Everyone - all of them - are very attentive and kind. The food is just not very tasty to me. Veggies are not flavorful. Seems not very high quality. Would recommend Mercer Terrace highly.... Read more

I had a pleasant tour of this community. It was a good experience overall, but unfortunately this was not the community for my love one, and her needs.

This is a nice community and I like that it is close to me. The doors are always locked and you need a code to get in. They always seem to have something going on and mom seems to like the food. I am happy with the staff as they are friendly and helpful. This community is a good value for us and I would recommend this community.

The staff are supportive, friendly and helpful. They offer daily activities and the staff encourages the residents to participate in some of them. Mom seems to like the food and the community is well taken care of. This is a smaller community and feels more like home. I would recommend this community.

We are having issues with the maintenance and housekeeping staff.My mother-in-law asked for a week for them to defrost her freezer. They told her yesterday they defrosted it but it is still full of ice. There seems to be a lack of consistency with the care. I think they should be more straightforward with me and receptive to concerns.

I toured this community for my mother. My tour went pretty well. The staff answered my questions and were informative. Also the staff I met was very kind and friendly. My mother required some skilled nursing and I didn't think this community would be able to provide it. This is a nice community with a friendly staff.

We toured here when we were looking for a place. The residents seemed very happy here. They had a good vibe. However the building was older, and we did see some roaches running around. I liked that they introduced us to everyone on the tour. Unfortunately it was too expensive for us, and out of our budget, so not really a good option.

The place has a piano in the cafeteria. There is a game room and business center with computers and faxes and everything. The front desk receptionist is very friendly and kind and helpful.

It is clean and they are very nice and my mother-in-law is very happy there, but you can come in at all times during the day and no one is around. There is very little staff and administration leaves early, so I wonder about her safety. I walk in all the time and don't see anyone there.

My mother spent her last 30 days at Mercer Place. She was treated with the dignity and respect we had hoped for. With the small number of residents, it allowed employees more hands on time with residents who required the extra help - or at least more individual attention than we had witnessed at a much larger facility. We felt is was a good choice for our situation.

I did overall like it. The director and the staff were great. It was overall good. There was a problem with my loved one's medications. There was a mix up and issue that bothered me. That was 1 or 2 particular people and not the whole facility. There use to be an activities board but it has been taken down. There use to be an activities director that was all smiles but they have a new woman who never smiles. Other than that, It's a nice place. I did feel like my mom was safe there.

There seems to be a lack of attention to detail with the management at this facility. Also there have been several personnel who have left since we put my mother-in-law in the facility on February 1st. One week her laundry was picked up on Tuesday and kept in the laundry room through the following Sunday without being laundered. Her bed was not being changed on a routine basis until we complained. At the present time we are not sure that she is getting a shower a least every other day. I think the corporate office needs to get involved with the operation of this facility.

Response from Mercer Terrace
April 9, 2015Thank you for taking the time to provide us with this valuable feedback. Please call our Enlivant Cares team at [removed] so that we may respond directly to your concern. Your trust and satisfaction is very important to us.
My Mom was only there one week and a day before she passed away but they were very friendly and provided her and me everything needed. They were very encouraging before she even arrived. You couldn't ask for better help.

So far it's going pretty good. We haven't had any complaints so far. It's clean and the staff is friendly. We haven't had complaints about food at all. We mostly chose them for the location, and the proximity to family. So far it's working out fine.

I met with Sandra and took a tour of the facility. It is a smaller property than others I have visited, but it was very nice. The rooms are nice - more of a mini-suite with a small kitchen and living area, full bath, and sleeping area. I would definitely consider this property except for the fact that the monthly cost is over our budget.

A Place for Mom has scored Mercer Terrace 8.4 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.
We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.
Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
