Rachel, the administrator, was very welcoming and answered our questions. Facility was organized and clean. Residents were happy!

My brother and I were invited to come for a tour to see if it was a place we’d like to have our dad do short term care after a major heart operation. We were taken around the entire facility and the place was clean and smelled nice. The staff was very friendly and our sweet tour guide answered all our questions and was very informative. We saw that there were a lot of opportunities for the residents to participate in group activities or not as they preferred. We also have 24-7 access to him if need be. That’s important for us to know we can get to him at anytime day or night. We were impressed snd decided to move forward with getting him in a room there. I’m really hoping we have a great experience once he’s there and suspect we will

This place claimed my brother, who has Down Syndrome with dementia, was violent and aggressive and sent him out not once but twice to psych hospitals for "med adjustments". My brother, who has never been on any psych medication turned into a zombie and was in a chair and couldn't walk nor feed himself for days at a time. He was being medicated to control him....the exact words of a nurse there. Thank the Lord I moved him. I do not recommend this facility!

I visited Merry Wood yesterday for a tour. The Faclity was clean the residence seems to be very well taking care of. I did like the location of the Faclity. Rachel the intake personal was amazing. She was very attentive to my concerns . When I choose a place this one is on the top of my list for my Elderly Mom and disabled sister.

My husband spent is last months there suffering from dementia. Was so pleased. It was hard to move him from our home but merrywood was a good move for him. They took such good care of him, not just him. I noticed their interactions with other patients in Memory care, almost like they would care for their own family.
