The Pines Of Newmarket review

The Pines is a perfect fit for my Mom. The staff are are kind, courteous & friendly & very nice to mom. There are a lot of fun things for me to do when she feels up to. For the value for cost, I can't answer this as my brother & sister handle this part. As far as I can tell, the staff always looks out for & will call my sister asap if there are any issues. I would recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had.

Great facility

The staff there are really great, and turnover has been relatively low, which means the people who care for mom on a daily basis are very familiar with her needs. Also, she has friendly people dropping in to check on her frequently throughout the day. In addition to three meals a day, someone also comes by with snacks (fruit, granola, cookies, sandwich bites, etc) twice a day.

Truewood by Merrill: A Home Away From Home

I've been incredibly impressed with Truewood by Merrill in Pinole. The community has a warm and welcoming atmosphere, largely due to the amazing staff who have become like family. Many of them have been with the community for over a decade, demonstrating a true commitment to the residents. The location is absolutely fantastic! It offers a peaceful and serene environment while still being conveniently located near amenities. I've noticed that the community is undergoing some wonderful renovations, including fresh paint, new lighting, and upgraded carpeting. The attention to detail is evident, and it's clear that the community is dedicated to providing the best possible living experience for its residents. The new outdoor railings are a great addition and enhance the overall appeal of the community. I wholeheartedly recommend Truewood by Merrill to anyone considering independent living. It's more than just a place to reside; it's a place to thrive and build lasting friendships.

A wonderful and safe place for your loved one

The staff is very friendly, they also make a very special effort to get to know each resident , there needs and family members personally. We have always felt very welcomed, and have seen the personal help and needs to the residents. As far as the food goes, they did have a meeting with the staff and residents to work on this. It is very pricey, but she's very happy there so you can't put a price on that.

Friendly staff

[name removed] not happy with many of their meals, I tell him he's just spoiled. We've been having trouble getting TrueWood to make sure that he has transportation to and from his doctors appointments. There are very few activities that [name removed]is interested in leaving his room to go and participate in. Thanks for asking for my response. I've also been neglectful in thanking you for helping me find TrueWood for [name removed]. I couldn't have done it without A Place For Mom. Thank you so very much.

Strongly recommend putting Truewood on your list.

The staff there are very friendly and caring and it is a big reason. I chose Truewood over some of the other facilities in our area. The independent living apartments are on the older side however, their well-maintained. The grounds are pretty and they're very accommodating for customizations if desired. If they are still offering the independent plus program that is a fabulous option for people in independent living that need to be checked in on. It provides assistance with meals by bringing them to the apt. if they're not up to going to the dining room laundry, cleaning in case of my mom an occasional dog walk.

Our family is extremely grateful for the care and love that was given to our mom during her 7 months...

We we're very impressed with all aspects of Truewood by Merrill, New Bern! They cared very well for my mother-in-law who just passed away almost 2 weeks ago. Thank you so much for your help in finding this facility. "Our family is extremely grateful for the care and love that was given to our mom during her 7 months at Truewood

Review for Merrill Gardens at Glen Mill

They are a very dedicated group here. Everyone goes out of their way to help you. They have someone come in every Thursday to do a show. There is always an activity in the morning and then some thing in the afternoon. We have happy hour Every Friday. Besides this there us bingo. Po keno puzzles and a huge librar' exercise room and a poker room. We definitely made the right choice coming here. We have had the same staff since we have been here where we came from the managers challenged areas every 2 months. I highly recommend this place You are in a safe environment
