I moved my mother to Meadowview Manor and am deeply grateful. It feels like Grandma's house - immaculate, spacious rooms with private baths, TVs/phones, furnished or not, and overnight staff with owner/management on-site. Home-cooked meals in an open dining area, beautiful decks/grounds overflowing with flowers and animal companions, and hands-on, compassionate caregivers (Bea and team) made her feel loved through a peaceful passing. No formal activities program, but the quiet-yet-active, senior-safe setting and top-notch staff make this place highly recommended.
Meadowview Manor sits in Sonora, California, and serves as a senior living and care facility licensed for up to 20 residents, feeling more like a small community than a big complex, and folks can choose between private studio rooms or shared semi-private options, with published monthly rates that start at $3,950 for memory care studios and $3,700 for semi-private. The place has a long history, more than ten years, and leans on a caring team that helps families figure out care choices, guides them through finding the right level of support, and provides details about services and amenities whenever they're asked. You'll find independent living, assisted living, and board and care home services here, along with memory care designed for seniors with dementia or Alzheimer's, plus respite and hospice care too, so residents can often stay put as their needs change.
The staff stays awake and on site round the clock, with nurses, therapists, and even a doctor on call, and they're qualified to help with medication management, bathing, dressing, diabetes and insulin help, transferring with lifts, and handling heavier care for people with complex needs. They can offer reminders or supervision for folks who need a lighter touch, and they manage behavioral care if someone has trouble with moods or actions. The rooms and common areas are made to be accessible, so wheelchair users get showers and easy movement, and you'll find lots of spots for people to gather or get fresh air, such as outdoor gardens, walking paths, and indoor lounges, and the dining room serves meals for different diets, including vegetarian, allergy-safe, and diabetic options.
Amenities try to make things comfortable and homelike, with movie nights, gardening, arts rooms, scheduled community events, and on-site devotional services, while a beautician and barber come on site, and transportation is set up for extra cost or as needed, though there's free parking for residents. Laundry, housekeeping, emergency response, and move-in help add to the daily ease, and the staff focus on encouraging each person to do what they can for themselves to keep a sense of independence, dignity, and comfort. Visitors will notice the friendly atmosphere, the safety measures, and the commitment to treating everyone with respect, since Meadowview Manor aims for a calm, nurturing environment instead of a medical feel. Residents here get to enjoy activities that keep them social and engaged, and people can ask to see reviews and ratings or get all the details from the team, because the goal is to give families the facts so decisions feel informed and right for their loved ones.
