A Place for Mom has scored Merrill Gardens with 8.8 out of 10 using our proprietary review score based on 702 reviews in the last 2 years. Over all time, Merrill Gardens has 2,443 reviews with an average "overall experience" of 4.3 out of 5.
Overall cleanliness is very good however the staff is not given the time to change water for mopping in between apartments so if your not first on the route you have dirty water. Staff seem very good however management is very corporate and get around to you at their convenience and seem to assume that the residents all have some memory issues. Same two main meals for lunch and dinner and the other choices never change. The cost for a guest is now $17 for breakfast and $ 20 for both lunch and dinner. The food is average at best the service is sub par. She really doesn't participate they are the same as any retirement facility no real imagination. When entering she was told there would be increases annually but never have they been more then 3% - her first year increase was 10%.

She loves it there except for the food. She says it is so bad, with only a few exceptions. I have to supply her with so many meals. Lots of $ spent on food because she will not eat most of theirs and they do not take requests for substitutes.

Staff are personable, pleasant, welcoming, and know the residents by name making it a very caring environment.. Facility common areas are clean, comfortable, inviting and neatly kept, as well as are the residents rooms. There is No conveniently located public transportation for half a mile to a mile away as indicated in the amenities. There's a variety in choices of meals, which are well prepared and served; and the dining area is appealing. The laundry room for residents to do their personal laundry id unkempt; laudry is left in the dryers and washer way after they have cycled complte. Magnets with room numbers are to be used to identify who the loads belong to, yet they serve no purpose because they're not being used.

They have recently changed ownership, there has been no bus (despite advertised), there is no bookkeeper, trying to get billing errors fixed has been tough. High turn over, no checks and balances in regard to medications and care. Emergency pull cords in room, batteries in them must die because no one comes. Across the board rate increases of January despite no improved services. New "Chef" residents don't care for food, little to no meat. Management and staff are friendly probably doing the best they can. I really want it to be a good experience but I have to really watch everything and drop in at various hours almost daily to keep abreast to what's happening or not happening.

Merrill Gardens doesn't have anyone on staff who is specifically defined to technical support, such as lessons to seniors re how to use your cell phone or whose job is to give tech support if your computer or printer isn't working right etc. Seniors weren't born in the "techie age". I have been helped by some staff members when I needed it, but have been told it isn't their job. I would pay extra monthly to have this included. Twice my computer was disconnected to my printer and each time it was due to a power outage here. I was I informed that still didn't make Merrill Gardens responsible for reconnecting them. There isn't a lot of entertainment. Housekeeping doesn't do much. I have to clean dust from baseboards etc. I didn't get an orientation, but I'm independent. The food is good, however the serving staff are still learning to clean tables after a group has left and before another group of diners sit down. The staff are friendly. Having a garage space for my vehicle is great.

Restaurant style dining and surprising how well dining staff know and care about residents, the feeling of family overall, the openness and welcoming upon entering, the different variety of activities, and genuine feeling of care majority of care staff gives my husband. I know he has improved so much, I feel he is safe, encouraged and welcome in the community.
