It's a nicer facility than some of the other places I've toured. Some of the staff are questionable though but i guess thats New York. I could be wrong but I thought I smelt alcohol on one of the administrators. I hope I'm wrong because I would hate to think that the people entrusted to take care of our loved ones are drinking while on the job.

My father is currently a resident on the second floor at this Rehabilitation center.While the facility could benefit from some renovations and there is occasionally a noticeable urine odor in the hallways, I understand that caring for many elderly residents comes with challenges. What truly stands out is the dedication and compassion of the staff. Lina is amazing and always makes sure my father has his ice packs frozen his portable refrigerator and that he is comfortable. Issa is incredibly helpful and kind, always ready to help and responds quickly whenever we need his assistance . Thank you to Lina , Issa and Ania ( she is amazing too) and the entire team ( there are 2 more male staff members who are always helpful and friendly. I don’t know their names yet, but I will update my review once I find out. The entire staff on the second floor is amazing.

I went to visit my uncle for the first time today. When I arrived I noticed he needed to be changed and when I addressed it changed took place right away. The person also made sure he had pillows on the side to prevent him from trying to get up which was very much appreciated. He appeared to be comfortable as well.

Mom moved into the Meridian in Punta Gorda yesterday. It’s been a delightful experience with all the friendly smiles and greetings and helpful staff. I think she’s settled. Yesterday we had lunch for the first time. And the salmon that I ordered was Restaurant quality delicious. It was hot. And I was blown away by the quality. So yes, we’re giving them Meridian five stars.
