    Understaffed, unsafe, dirty, negligent care

    I placed my loved one here and it's been a nightmare. TVs and phones often don't work, call buttons and air-mattresses went unrepaired for hours, and maintenance issues like mold, broken beds and a foul smell were ignored. Nursing care was inconsistent - delayed meds, wound care missed, a nurse lied to us, and staff regularly ignored call bells; my family wasn't notified after a fall. Food was cold and awful, rooms and linens were dirty, and we saw mice/roaches and theft of belongings. They moved him to a basement "dementia" unit full of severe cases despite not needing that level of care. A few people (social worker, front desk) were helpful and the grounds and some renovated areas look nice, but overall the facility is understaffed, unprofessional and unsafe - I would look elsewhere.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment across the reviews is highly mixed but trends strongly toward negative when it comes to day-to-day care, cleanliness, and responsiveness. Multiple reviewers praise administrative/front desk staff, specific therapists, and a social worker who helped move residents, and several accounts note visible improvements such as renovations, new furniture, and some very clean rooms. However, a large portion of the feedback describes systemic problems: inconsistent clinical care, understaffing, poor bedside manner, and slow or nonexistent responses to call bells and urgent needs.

    Care quality and staffing are central themes. Many reviewers reported that nursing staff are unresponsive, display poor attitudes, or fail to provide timely care. Specific clinical issues include delayed or missed medications, inconsistent wound care (bandages not changed promptly and staff providing misleading information), long waits to address medical equipment needs (air mattress repairs), and failures to notify families about falls. There are also disturbing allegations such as staff being unprofessional or impaired on shift. While some reviewers explicitly note decent clinical management and effective medication handling, these positives coexist with repeated accounts of negligence, creating a pattern of highly variable care depending on staff on duty and the unit where a resident is placed.

    Cleanliness, maintenance, and safety problems recur throughout the reviews. Reported issues include strong unpleasant odors in living quarters, mold near beds and on ceilings, infestation reports (mice and roaches), dirty common areas and rooms, leftover food containers, and broken or missing equipment (broken beds, broken nurse call buttons, nonworking TVs and phones). Several reviewers described dangerous bathroom conditions and rooms that are outdated. There are also reports of beds positioned on the floor after incidents and residents falling without family notification. These factors present both dignity and safety concerns and suggest inconsistent adherence to basic environmental and infection-control standards.

    Dining and basic daily living supports are another area of concern. Multiple accounts describe poor food quality, cold meals, frozen protein shakes, and short meal times that negatively affect intake. Reviewers also reported inadequate assistance with hygiene: infrequent showers, diapers being used rather than providing bathroom help, clothes not being laundered, and general neglect of personal care. These problems are consistent with an understaffing pattern and with complaints that residents are sometimes ignored for basic needs.

    Activities and therapy show a split picture: several reviewers are pleased with available therapy services (daily therapists, one-on-one sessions) and group activities such as painting, and some residents reported enjoying the grounds and a homely, colorful interior. At the same time, reviewers pointed out that activities are not always inclusive or varied enough, particularly for residents with vision or hearing impairments, and some described a lack of meaningful engagement for many residents.

    Management and organizational themes are mixed. A number of reviewers complimented friendly administrative personnel, praised a social worker, or noted new nursing leadership and renovations that improved appearance. Conversely, there is a persistent perception among many reviewers that the facility operates primarily as a for-profit institution with standardized pricing that may not reflect consistent quality of care. Several reviewers recommended moving loved ones elsewhere and used strong language suggesting the facility should be closed. Theft or missing belongings was also reported by multiple families, further undermining trust.

    In summary, the reviews paint a polarized picture: pockets of good care, attentive clinicians, and tangible improvements in facilities contrast sharply with repeated and serious complaints about understaffing, poor nursing care, hygiene and pest problems, maintenance failures, safety lapses, and inconsistent clinical practices. Prospective residents and families should treat these reviews as evidence that experiences can vary dramatically depending on unit, shift, and staff, and should prioritize an in-person visit that inspects cleanliness, checks for pests and mold, verifies safety features (functioning call bells and emergency cords), asks for documentation of staffing levels and wound/medication protocols, and seeks references about recent leadership changes and clinical outcomes before making placement decisions.

    About Meadowview Rehabilitation And Nursing Center

    Meadowview Rehabilitation And Nursing Center sits over in Lafayette Hill, PA, and holds a capacity of 244 licensed beds, which means there are usually around 219 residents here each day, and they handle both short-term rehab and longer-term skilled nursing care under one roof, with respite stays and post-operative care for folks who need a place to recover between hospital and home, and they've got a full team of experienced nurses and therapists on duty 24 hours a day, 7 days a week offering physical, occupational, speech, and respiratory therapy geared at personalized goals, so everybody's got their own plan. Residents use furnished rooms with private bathrooms, cable TV, high-speed Wi-Fi, air conditioning, kitchenettes, and emergency alert systems, and if anyone needs help with medicines, bathing, dressing, or daily routines, the staff has 12-16 hour nursing support on top of a 24-hour call system for extra coverage. There's a pretty strong community atmosphere here, with an arts room, library, game room, activity rooms, outdoor walking paths and gardens, plus a spa and fitness programs, and they try to make the setting feel bright and cozy. People join in on movie nights, music events, resident-led activities, and daily recreation, with community-sponsored events and scheduled transportation into town if needed, while the restaurant-style dining offers all-day service, special menus for allergies and diabetes, and meals made by a professional chef. Volunteers and staff work side by side, people from all walks of life pitch in, and there are plenty of family support and wellness programs too, though there have been concerns noted during inspections, like problems with nutrition and serving food at safe temperatures, incomplete care planning for some residents, and some documented infection-related deficiencies, so that's something families tend to want to ask about. The ownership comes through Wm Holdings LLC, with 100% direct stake, and Jonathan Bleier and Yaakov Sod each holding a 50% indirect stake, and while there is a nurse staffing average of 3.33 hours per resident daily and a nurse turnover rate higher than some other places at 49.2%, the leadership does keep a close watch on quality, doing regular health inspections, being recognized for some achievements, and striving for a comfortable, supportive environment where care is tailored to the person, not the diagnosis. The facility is part of a Continuing Care Retirement Community, which means folks can get different types of care as their needs change, and they accept both Medicare and Medicaid. Meadowview is independently operated, with clinical and healthcare matters handled by its own team, though administrative help is provided by Premier Healthcare Management. There's parking for visitors, transportation, and move-in help for newcomers, and staff try hard to make everyone feel at home while balancing all the rules that come with their for-profit status and corporate ownership, so while no place is perfect, folks find camaraderie and a sense of belonging here, especially those who value a strong activity calendar, on-site therapy, daily housekeeping and laundry, access to a beauty salon, and the feeling of being looked after in a vibrant, nicely designed setting, especially with the gardens and outdoor spaces during warmer months. There are career opportunities and benefits for staff, with a focus on celebrating each resident's life journey, and even though there've been some reported problems with care planning and dietary issues, the team tries to address concerns quickly, working through resident councils and regular updates to care plans, making this a place where many people find a good balance of support, independence, and a little bit of home.
