Overview of Meadow View Senior Living Community

Meadow View Senior Living Community sits on Acuff Lane in Anderson County, just outside Clinton, Tennessee. It’s a 45-bed community offering both assisted living and memory care, run by Goodworks Unlimited LLC with Kelly Johnson Majors as executive director. The single-story layout means thre are no stairs and no elevators; it’s just one level to navigate.

Sixteen years in operation, and the numbers suggest staying power: 53 residents currently fill the building’s 45 beds, an 89 percent occupancy rate. People don’t pass through quickly either. The average length of stay runs 683 days, nearly two years, which tells you this is a place built for residents settling in long-term rather than a brief stopover. Studio, alcove, and one-bedroom layouts give some flexibility on space.

Nursing services and 24-hour staffing are confirmed, and each resident gets a personalized care plan rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Meals are chef-prepared, which matters more than it sounds once you consider the location: with a Walk Score of just 21, getting anywhere off-site means a car, so on-site transportation services fill that gap for residents and visiting family alike.

Outdoor walking paths wind through landscaped grounds, and a wellness activities program keeps the daily calendar from going stale. Pets are welcome too, no need to leave a companion animal behind.

Between the nearly two-year average stay, the round-the-clock nursing presence, and a single-story building designed for ease of movement, Meadow View reads as a community set up for residents who need steady, long-term assisted living or memory care, not a brief transition between other settings.
