I just moved my mother into The Meridian at Brandon assisted living facility and within the first few days of living there she is the happiest I've seen her in a very long time. The residents and staff are very friendly and there are lots of activities for her to do to keep her busy. I wasn't sure she would participate in the activities but Jennifer the coordinator there is so fun and inviting she can't help but enjoy herself and has made some friends in the process. While there was a wait to get a room there (I see this as a plus because it shows it's a desirable community), Annie helped us through the process by keeping us informed and inviting us to experience some of the activities while we were waiting for an opening. She also invited us to lunch to taste the delicious food they serve. My mother hasn't been there long enough for me to comment on her medical care but from what I have seen so far (witnessing interactions between the caring nursing staff and the residents in the common areas) I feel confident she is in good hands.

My Mother-In-Law moved into a studio apartment in The Meridian at Brandon community a year ago and she has been thriving there ever since. The facility is beautiful, even hotel-like inside. They have a great activity coordinator who hosts lots of fun events for the residents and their families, they also have social groups and group dining. My MIL has numerous friends and is always celebrating birthdays and holidays there in ways she hadn’t enjoyed in years before she moved-in. Even though my MIL is disabled, she gets out to her doctor appointments solo, by way of the community van, and someone is available to help her with laundry and cleaning chores that she cannot do for herself. If you’re looking for an assisted living facility in the Brandon area, this place is top-notch.

I’m beyond Grateful that I’ve found The Meridian at Brandon for my mom, who is in memory care. I’m blown away by the Cheerfulness, Respect and Kindness shown to her and all the residents by the staff. It’s not just the caregivers, but the entire staff, to include the nurses, managers, and even the executive director, that make it a priority to share these virtues. Earlier, I’d made a mistake in choosing a facility that promised the best care in Tampa, only to disappoint. In a last ditch effort to get my mom to a Safe and Caring place, I walked into The Meridian. I knew on my tour that they cared. This time I kept a keen eye on the staff and how they interacted with the residents, it was night and day different from where mom lived. I couldn’t wait to move mom (although I did have to wait for availability!) we’ve enjoyed a very happy transition. I feel at Peace knowing mom is safe and cared for, for that I’m tremendously grateful!
