Overall experience

Truewood is beautifully kept. My mother enjoys participating in bingo, crafts and chair Zumba. She also participates in their weekly outings. She says the food is good and appreciates the chef personally describing each entree. The staff is very personable, caring and attentive. She loves her apartment being on the ground floor with a patio that has landscaping along it. The size is just right for her. She's added a microwave, George Forman mini grill, toaster, coffee maker and minicrockpot as she adjusts to not having a full kitchen, even though her meals are included.

The eating area is nice, decent food. It's a mix an assisted and senior living people, more of an atmosphere of like a [name removed] than just a quiet depressing assisted living dining area. He also has an option to eat in a smaller food area close to his room if not wanting to go to tge main area. They've had construction going on in the past year putting new windows in and re-do of the hallways. It's getting there. The workers are all nice, good and nursing. They have pt/ot there and he's been doing that lately but he's not interested in activities other than watching his tv.

A place you can really be at home.

I moved to Merrill Gardens shortly after I lost my husband. I could see that it was lovely, but I didn’t know if I would fit in if I would enjoy if it would meet my needs. It is a great place to live. Merrill Gardens at Wright Park has everything you would want. The apartments are lovely well maintained. The staff is like family. I think they are exceptionally good. The food is well prepared and you can eat at any time from 7 to 7. There are good activities and fun trips. The atmosphere is good. There are movies every night and fun parties. Best of all are the people who live here doesn’t take long to fit in and everyone has been kind and welcoming. I believe that this facility is the best of the best. Come along and see you won’t be disappointed.

Merrill Gardens is a welcoming and warm place. The General Manager and the administration staff is very warm and helpful. I feel that this is a real community and the administration sets the tone. I love the idea of the all day dining, you can have a meal or snacks at any time. I love the location of Merrill Gardens, it is within a residential area, surrounded by parks, trees and walking paths. It is very convenient to everything.

I thank God every day He found this place for us!!

I've lived at Merrill Gardens for 11 months. Loved it from the first day, although I didn't get to enjoy all the activities for many months due to having a back injury. But the first great thing I found was how friendly and helpful the staff is. This goes for the residents as well. For the past several months since my back has healed, I've been enjoying so many fun things regularly. Weekly I enjoy water aerobics, karaoke, Bible study, Sunday church service and watercolor workshop. Monthly I love the Ladies tea and going out to lunch. They have talented musical entertainment every couple of weeks. The food here is superb! It's like having a restaurant in your home since you can eat anytime you want. The evening meals are like a Sunday dinner, always special & the desserts are to die for! There are many other activities I hope to do in time. It is so peaceful to sit in the lovely gardens. My only regret is that we didn't move here 10 years ago so we would have had more years to enjoy it!

Review for Truewood by Merrill, Glen Riddle

We loved Truewood! Hated to leave there. Everyone was super nice!! The place was clean as well. I would absolutely recommend them to others who are searching for a place for their loved one.

Merrill Gardens at Barkley Place

[Name removed] spent four hours with us when we toured the property and took the time to introduce [name removed] to everyone we met. By the end of the visit, he felt completely comfortable and ready to move in. The maintenance staff is also excellent, and both the maintenance person and the tech specialist have been very helpful and responsive.

It's a difficult situation to have to take your loved one from their independent living situation that they've fought for all their lives and put them into an assisted living facility like this. However, the people at Pine Rock Manor were awesome and really try hard to make it a good experience. An unfortunate reality of healthcare is that people can become desensitized to the ugly parts of their job as the years go on. That did not appear to be the case with these folks, the intentional care was very apparent, despite it all, and they go very much out of their way to show kindness to the residents and visitors like myself. Very impressed with this place!

Great fit

[name removed] is safe and being taken care of. The staff is caring and kind. Dr. [name removed] has been very supportive and is looking out for [name removed]. There are lots of activities that are available and cover different areas of interest. She feels the food sometimes lacks spices.

[name removed] gave us a wonderful tour and took the time to get to know my father. She provided us with clear information and answered all of our questions. Very pleased with [name removed] and the structure of the entire community.
