When my mom was apart of this community she had good care and she enjoyed her stay very much. It is a brand new faculty and doe not have their AL license yet. In April they will have their license for AL. With that in mind they were limited in what they could provide. However they had an outside agency help with the care for the residents. It was a good experience even though it was limited.

April 14, 2017Thank you for sharing this feedback with us. We are so glad to hear that your mom had good care when she was at Merrill Gardens.
My dad just moved in. He loves it, he already calls Merrill Gardens his home. His absolute favorite thing is his walk in shower! Falling has been such a big concern for him. He loves the food and everyone is nice!! His apartment is just lovely.

March 31, 2017We are so glad to hear that your dad is happy with his new home at Merrill Gardens. It is great that he is enjoying the food and his apartment.
When I toured the Merrill Gardens at Auburn, I noticed that the place was very nice and so were the people. When I got there for my tour, the tour guide was on time and had a lot of information for me. The place was a good choice, but we picked another community that we thought would for my mother's needs better.

This looked like a nice community when I visited. This community is in a busy area, however I was looking for something a little quieter. The people I met were nice.
