Aristacare at Meadow Springs

Interactions with staff is minimal. They do not approach family members to engage in conversation. Staff gives incorrect information about doctors appointments ,and visits . Difficult to arrange appointment with a doctor. Family members must take the initiative on all matters and be proactive.

I would not recommend leaving anyone you care about here. Old and dirty building and the majority of the staff is horrible. The CNAs, with a couple exceptions, are the worst. They do the bare minimum here. They are lazy, rude, nasty, and unprofessional. They have a sign out on the street advertising that they are hiring CNAs which they leave up all the time and it’s obvious that they hire literally anyone off the street. Don’t listen to the hype they feed you pre-admission-this place is nothing like they claim it is.

more communication with immediate family. Things seem to move a little slow there but we will see if it gets better. I'll update in a couple weeks. Not very impressed yet.

One of the most impressive notes I can make on this facililty is their diligent contact with family members of the residents. It is clear this is a priority with them; if there was some little stride toward the positive, or if it seemed as if there was or could possibly be a problem arising, they did not wait or keep the family in suspense. It appears the entire staff is on the same page concerning family communication. This, in itself, is a gift which isn't easy to come by. Also, I have seen them take the effort to keep dignity in tack by having the residents dressed for the day, rather then taking the easy way out and keeping them in bed clothes.
