Don't be deceived by its beauty. Talk to the "memory care" residents. When my grandfather arrived at the "memory care" wing of Meadow Brook, staff updated me by email that he was happily pushing people in wheelchairs because he was doing so well. This was easy for me to believe, because he had done so well during his month at a skilled nursing facility once released from a couple weeks in the hospital due to an infection. But it was downhill from there—more than likely due to Meadow Brook's near-complete lack of memory care activities, its emphasis on apartment-style living that increases isolation, and its use of benzodiazepines/pharmacological restraint in general (something I questioned in particular that they refused to respond to unlike other facilities I asked). As my dad put it from what he saw multiple times in the "memory care" wing's (beautiful) day room: "They were all zombies who couldn't even hold their heads up." My grandfather fell 12 times (that we know of) in his month and a half at Meadow Brook. He developed acute encephalopathy, a subdural hematoma, at least one UTI and was sent to a psychiatric hospital to get his "meds figured out." Yet, he kept going because he had always loved life and had hope. Unfortunately, that hope was unfounded. His first POA refused to move him to another facility—even when Meadow Brook eventually urged her to do so once the Department of Health and Adult Protective Service were contacted—and Meadow Brook never contacted his successor POAs when moving him was a matter of life or death (he, in fact, died two weeks ago Sunday) and, therefore, superseded HIPAA regulations. After my grandfather's final fall at Meadow Brook, he was taken to the hospital yet again. It was one fall too many. The bright spot of this post is that I convinced his POA to release him to a skilled nursing facility down the street. Skilled nurses and hospice workers in that facility's memory care unit showed him the utmost respect and dignity during his final week and a half of life. If you're thinking of sending your loved one to Meadow Brook for memory care, please don't. Or at least educate yourself based on complaint records with the State and also tour the facility morning, noon and night at unplanned times. I gave Meadow Brook two stars only because I have no experience with its assisted living portion, which is where all the amenities are.

Meadow Brook, and their commitment to excellence is truly commendable. The team's dedication to supporting one another and the residents is evident in every interaction. The atmosphere at Meadow Brook exudes warmth and genuine care. It's clear that the staff goes above and beyond to create a nurturing environment for all. The residents are treated with the utmost respect and compassion, making Meadow Brook truly stand out. I am proud to be a part of such an outstanding team and witness the positive impact we have on the lives of our residents. Meadow Brook sets the standard for excellence in senior care, and I am grateful to contribute to this exceptional community.

Amazing facility!! It has been over 1 year that my mother and father moved to Meadow Brook Senior Living, and it was the best move they ever made. The facility itself is warm and inviting, but it is the people that make Meadow Brook stand out. From the time you enter the doors and are greeted by the concierge desk, to the aids, nurses, management, food service and maintenance staff - they care for my parents and share in their lives daily. It wasn’t long, after my parent’s arrival, that my mother’s dementia progressed to a level that she needed additional care. Her transition to the Memory Care location was seamless and exactly what she needed. My father walks down to visit her twice a day, and then returns to assisted living, knowing that she is loved and cared for. This is a tremendous stress relief, off my father and a burden of care that is passes on to the staff. Megan Clark is the Memory Care Director and is the absolute best at running a great facility. Her daily/weekly communication and care toward both of my parents is second to none. Her relationship with my parent’s has become very much like that of a family member. I can’t say enough positive things about Meadow Brook Assisted living. My parents are happy, and for that I am forever grateful.

It's been a little over a year ago that my parents moved to assisted living at Meadowbrook. It is a very nice facility:clean and welcoming; however it is the individuals who work there who are the heart and soul of Meadowbrook. The concierge staff is friendly and helpful. Anne Marie who oversees the kitchen and dining room is kind annd accommodating. My mom and dad love the soups and desserts she makes and whenever they have fish. Kirsten in the billing office is always helpful with anything we need and has a smile at all times. Penny, the activity director is very creative and involved with the residents. Last but not least is Sam. He is the Jack of all trades, wears multiple hats and does everything he's asked to do and more. He treats my parents like family going above and beyond with anything they need; from hanging a mirror,to putting down nonskid strips in the shower. He's kind and compassionate and has a great sense of humor. You can't put a price on all he does. I want Traditions to know how lucky they are to have this staff and to appreciate them.

