Hi, My Mother was a patient at Royal Meadows, and recently my Mother Patrice passed away! Her stay there was positive, caring, kind, sympathetic, the facility was clean, and someone was always there if you needed help, and as you got to know these wonderful nurses and caretakers that treated us all with such respect, it felt like Family, and how comforting to know, when I would leave to go home, I knew my Mother was all set, I knew they would take care of her, as that made it so much easier to leave! I received a sympathy card today from them and they all wrote such beautiful things about my Mom. Thank you Lucy, Bill, and the entire Staff at Royal Meadows from the bottom of my heart! ❤️ Sheree ... daughter of Patrice Boyle

During my short stay I found the facility to be clean and comfortable. Everyone on the staff were caring and attentive, in particular Lucy. She made my stay more comfortable, and I am forever grateful to her. Sam with a easy smile made my stay easier. When ever I asked something from him, he always took care of it right away. Patricia the PT knew what I needed for my recovery. I would recommend this facility to anyone needing these services, Also, the food was very good, Sincerely Dianne Fitzgerald

Our experience with Royal Meadow View has been excellent. The building is clean, secure, and well maintained. There are several community rooms the residents can visit with their families which are comfortable and inviting. The food served here has been balanced and nutritious, and my family member enjoys his meals very much. What makes Royal Meadow View special is the caring staff. The front desk staff (Felipe and Rene) are so friendly and welcoming, it’s a wonderful way to start the visit. Nurse Lucy P. has been phenomenal from the moment we first arrived and has been consistently attentive, caring, and friendly with every visit. Lucy will always make sure my family member has everything he needs. She is extremely thorough and attentive. She goes above and beyond with making the residents and their families feel like a valued part of their community, which has given my family member the encouragement and motivation to engage with others rather than stay isolated in his room. Lucy has made a difficult transition so much easier. She has brought a sense of community and belonging to my family member. She has also brought me such peace of mind knowing he’s being cared for. I cannot thank her enough for that. Sam is another stand-out nurse that has helped our family member transition into a comfortable routine. Sam has shown so much kindness and care to my family member and to us as well. He can always make my family member laugh and smile, and has such a positive, pleasant attitude. Whatever we ask him for, he attends to it right away and makes sure my family member is being taken care of. His kind, fun personality makes the days so much happier. The occupational therapist Kim has been absolutely wonderful as well. She worked with my family member consistently and helped him make excellent progress in regaining mobility and independence. She is gentle, kind, attentive, and incredibly supportive. She genuinely cares about the RM residents and goes out of her way to show that. She keeps the family well informed and makes them feel like part of their team. My family member felt very proud of his progress because of Kim’s encouragement and continued support. She is a wonderful therapist. There are many more staff members at Royal Meadow that are absolutely wonderful and I feel very fortunate that our family member is here. He has been in several other nursing rehab facilities over the years and none of them come close to being as good as Royal Meadow has been.
