The Meadows

The Meadows TVM is a 105 bed nursing care facility in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia.

Design and construction of this large facility emphasizes durability and functionality without comprising comfort, accessibility or resident well-being.

Home-like, residential-scale ‘houses’ are complemented by larger public-scaled spaces with amenities and group activity rooms. Year-round views and access to beautifully landscaped courtyards are provided from residential houses and multi-purpose areas using large picture windows and sophisticated door hardware systems.

Successful design features of the Meadows TVM include the open-concept kitchen/dining/living rooms in resident houses which provide good visibility for staff and residents while maintaining a residential scale; enhanced wayfinding; and a unique sense of place which is achieved by incorporating Nova Scotia art pieces throughout the facility.
