Working as a team, our doctors, nurses, dieticians, therapists, social workers and recreation professionals develop a comprehensive and fully coordinated care plan for each patient. Complete medical services are provided. A staff physician makes rounds daily, Monday through Friday, and is available twenty-four hours, seven days a week on an on-call basis. Dental services are provided on site through the John H. Cronin Medical Dental Center, operated by Atlantic County in conjuction with the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. Podiatry services are available through a consulting service in our on-site foot clinic. Hospital care is available just minutes away at Shore Memorial Hospital or at Atlantic City Medical Center. Our dedicated staff of registered nurses, licensed practical nurses and certified nurses aides work together to provide excellent care on a daily basis. Currently, over 50 percent of Meadowview's RNs are certified in Gerontology by the American Nursing Association. We encourage all our staff to advance their training by offering on-going educational programs featuring new techniques and medical advances. Meadowview provides a full range of physical, occupational and speech therapy rehabilitation services in a fully equiped therapy gym. Therapies are available for post-acute care hospital rehabilitation in addition to on-going restorative services, using an inter-disciplinary approach, all designed to provide residents with the opportunity to achieve and maintain the highest practicable level of day-to-day activity. Meadowview's recreation department offers residents carefully planned therapeutic activities which meet our resident's physical, social, and spiritual needs through group and individual activities. Birthdays and holidays are made special through celebrations and decorations throughout our facility.
