Should quality care be required, Touchmark Home Health Services and the Meadows Assisted Living Services are available to meet the needs.
Meadow Lake Village is a new, active adult resort located in Meridian, Idaho (a Boise suburb), selected by Where to Retire magazine (Special collector's issue, November, 2001) as one of its top choices in the country. Meadow Lake Village is a unique and wonderfully different community - a neighborhood reminiscent of a small town, including over 700 homes on 135 acres with approximately 1,000 residents.
Jim Moyer, the irrigation designer, chose the Baseline irrigation site control system to manage the complex irrigation issues at this site.
His experience with Baseline at other sites gave Jim the confidence and reassurance that recommending a Baseline System was the very best while being the least expensive for the customer. Jim knew that while highly touted ET based control systems look good on paper, they are nightmares for customers to manage. And running a retirement community is all about providing the very best services at the lowest possible cost.
At one point the site suffered a direct lightning strike near its administration building. "The force was so powerful, that it knocked pictures off the wall." Even without supplemental lightning protection, only a few Baseline devices were damaged. "Had this been any other system, even with additional lightning protection, the whole site would have been toast." This is a testimony to the durability of the Baseline system.
So while the retirees are enjoying pleasant and secure surroundings, the Baseline system will be helping them to retire in style...
