English Meadows Harrisonburg Campus

My review is for the Activities Director, Melissa. She is excellent! She has boundless enthusiasm and energy which translates to the many activities/programs she diligently plans for residents, striving to make them all-inclusive and interesting regardless of the skill level of the resident. Most importantly Melissa has a genuine affection for the people she serves and she loves her job. Kudos Melissa!

It has been one year since my Mother moved into The Phoenix at Harrisonburg. It was a tough transition moving from her home in another state to an assisted living environment. With the help and care of the staff, my Mother has a beautiful and comfortable apartment. She has made many friends, started a library and runs a book club. She enjoys all of the musicians that perform periodically and enjoys the camaraderie with her friends during meals. The facilities are pristine and are easily accessible by the residents. All staff, from the director to the event coordinator, to all medical staff and assistants have been available for my Mother's needs. In addition, when her children have questions or concerns, we are contacted promptly to hear answers or develop solutions together. They are working on making better meals for the residents along with complying with their individual dietary restrictions and requirements. The financial coordinator and marketing director have been helpful as well. My Mother now proudly calls Phoenix her home.

I am doing this for Janet. The facility is beautiful and the rooms are large. I am comfortable here and have been well cared for. I do not like how they have changed the care givers shifts and would prefer to have them returned to 8 hr shifts for consistency. I get very discouraged when my laundry is not done correctly. There are certain people such as Kim and Mallory that do a great job. I believe they need to invest in more than one washer for my wing. The food is not very good. I am a very good cook and sometimes I cannot even identify what they are serving. Most of the time the meat is too tough to eat and I can not begin to describe the shepards pie that was served. The amount we play continues to increase however the quality of the food does not. Please train your staff in the kitchen. I really like it here but find myself spending more money than I should to have tasty meals.

Davis Bradley is a music duo that has the pleasure to entertain the fine residents at The Phoenix at Harrisonburg monthly. The staff and programming director, Melissa are always welcoming and accommodating. They are engaged with the residents throughout the concert, making sure a good time is had by all. The smiles of our dear friends show they are happy and well cared for in their home at the Phoenix. We visit to offer a blessing and leave receiving a blessing. Kathy & Brad ~ Davis Bradley
