Merrill Gardens

My sister in law is doing well here at this community. She seems to like here. The community is very well maintained, her room and the facility is very nice and clean. They have a wonderful staff here, they have been great to work with. She is pleased with the food. I know she is safe and in good hands. This is a community I would recommend.

I met with Jennipher a few weeks ago at Sheldon Park, and I felt comfortable and at home the moment I walked in - the staff welcoming and greeting me with genuine smiles. Jennipher herself is amazing and dedicated to her work with a true passion, and you can see it on the faces of everyone else who works there, as well. The residents are happy and treated like family, the facility is clean and bright feeling, and there's an atmosphere of care and peace wherever you go. I've seen several of the other retirement/senior living communities across town, and none of them live up to the standards of Sheldon Park. They're an amazing community. :)

I love it, they are so helpful, and they are really nice. They sent someone to help me unpack on the first day. They check on me to see if I'm okay or need anything. The food isn't the best and I've heard that the previous chef was better. Everything but the food would be a five, I am just really impressed.

My mother is doing very well at this community. She is very happy and has adjusted well to it. The community looks great, they keep everything nice and very clean. The staff has been very good to work with. They are very helpful and kind. There are many activities offered, she is trying a few. She likes the food, the meals are nice. They are caring for her well and I would recommend it.

My mother is still adjusting to community, but everything else is working out very well. The community looks great, they do a very good job of keeping everything nice and clean. The staff has been great to work with. They are always willing to help. They are very friendly and kind as well. There are many activities offered through out the week. The food is good, they do serve well balanced meals. It is a bit expensive, but it has been worth. It is a great place for my mother to be. I would recommend it.

I met with Jennipher at Sheldon Park Senior Living. As soon as I walked in I was greeted with a smile and was offered fresh baked cookies or muffins. The residents roamed freely and had smiles on their faces. They had a great landscape and classes for guest and residents. What a great place!

My 95 year old aunt just moved into Barkley place! So far we are very pleased. All staff are friendly, kind, and eager to help. The food is very good and the menu is varied and changes constantly. The building is kept very neat and clean and there is an amazing, varied array of activities for the residents. Amenities include a swimming pool, exercise room, lounge, pool table room, beautiful gardens with benches for sitting outdoors and even a hair and nail salon. Their prices are quite reasonable for all they have to offer. There are always nursing staff and therapists available. My aunt is currently renting a studio but is already talking about upgrading to a one-bedroom. She seems very happy there and this is her first experience with living on her own and not with family members.

Sunshine Villa was super. The experience was great.

Really liked the manager David. Seems to genuinely care about the residents. Residents appeared happy. Had lunch and it was very good. Nice roomy apartments. Very well maintained.

My Father-in-law moved into Fig Garden last month following a serious illness. Everyone was SO welcoming and went out of their way to make him feel like it was his home. He is already making friends and participating in activities. He told me today that he couldn't have lunch with me because he didn't want to miss lunch with his 'group'! A special shout-out to all of the managers, Mary from Housekeeping and all of the Golden Care girls (especially Ada and Brenda) for making him feel like family!

Beautiful plans not ready soon enough

It's only been 2 weeks but I am really pleased with the staff and they know who you are when you walk in and are available if you need them. The staff is very personable and cater to your needs. I like the idea of paying for the care based on that persons needs, that way you aren't over or under paying. Thank you

As a professional working with people with chronic health conditions, I am often explaining the value assisted living provides. Medication mismanagement, falls at home and isolation are the reasons these services exist. I have referred people to Sheldon Park because I know the management staff continually works to provide appropriate & innovative services. They are friendly and really care about their residents.

Nice clean friendly place.

My mother has been in a one bedroom apartment for 3 weeks at Merrill Gardens, Willow Glen. I am impressed by the friendliness of the staff and quality of care they are providing my mother. She is making friends and going to activities.

I have nothing but nice things to say about Mistywood. It is such a beautiful place both inside and out. Of course Dad could go without being there but it is definitely the right community for his needs at the time. He is not completely happy with the dining experience but other than that it really is an awesome place and the food is good. The staff have been completely receptive and warm. Anytime we've gone whether it's during the day or in the evening the place is in tip top condition.

Mom is doing very well at Merrill Gardens. Since moving in she's made quite a few friends and the food there is fantastic! The staff have been great and I'm hoping that with time Mom will start to participate in the many activities they have for the residents!

I am a student at the U of O and I visited Sheldon Park a couple weeks ago for a class project. They were putting on a jazz concert for their residents. As soon as I entered the building I was pleasantly surprised by how beautiful and modern it was. I didn't feel like I was in a nursing home. I was immediately assisted by someone at the door who greeted me with a smile. Jennipher [removed] was the most helpful and answered any questions I asked her and continued to check on me throughout my time at Sheldon Park even though she was busy with the event. The residents were so pleasant and happy compared to other nursing homes I have visited in the past. I look forward to volunteering there in the future.

I have been to Sheldon park assisted living on a few different occasions and have found the staff to be very tentative and helpful. The building has always appeared very clean and smells clean. I haven't tried their food there, but it smells good. I always see the residents smiling and active within the building. I will definitely look into this facility for placement of my loved one when the time comes.

Sheldon Park is an excellent place to check out should you find yourself or a loved one in need of a caring and loving assisted living or memory care environment. Sheldon Park has earned the respect and support of senior providers and healthcare professionals throughout Lane County. As a marketing director in Independent living, I often refer seniors to Sheldon Park that need more than my community can provide.