I cannot say enough good things about the Memory Care unit and team at Meadow Brook. My father has thrived and enjoys the day to day activities and interaction from the team members. We had several options to choose from and we know with 100% certainty that we landed in the best place. I highly recommend the Meadow Brook Memory Care unit if you are considering a long term care facility for your loved one.

I am very happy with the care my husband has been given at Meadow Brook! He loves the activities being provided. Clay salutes Jim as a veteran every time he sees him. Jim will smile the rest of the day! Megan Clark has also been a blessing. She is always there to provide guidance and answers to questions. I appreciate all the help and understanding she gives me. I am learning about Alzheimer's as the disease progresses. This is such a hard time in any caregiver's life. I try to remember all the good times my husband and I had in the last 54 years! He is a good man. I have been fulfilled with many blessings!

We are grateful for the care my sister received at Meadow Brook. She was well cared for and supported during the end of her life. She was kept engaged socially and respected as an individual. We never saw staff on their phones or sitting around rather being productive and attentive toward her needs as well as others’.

While I have little experience with other facilities, I am becoming increasingly disappointed with continual changes in staff. Our family has needed to find private help for both mornings and evenings to maintain consistency. While I do not have the expectation of a 5 star restaurant, it is very disheartening at the lack of fresh ingredients and the fact that most "in room" service is food that has gone cold. There are minimal choices. While the website says the facility is open 24 hours, it is increasingly hard to get a staff member to answer the phone after 8 pm. I have also been told by a staff member that there is only one staff member in the building at night. Surely this isn't true. While I know little about the Memory Care unit, I do know that in Assisted Living in the evening and night, staff is very hard to find. When new management came in, no one introduced themselves and I am there daily. Is this the norm in the industry?

Meadow Brook has been a God-send for my family. My Dad (who has Alzheimer's Dementia) was not getting the care he needed at his prior residence. So much so, that when the lovey folks at Meadow Brook stated he needed to be in Memory Care, I was shocked and honestly, not my best self. Mauree and her team were so patient with me, even when I was highly defensive and scared. Mauree and Megan truly care about their residents and do everything they can to be fair and equitable while also making it a special stay for your family. I owe a lot to them...and I'm so blessed and grateful they are in our lives.

My husband and I lived here at Meadow Brook for a year and when we decided that we really needed assisted living we moved right back! The staff is so kind and caring and always lets us know they are here for us! Mauree, our Executive Director, steps in and assists in any area needed whether it be housekeeping, food service, administrative work or as an LPN passing out meds. She is so polite and caring and professional with residents, staff and visitors. We are super happy with Meadow Brook!

We have toured several places and this one stands out! The moment we walked in we were greeted by an upbeat person at the front desk. As we walked through the community, everyone we encountered was so warm and welcoming. The building was very clean, updated and well maintained. The apartments are beautiful and spacious. There were no odors anywhere like other places we have visited. What stood out the most to us was how the Executive Director of Meadowbrook took the time to meet us and learn about our loved one. We have not experienced this at any other senior living facility. She thanked us for visiting and gave us her card to reach out to her directly if we had any questions.

I am so very grateful for Meadowbrook Memory Care! My father was treated with dignity, kindness, and respect during his stay. The staff knew HIM, his likes, his dislikes, his history, his love of family, and they built his plan of care based on these things. This knowledge and understanding combined with empathy and compassion made his transition from his home of 45 years and his wife of 60 the best it could be. I was thankful they kept me informed when I visited and called me with updates. The pandemic lockdown was so difficult. I hated that I couldnt visit everyday but the management and staff worked to keep everyone safe and assured. (I know this was even more work for them!) They shared sweet stories and updates about my father reassuring me he was safe and cared for. I never once felt like I was a burden to the staff as I called, window visited, or dropped care packages off. I am thankful for all the staff and management did for my father and for my mother and me.

