Providence Meadows Gracious Retirement Living

When we toured Providence Meadows Gracious Retirement Living, we met with the head manager and another female staff. They both led us on a tour of the whole facility and that was quite enlightening. We saw several different types of rooms, a one-bedroom, one-bedroom deluxe, and two different types of two-bedrooms. They all would serve us well if we were to go there. We saw some of the residents that were involved in an exercise situation. They also had a place where they could play poker/card games. There was a pool table and a rec room where they were doing physical therapy. The facility was excellent and well taken care of.

My friend is now at Providence Meadows Gracious Retirement Living. The place looks very nice, very well maintained, and seems to be new. The dining room is like a resort-style cruise, they feel just like you're on a cruise ship. They'll take you anywhere if you sign up, they use the little bus that would take you within a six-mile radius like to any of your doctor's appointments. They always have outings once a week, they have activities daily, they have a calendar, and they do movies daily. It seems like they have a lot of activities like bingo, and cornhole, they'll do puzzles, they'll go to dinners or breakfast, and they'll go to the Billy Graham Center or a museum. They play poker and other types of card games, bunco, they do raffles and they use fake Monopoly money. The staff keeps up his room, somebody comes in there and they clean once a week. Everybody seems to be nice, some of the staff are more productive than others. I hear a lot of them complain about the food, but I've eaten there and I think they're just really picky.

My ex-husband is currently at Providence Meadows Gracious Retirement Living. It's working well for him. It's a smaller community than some that we looked at. It's just a good situation for him right now. He's doing some exercise classes, and he's doing some other things, but I'm not sure of all of activities. Actually, my sons are the ones that probably would know more, but he is staying busy from what I understand. He has a studio and it's a fairly large studio. There's a full-sized refrigerator. It meets his needs, and he's on the ground floor. He doesn't have any complaint with the staff. They're probably pretty good. He is very happy there. He doesn't seem to have too many complaints with the food.

I've looked at Providence Meadows Gracious Retirement Living. It was great, it was very luxurious, with a lot of amenities but it was just unaffordable for my dad. I toured their independent living and they have everything you could ever need or want there. The staff was great, he was very informative and showed me all around. They had a gym, a movie theater, a game room, and I think they have a pool now. They also had a chapel right on site, which was nice. It was very clean. The place is near a lot of restaurants so it's very convenient.

I moved into Providence Meadows Gracious Retirement Living four months ago. It's three minutes from my daughter. This was the most reasonably priced. They offer three meals a day, and you can get help if you want with additional cost. They're very caring, and I have no complaints. There are activities all the time. The room is brand new, so it was spic and span, and the laundry is not in the room, but in the hall. They've got everything you need, like a chapel, board games, puzzles, and Mahjong. The meals are pretty good, and there's always something for a second choice. I highly recommend it if you don't need help.
