Sometimes life requires people to move fast, in our case 10 days fast! We can't express how happy we are with our experience at Merrill Gardens at Glenn Mills.[name removed] was professional, kind and compassionate to our family's unique situation which included a super quick transition to assisted living for our mom. My brother and I live out of state; thanks to [name removed] we were able to set everything up through emails and texts 5 days prior to her move-in date! [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. Moving to Merrill Gardens at Glen Mills has greatly improved her quality of life and it's a blessing for us to know she is happy and in such good hands. We love hearing her talk about her day every evening. The ma

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.

Would recommend to others

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.

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!

Truewood by Merrill, Charlotte Center

What we like the most about Truewood by Merrill is number one, the staff. We would absolutely recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had so far.

Review for Truewood by Merrill, Georgetown

Staff is very friendly, gets to know you and your family quickly, and makes you instantly feel welcome and comfortable. Food is great. They have an excellent chef. My mom is a picky eater, and every day she's excited to go eat the gourmet food. Exercise and activities are always scheduled and they encourage and include everyone. They listen to you and react quickly. We were having a minor problem with the cooling in the room and asked if maintenance could come by and check it out. Within 1 hour, maintenance was there and completely replaced the entire air conditioning unit (which was well above our expectations and what was likely actually required). But it clearly showed they listen and care. The place is well maintained and kept up. We were very impressed with the cleanliness.
