Merrill Gardens

5 for each, they were the best we could have hoped for! When we were there to tour, we actually had time in the lobby with another resident's daughter and she rightly raved about this new home we were considering. They are truly attentive to each individual in their care. They draw each person out of their selves and engage them in activities to their own level of comfort, they are able to engage even the quiet. They are respectful to the residents and use language that causes no shame or embarrassment for situations that arise. They engage their hearts, the residents are loved.

The people that work here seem to like their jobs ! Very friendly, happy, and caring. If you have a question they will find you the answer. Everyone LOVES the food ! Great tasting, nutritious meals. It is clean and well maintained.

We are very happy at Truewood. Everyone has been very nice and welcoming. Yes, I would definitely recommend the community to others

Loved them! Wonderful staff and facility. I would recommend Truewood by Merrill, Boise to other families looking.

My mother and father are very happy there and even though they kept their car, don't leave much at all. They find everything they need at Merrill Gardens. They also enjoy the company of friends and staff. Their apartment is comfortable and spacious

I feel secure here. I’ve met some great friends . I was nervous moving in that I wouldn’t know anyone but I was pleasantly surprised at how friendly the people are here. To top it off I absolutely love my apartment and my screened in porch for my kitties. I love living here

This facility offers all of the activities and benefits I was seeking and is staffed by a caring and empathetic group dedícated to seeing to the wellbeing of everyone here. The facility is well maintained and easy to navigate. It is also close to many conveniences such as groceries, post office,a variety of stores, restaurants, and good medical facilites.plus transportation is available free within a ten mile radious, shopping outings are planned regularly, and full day outings also. Over all a truly plesant place to live.

The staff and residents are so welcoming. Very positive experience from interacting with all the people there. My dad has a studio apt which overlooks the courtyard. Always activities happening and the food in the dining room is so yummy looking. Can’t think of a better place for my dad to live at. He’s 97 and needs help with certain things but can still remain pretty independent with his own apartment. Also, dogs and cats are welcome there which always makes people smile when they come in contact with a resident’s pet. Total win-win.

I would give them a 10 for everything. There are so many activities. There are various room sizes, and the staff is wonderful. I would absolutely recommend them, it is the best one in Santa Cruz.

I visited with my mom and was impressed all around. The staff was friendly. The residents were welcoming. The food was excellent and there were lots of options. Everything was modern and clean. The shared spaces were very nice. There seemed to be lots of activities. The price was reasonable for the amount of amenities included. My mom has since moved in and hasn’t been disappointed.

Mom has adjusted well and is very happy in her new environment. Staff is caring and keeps the family well informed which reinforces our decision to place mom in their facility. Mom is kept occupied with lots of activities and loves it. She has made lots of friends and is now very social and outgoing where before she was very introverted.

I would rate them five on everything. They've been absolute phenomenal with my sister who is permanent resident there now.

It is a great place, we are very happy with it. I think they are a 5 on everything. My mother is very happy there and very well cared for. It is a huge improvement over her previous facility. Most of the staff, an administrative. Personnel have been there long-term, which adds to greater stability for the care of the residents. The place also has just a wonderful feel to it, and it's very welcoming.

My husband now lives in Garden House, the memory care section of Merrill Gardens. The staff have all been so very patient and kind to him (and me too) as he goes through the transition period of being a new resident. They have encouraged him to join in with the other residents in activities that are planned daily. They know all the residents well and always treat them with respect. They also maintain good contact with me to coordinate his care. He is in good hands!

I enjoy living here very much. I think all of the people that work here are very interested in us and they want to make us as happy as possible. My favorite thing about living here at turners rock is our activity director, [name removed]. He is truly the best and makes and the other residents very happy

Merrill is basically in downtown Hillsboro. Merrill main room, ie kitchen dining counter and living room larger. Pay attention to door width for people in wheelchairs etc.

The staff kindness and caring are better than a 5. It was new and modern and clean. The staff and my Mom had friends that were already there.

We visited several senior living facilities around Springfield and Nixa for place for my Mom. We were very unimpressed with most all for various reasons. It wasn't until we visited Mission Ridge that we found a place that my Mom and us were truly happy with. Some of the high points were the genuinely friendly staff from the front desk to the waiters in the cafeteria, she has now been there 3 weeks and she continues to talk about how friendly everyone is and how much she enjoys it there. Food is great and the range of social events are perfect for her. For her this was a life changing event moving from a home to a living faculty like this and the overall experience has been exceptional. I higly recoment Mission Ridge to anyone looking.

I found it very helpful that their staff was able to respond to my questions regarding my family member. They were always friendly and accommodating.

It is too expensive for what you get. Food was cold often. Cleaning crew was not the best. And maintenance was slow to respond due to being short handed.