This place has been a refuge for my family. My mom was living alone at home and just not thriving and a severe safety risk. I was at the end of my rope and started touring. I looked at 4 different communities and chose Meadowbrook based off first impressions as you just have too... I am glad i did! My first impressions told me Meadow Brook is a clean, active, caring community that will do the best they can to meet the needs of families and residents. The apartments are extremely nice, much larger than any place we toured. The vibe is modern and comfortable which is different from other communities i toured as well that had more of the "old fashioned" feel. The staff assisted with the move by offering advice and techniques to get my mom moved in with much interruption or fanfare. They know me and I know them which is a comforting feeling. Space-Check. Looks-Check. Staff-Check. I owe a lot to Meadow Brook.

I love Meadow Brook! The company I work for often visits and works alongside the staff there. Their leadership is strong - lots of professional experienced managers! And, the community is beautiful - it's always clean (and, always smells clean too!). And, it seems like every time I visit, the residents that live there are out in the lobby, activity rooms or dining room - they really seem to enjoy living there.

Everyone and everything was top of the line while attending to my 81 year old Father during his 30 day respite care after his rehabilitation and hospitalization due to a fall related to seizures from an inoperable brain tumor. It may have been routine for them, but it seemed to me that the staff took extraordinary measures to ensure he was well attended to and that he stayed on his recovery and medication regimen, despite himself. He is now in an apartment that is near me where I can look in on him daily. He looks very fondly on the days that he spent at Meadow Brook, or in his words, "that resort hotel". When the time comes, Meadow Brook is at the top of my list for future care.

My siblings and I moved our precious mother into Meadow Brook about two months ago. Moving her from her home, that she had lived in for 65 years, into assisted living wasn't an easy decision, but it was the right one. After carefully researching and touring many facilities, we chose Meadow Brook and have not regretted our decision at all. All of the wonderful things that we were told during our orientation are true. The staff, from the director on down is excellent. The food is delicious, building is clean, medical care is easily accessible and the residents appear to be happy. We're glad that Mom is living at Meadow Brook.

I visited 17 senior/assisted living facilities looking for a place for my mother after she broke her hip. Meadow Brook was my choice. All the staff are kind and generous with their time and knowledge. Derek Burton, director of community relations, gave me a tour of the facilities and all the amenities Meadow Brook offers. He was considerate and kind and genuinely cared about my mother and me. Edna Domingo, director of Meadow Brook, was a terrific help when my mother was moved from assisted living to the memory care unit. I was out of town and she spent a lot of time on the phone with me during work hours and after work helping to understand what was going on. She was SO PATIENT and when I got back to town, my mom was moved and happy again. Thank you Meadow Brook!!!!!

Wow, Meadow Brook Senior Living Community has been an answer to our prayer for my mom. She has thrived in this community due to the attentive staff, activities, special performances, the safety and respect provided. Initially it can be so emotional moving a parent into a senior community. The staff provided me great advise and suggestions for making this life transition. My mom moved into Assisted Living and enrolled in the Resident's Club when she first moved in. The Resident's Club was the key to acclimating and giving her a new best fun friend with Jodi who heads that program. We have found that the size of the community is ideal for personal individual interaction. Mom is greeted by name, loves the food, her apartment is adorable, she's enjoying visiting with the other residents and staff who are lovely. She has been healthy, I see how the professionals strive to maintain that healthy environment. I have great confidence in the staff, there are many eyes on the residents making sure they are well cared for, while allowing for their independence. The front desk staff provide the first of the friendly interactions. The nursing staff has kept in touch with me about any concerns they see and they followup with what needs to be attended to. I've been very impressed with the nurses, aides, food servers, and the director who recently took my mom to the doctor when I was out of town. That was very gracious of her and so appreciated. My mom has shared with me how happy she is at Meadow Brook, she feels safe and respected. Mom has been a great role model for me, enjoying a wonderful senior community that provides us all with great peace of mind. We are very grateful!

