My dad was previously a resident at Truewood by Merrill Clovis and the experience was great for him. They took great care of my dad. Unfortunately, we had to leave because the cost of care was raised out of his affordability and his care needs increased.

My mom passed away in [date removed] , but I will say Merrill Gardens was great with my mom and addressed any issues that we brought up promptly. Kept us informed if she was not feeling well on any given day. Very good. I would give them a 5. If I did have a issue they addressed it immediately. They were very good to my mother.

Definitely recommended

Overall, I've been pleased with Truewood by Merrill Henderson. When I moved here, I used a mover recommended by Truewood and they did a great job and were very reasonable. The staff here is great. Very friendly and helpful. Housekeeping does a good job and they let me know when they're coming. The food is okay and sometimes it's even great. The servers are very good and they seem to know everyone's name. The facility is on the old side, but they maintain it well. I would definitely recommend this place.

Review for Merrill Gardens at Glen Mills

We had a great experience. My dad loved living here and we were very relieved to see him adjust quickly to the environment, make friends and feel like he belonged. Any one interested in a location for their parent should tour the community. You feel welcomed to stay from the moment you walk to the doors. It's not too big, there is plenty to do, the food is great, and the staff is like family.

Our family is extremely happy with our experience with A Place For Mom as well as with Merrill Gardens. Everyone with whom we've been in touch has been helpful, kind, responsive, and knowledgeable. I'd recommend A Place For Mom/Merrill Gardens to anyone looking for a seamless experience. The service helps you and your loved one to feel looked-after as you go through what is often an emotionally-charged process.
