to speak with you more regarding the calls about your mother in law so that we can remedy the situation. We are always striving to improve our service to the senior living community and look forward to speaking with you.
