Mom loves it here. When Ive had issues, the staff listens and makes sure things are corrected. We are very happy with our choice. A smallish community where it is easy for everyone to fit in. A lovely setting to walk your loved one around the premises. Or take them out in a wheelchair. Staff listens and responds to issues of concern. A nice room to make it feel like home.

Afterwards we had lunch in the dining room. Jennifer left my wife and I alone so that we could discuss our visit and impressions.

Mom’s Experience Thus Far at Turners Rock Senior Living

My mother had the opportunity to move into Turners Rock Senior Living into a studio apartment two months ago. From day one and the very beginning of her time at Turners, mom embraced the community and set out on a mission to meet residents, staff and to become involved in daily activities within the community. She’s used her wheeled walker to take herself to activities such as exercise class, bingo, bocce ball and of course down to the restaurant for meals. In addition to all the wonderful amenities offered at Turners to the residents, mom also absolutely loves the staff! She knows everyone’s names and they in return know hers. They greet her with a warm and friendly smile as they call her by name. It’s the personal connections, the genuineness and true compassion from all at Turners that has made my mom’s first two months some of the most rewarding in our/her opinion. Mom is happy and thriving! What more could a family want for their loved one in their elder years?! Thank you Turners!

Carrying Staff

I wonder give them a 5 in all the categories. I'm very pleased that I selected Merrill Gardens. I like the staff, the food, and I've met some very nice residents. I'm also getting excellent rehab for my balance issue, which is very much appreciated. Also, the staff, who cleans my room, is very good. I would definitely recommend Merrill Gardens at Barkley Place as a place to live.
