My wife's aunt lived at Providence Meadows for 3 years. The staff showed nothing but kindness and care toward her. Joe and Kim, the daytime managers, create an atmosphere of respect and loving regard for all of the residents. They have been at the community for years and are impressively devoted to their work.

WONDERFUL COMMUNITY!!! My mother in law, Doris, lived there for 3 years. Those amazing years were a chapter in her life that she will never forget. Mangers, Kim and Joe, are the kindest most gracious people. The staff is so kind and professional , no matter if they are the chef, server, sales agent, cleaner, activity director, or nurse, will help the residents with any task at any time ( finding thier rooms, carrying something...etc) Mom had a wonderful expirience with the on site in home/ community Health care service Gentle Shepherd. They helped with personal care, showering, meds, and mental support, 3 days a week. I ABSOLUTELY, recommend Gentle Shepherd Care for help with a range of small to large tasks all the way to hospice care.Thank You, Kim and Joe and all Providence Meadows Staff and residents for making these last 3 years of Doris' life comfortable, happy and memorable.

My mom loves this place, and I do as well. The managers who run the facility are some of the kindest people, very transparent and supportive. No place is perfect, but I can’t find anything that deserves a mention. Joe and Kim are amazing at running such a large property. It is truly a gracious retirement community.

Our Mother has been a resident of Providence Meadows for 14 months. The entire facility including the dining room, movie theater, activity center, chapel etc. are very well managed. It’s very family oriented with staff that truly care about the well being of the residents. It’s a relatively newer building (<10 yrs) with nice updated rooms. Multiple laundry rooms on each floor add convenience. We highly recommend Providence and appreciate all those that work to create this environment.<br>Bill Day
