    Truewood by Merrill is a very clean community and the staff members are very nice. The meals and dining service is awesome, we are able to visit with our loved one and eat the same meals and not only do they cater to our loved one but also to our family. The residents are able to mingle in their own community and within their community they all have their own apartments, and their own dining room. Also when it comes to the value for cost they are up front with you about exactly what you are getting and you can even tweak it a little in case there is a service you don't need or want to pay a different way. Also another thing we love, is they allow families to stay over a night. We have a family member staying with our loved one for a week, and she will have her own apartment, she eats all the meals for free and can participate in all the activities, and it is not very expensive at all.

    The staff members have been really friendly and genuine towards our family. Our loved one does not really participate in the activities due to his health, but the activities director does a great job reaching out to encourage him without us having to initiate that.
