The Cottages at Meridian

R.J.

The Cottages of Meridian was very nice. The memory care was a homelike atmosphere and the people were nice. They have a nice living room area too, that had a piano in it. So, it was really cute and homey.

I have just moved my mom into The Cottages at Meridian. There are two cottages, one for memory care and one for assisted living. They're both set up like nice cozy houses. They got fireplaces, and the bedrooms are really big. Because of Covid, we couldn't go in to set my mom's room up for her, but they did that and it's just beautiful. She walked in and she was just so stunned by how beautiful and big it was. The people there are extremely sweet and professional. They're very loving to their residents. It's a really good experience working with them. They were fast and quick because they knew that I needed one pretty quick. It's a really nice place. I have all good things to say about them. They're excellent. They're just very kind, very nice, very patient, and very loving. You can see them interact with the people. When I left there, I felt very confident that my mom is in good hands. My mom's room doesn't look like a studio. It is a bedroom with a bathroom attached, and it's pretty big. It has a closet and a little nook with a window in it. She puts her recliner and her TV in there. It's the same for every resident, but there might be different floor plans. The hallways are short because it's family style, so you don't have to walk a long distance. They have a salon. They have manicure, which is really important to my mom. They have reading out loud, exercises, movie matinees with snacks, trivia day, bible studies, and sing-a-long. They have breakfast, and they have what they call Calming Breakfast music. They have lots of arts and crafts, bingo, morning mingle, and group sharing. Some of the activities are limited because of Covid, but they make sure that the people aren't just sitting around. They have different things for them. I have come at different times and have seen them do different things. At this point, I would rate them excellent, which is the highest rating so far.
