The Views Senior Living Of Marion sits in Marion and offers a range of care options including assisted living, memory care, independent living, nursing home services, and rehabilitation. The community's licensed facility follows state guidelines and keeps up with infection control requirements, and security cameras watch over the building and grounds. There's help on hand at all times from certified staff, with nurses and therapists available day and night, and a personal emergency response system along with panic buttons in private rooms for reassurance. Residents can choose from private rooms in a two-story building, with well-curated common areas, a coffee shop, a movie theater, a fitness center, a library, a beauty shop, secured outdoor courtyards, and scenic outdoor paths where people sometimes see deer wander by. Inside, light-filtering pleated window shades keep rooms bright and private, and assisted living apartments have walk-in showers and benches with handrails.
The staff get training both online and through in-person mentoring on the floor, and routine care conferences along with immediate updates keep families informed. The facility hosts three daily meals-comfort food and options from an à la carte menu, with snacks and special events from the Executive Chef, and the place is pet-friendly too if folks in assisted living can care for their animals. There's scheduled transportation on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and they try to help on other days if needed. Every week, residents can join structured activities, field trips, and outings, including music performances and religious services, while special areas like the Marion train station and the healing design memory care spaces add some variety for those with memory needs. MeadowView Memory Care has private one-bedroom apartments, seven-day-a-week activities, and secure environments. Supportive nursing and therapy services go along with rehabilitation, speech, occupational, and physical therapy, all provided in large private rooms with their own bathrooms, beds, and spaces to relax.
The facility works with outside resources for moving in and transitioning, and there's short-term or respite stays for at least 14 days on a waiting list, with a refundable fee credited toward the community fee. The Views Senior Living Of Marion stands as the first WELL Certified assisted living community in the country, which means healthy building design was a focus. The place is also locally owned and managed, with oversight meant to keep care personal. The community keeps things honest-offering a full range of living choices on one campus and a safe, serene haven with support tailored to each person's needs.
