Wonderful community

After researching several senior communities and visiting many of them, my brother chose Merrill Gardens at West Chester. [name removed] was wonderful - she led us through two separate and comprehensive tours of the community and patiently and completely answered all of our questions. She and the overall community were welcoming, vibrant and friendly and my brother felt very comfortable. While there are a number of good senior communities in the West Chester area, Merrill Gardens stood out. Fast forward a month and my brother is loving being part of the Merrill Gardens community - the staff is great, the amenities are top notch and he raves about the food! We heartily recommend Merrill Gardens for senior personal care and independent living.

[name removed] communicated with us daily so we would have a smooth transition, and we cannot thank her enough. The staff at Merrill Gardens are top notch and really care about the residents. Everyone made mom feel welcome right away, she has been living there for only 3 weeks and is happily enjoying her daily activities.

Overall, we would recommend. our family is very satisfied!

The facility is very nice and new. I am paying less than half of what memory care costs on Denver. The team was helpful in facilitating paperwork even though I am 3 states away. Moving in was very easy as there were staff available to assist with any questions we had and gave us a code to go in and out of the facility.

The staff is always pleasant and consistent. I think the only thing I don't care for is you walk into the TV room where a lot of residents are sleeping/resting. I like the live music. Room sizes are good. Some have 2 residents to a room. Which, I personally would not want. No dividers. No privacy.

Smaller homey facility

We chose this facility because it was smaller and has a very homey feel. The Admin., and nursing staff are very friendly and always have time to speak to us when we have questions. The value for the dollar is better than some others we visited before choosing Truewood. They also seemed to be staffed well compared to the facility my mother is in. There are at least 5 daily activities available to the residents and there are always residents gathering in the library or common rooms during the day. So, that means most aren't isolating themselves in their rooms.

Merrill Gardens at Tukwila

Look at all of your options and find a good fit. This particular choice matched what my father was looking for. The staff is friendly and accommodating. If I need attention to a issue they are quick to respond.

Recommend with confidence

We would give them a five in all categories. The Pines is an excellent facility. You can recommend that facility with confidence. The staff is extremely caring and attentive.

Happy with our choice

I love Merrill Gardens. I'm very happy with the place. The residents seem happy as they make eye contact with visitors and say hello, which did not happen at the other facilities i visited. Also you see residents playing games throughout the day. And the caretakers working there are very friendly and helpful!
