Nursing Home Communities in Meyersdale, PA

"My husband is in Meadow View Nursing Center now. They're wonderful over there. Any little thing happens or whatever, they call me. Right now, during COVID, it's very difficult trying to see them, but they make it to where we can see them for 15 minutes a day. They bring them down in a room and we can see them for 15 minutes, which is nice. I think a lot of nursing homes are doing that now because we couldn't see them at all. We weren't even allowed in the building. The staff is wonderful there. They are all really nice and fantastic. I got to know them now pretty good because they're the same ones. I just can't say enough about the staff. My husband seems to like the food because they tell me that he eats everything they bring him, lunch and dinner. I haven't been over while he was eating, but they tell me. He eats all his meals and they say he eats everything, so evidently it must be good. We have three nursing homes around where I live and I picked them just because my daughter's husband's grandparents were there, and I got to experience that because we went over there before COVID. We visitd all the time and just watched them with the staff. The floor is an all Alzheimer's patients' floor. I picked that because I saw firsthand how it was."

"Goodwill Community has almost every one of the extensive care facilities that I can be at and I like that. It is very well set out. Their apartments were actually bigger and there were garages available. I like that feature. I like this facility generally, but it is not run by rent. It is a buy-in community, so I had to come up with a large amount of money and that is not something I can do. "

"My experience with this nursing and rehab facility was as pleasant as one could expect it to be. The staff took great care of my father, adequately treating and assisting him with his everyday needs. He liked the food as they were served three meals per day with added treats and snacks upon request. They provided plenty of entertainment and activities for the residents to participate in, keeping a calender of events handy for preparing. The living space is a bit small when you factor in two people sharing a room, but this has been the norm at any nursing home I've ever been to. The have a decent-sized cafeteria and a cozy community area furnished with a tv and more seating. When my father had a large number of visitors at one time, the living are was where we gathered.This facility had routine specialists visit to offer their services to the residents, such as getting a haircut and nail grooming. All the nurses that we encountered were very polite and professional while making the residents' stays as enjoyable as possible.The parking can be a problem for visitors if you plan to come during the busy weekday hours as the spots go quickly and can leave you searching for a space at a bit of a walking distance. This can be avoided by visiting in the evening when the staff at some of the other areas in the building have finished for the day. If you or a loved one ever need the services of a nursing home, I would give this facility a try. They make you feel welcomed and like part of their community, large in part to some of the friendliest people I've ever encountered -- the other residents already living in the home. They were quick to introduce themselves and make us feel as part of their already tight group. Neighbors are a big factor in a pleasant living environment, and this place has a treasure's worth of fine citizens that will open their arms to you. That, to me, is probably the greatest draw of all. "

"We visited Frostburg when they had just opened. It wasn't very large and we found it seemed very nice. The people who lived there were happy. They may have an Alzheimer's unit as well as apartments for independent living. They have help and meals if you need it. There were no showers in the rooms; they help you bathe there. "

"My friend was at Patriot, A Choice Community for just a 10-day rehab. Their food was good. Their care was adequate. Their physical therapy department was phenomenal. It had three floors. The first floor was rehab. The second floor was more of a personal care home. The third floor was skilled nursing. My friend's room was OK. It was generic and institutional like."

"the staff greeted me upon arrival, but when i visted my relative no nurses or staff came in to check on my relative for the whole 3 hours we were there. facility was clean and well maintained "