Meadow Brook is an amazing facility for memory care and assisted living. The AL building is beautiful, lively, active and fun. The Memory care wing is adorable, homey, comfortable and has a very happy feel. Every staff member I have met is very dedicated to the residents and very committed to going above and beyond. Corrie, the wellness director, looks at every resident as if they are family and will do anything to ensure her residents get the best care possible! Jodie in activities goes above and beyond to provide activities to stimulate, entertain and educate the residents. I highly recommend Meadow Brook Assisted Living and Memory Care!

Meadowbrook has recently and warmly welcomed my mom and dad and made the transition from another retirement community in Indianapolis so easy. The staff is exceptional in every aspect from health care to housekeeping to dining and all facets in between. Walking in the front door you immediately feel that every person you encounter - whether it be a resident or staff member - genuinely enjoy being there. Terrific communication, responsiveness and care.

Meadow Brook is a wonderful community with many amenities. But its best feature is that of the staff. I have been working in the healthcare industry for many years and have not met leading staff quite like that of meadow brook.

Over the course of the last year, I have visited Meadowbrook on three separate occasions and on each occasion, it was clear that each and everyone of the staff had the utmost respect for the residents and valued their health, well-being, and happiness. I moved my dad in yesterday and the amount of compassion and care the staff showed him upon his arrival was nothing less than amazing. They treated him as if he were a long lost friend and welcomed him with open arms. They made him feel at home. With such a gracious and loving and compassionate staff, there is no doubt in my mind that Meadowbrook is the best fit for him and has his best interests at heart.

Placing my mother at Meadowbrook was a very difficult decision for me, but it was a very good decision for her. She has settled in and is so content with all the residents and friendly staff. When I have had to take her out for an appointment or family meal she quickly lets me know she is unhappy and when I get her back I can visibly see a difference in her demeanor. She actually kissed me when we crossed over into her Memory Care section, a move I havent seen out of her for quite a while, because with her illness she shows very little emotion. My father had been total caregiver for her for a couple of years and when it became too much he told me to find her a place to move. In less than a month he also decided to make the move to the assisted living part of Meadowbrook. He is very content and realizes it was necessary for his day to day living. Meadowbrook has been easy to work with, any problems are usually handled with one phone call. The staff is very caring and truly care about their residents.

My mother has been in Meadow Brook since June of 2016. She fell and broke her neck and has been getting spectacular care from the staff at Meadow Brook. My mom loves the staff and enjoys the company of the residents. My mom was still working when she fell, so this has been a huge game changer for her. The staff have made the transition a good one. The hope is that she will be strong enough to move into an independent situation down the road. We would recommend Meadow Brook (and have) to all her friends that may need assistance. D. McKay

My Mom moved in almost three weeks ago. The staff mad the move so easy. I was so very worried because my Mom never wanted to live in a retirement home. She always wanted to be in her own home. Since Moving to Meadow Brook she has done fabulous! The staff at Meadow Brook is absolutley AMAZING! From Theresa, Julia Tanya, Deneisha(spelling it wrong), Hilda, Cece, Barbara, Edna and many others I am leaving out, all are friendly, loving and supportive. All know my Mom by name and when I walk in they tell me what my Mom has done all day. The food is so yummy! I truly feel like my Mom is part of a family. Activities are very nice. Mom gets a manicure every Monday, plays bingo, Bible study, Church and so many other fun outings are available. Mom's apartment is spacious, very supportive nursing care. Help showering and dressing by Mom's favorite Hilda! Tonight at the Harvest dinner Mom was waving at her friends sitting at other tables. My Mom is not a social person so seeing her be that way made me so very happy. I know she feels at home at Meadow Brook. I can sleep at night knowing Mom is with people that love her and most importantly she is safe. Meadow Brook has far exceeded my expectations.
