Clare Meadows is a great option for seniors who can still live on thier own, but still need a little extra help and/or amenities or simply some extra companionship :) I toured here with my grandma who I hope to move in this spring. What was cool: — a cord in the bathroom that residents can pull if they are in trouble, an alarm sounds alerting neighbors that someone is in trouble — a giant fish tank and fireplaces in the lobby/center of the complex — a full calendar with things to do almost every day!(games, exercises, church things, etc.) — nice areas with table and books to read, also saw people doing puzzles! — a bus that stops at some local stores(e.g. Sendiks) — a cute little chapel on the first floor — a small convenience store on the first floor that residents procure and sell the inventory for necessity type items — the option to always get a meal for a very reasonable price for seniors who can’t or do not want to cook — a hair salon on-site! — friendly residents — super friendly manager, Beth, was absolutely wonderful!!! Rent was in the $ 600’s for a one bedroom and $ 800’s for two. There are about 134 units and they always seem to be at full capacity and have an on-going waitlist. If you or your loved one are considering, at least get on the waitlist asap so that you’ll get the call when an apartment becomes available! You can stay on the list if you pass on the first call. Secure your spot with a down payment. Nice place and great options for lots of loving seniors :)
