  I was at Linwood Meadows just shy of five weeks, and I truly enjoyed my time there. Words can't fully express how loving, caring, thoughtful, kind, and patient every staff member was. From the top supervisors of all departments — administration, admissions, physical and occupational therapy — to the entire nursing staff, food service, housekeeping, and (oh, what fun!) activity staff — Bingo, art, crafts, holiday parties, puzzles, games, entertainment, and music! The meal options were good, and I especially enjoyed the snack cart that came door-to-door between meals. When it was time for me to leave, I felt like I was saying goodbye to family. I highly recommend Linwood Meadows Care Center.

  My husband was here for 4 months. He’d been in several places before. He’s liked Linwood Meadows best because the staff is genuine. They do what they say they’ll do for him. They’re very considerate and consistent with the patients. Not a lot of fancy extras but I rate them on how well my husband was treated. The admin staff is helpful navigating the system.

  I spent time there maybe 2 yrs ago. I was scared. I'm not sure exactly how long I was there. Every nurse, staff member treated us with utmost respect,help, and friendliness. I love those girls. The food was so tasteful, and healthy. I'm thrilled I had such a wonderful group while I was there. The therapy group was also fun, and respected us. Thank you for caring.
