Meadows on Sycamore Inc sits quietly in a peaceful neighborhood in eastern Sioux Falls at 130 N Sycamore Ave and provides different kinds of care for seniors, so someone who needs help with daily activities can move into assisted living, and people with memory problems from Alzheimer's or dementia get a memory care unit designed to reduce confusion and keep them safe from wandering. Seniors who don't need much help might prefer independent living, where they can enjoy a hassle-free, social environment, and those who live at home can still get support through home care services where trained aides offer companionship and basic care. The facility has support for diabetic care, non-ambulatory care, and incontinence care, and nursing support is always available along with medication help and therapies for special diets.
The Meadows has 123 beds in apartment-style layouts such as double rooms, private rooms, or private apartments, and in all of them you'll find easy access to kitchens or kitchenettes, private bathrooms, safety features, and handy options for laundry and housekeeping, so the whole place stays comfortable without residents having to do any chores. Free cable TV comes with each room, and there's guest parking for family or friends who visit. Common areas include a game and activities room where residents spend time together, plus indoor spaces for devotional activities and social events both on site and away, so there's almost always something happening if you want to join in. There are exercise rooms with well-maintained equipment, two beauty and barber shops right on campus, and a dining room where you get three homemade meals and snacks each day, always with thoughtful attention to nutrition and quality ingredients.
You'll see pet-friendly buildings so people can keep their small dogs or cats with them, though other buildings are for people who prefer smoke-free and pet-free areas. Transportation services make it easier to get out for appointments or shopping, and the staff-known for being helpful, joyful, and kind-assist residents in almost every way, whether with the wheelchair walking, personal care, or just some cheerful company. The community doesn't charge extra fees for higher levels of care, using a simple flat rate that covers all services and support, which means everyone gets the same attention without worrying about costs changing every month. Residents and families also use free Rep-payee services for help managing money, and the facility is connected to resources for long-term care insurance and guidance for caregivers.
Safety runs through everything thanks to sprinkler systems, handicap-accessible features, and regular maintenance support for both health and property. Meadows on Sycamore has won awards for Best Activities, Best Meals and Dining, and Most Friendly, all reflecting the care that goes into daily life there without pretending the place is perfect in every way, because a community gets built one day and one person at a time-often slower than anyone would like but in a way that feels steady, comfortable, and honest. Tours run regularly so prospective residents can see rooms and amenities in person and pick what feels right for them.
