Overview of Meadows on Sycamore

Sioux Falls’s Oak View neighborhood is home to Meadows on Sycamore, a 45-bed community that combines assisted living with memory care and nursing care under one address at 130 N Sycamore Ave. It’s only been open a year, which is worth knowing going in. Getting around without a car is only partly an option: the Walk Score sits at 47, “somewhat walkable,” so some errands work on foot while most still call for a drive.

Leadership is under Tracey Hughes; she runs the place as Administrator, and she’s not new to this work: over 22 years in health care overall, 18 of those specifically in long-term care. Medicaid is accepted, which matters for families weighing how to pay for a level of care that can shift over time.

Nursing services and 24-hour staffing back up the memory care and nursing care side of things, and specific programs cover health care services and therapeutic diets alongside a rotating activities schedule. There’s a library, exercise equipment, beauty and barber shops, resident game rooms, and free cable TV on the amenities side. Weekly bingo and off-campus outings round out the calendar, so residents aren’t only choosing between staying in their room or sitting in a common area.

Smoke-free buildings, no pets allowed, and three levels of care rolled into a single community: that’s a specific combination, one built less around lifestyle amenities and more around a resident’s care needs changing without requiring a move somewhere new.
