All American Assisted Living at Coram is a breath of fresh air after all the other previous communities our loved one has lived in. She has gone from being a total recluse to wheeling herself around in her wheelchair just living her life. The activities director [name removed] has done a wonderful job, and [name removed] who takes care of everything else and who has been there for a few months now is great. He goes out of his way to help schedule appointments for our loved one and keep us up to day. The only issues we have is that sometimes the response time is a little slow which can be frustrating.

Overall, the place is lovely. The people are lovely. I think certain things are just getting off the ground, and they're having the same problems everybody else is right now - hiring a good chef, hiring a driver for the van. But I think that will all work itself out. The only issue my loved one has mentioned to me is there's room for improvement with the food. She says the quality is just not great overall, and it's definitely not gourmet.

The gal who gave us the tour was great. When I walked in I did get a faded, old resort feel from the facility.

Communication could be better with the family, but the staff is amazing, and if I call with a question they answer immediately. They have a 4 o'clock happy hour, and I would like to retire here also. I would definitely recommend this community to others and we have already two of her friends.

I wanted to share our families experience.. not only is this a beautiful building and the cranberry bog setting, speechless .Residents are always happy and well cared for. During difficult times of limited visitation due to pandemic, AAAL Wareham is doing everything they can to keep residents safe, happy and entertained.

I have two friends living at All American Assisted Living and have visited about 30 times. This place is by far the best I have ever seen, the staff are just what they should be, knowledgeable, helpful and caring. The place is always clean and have activities all day long. Also they have a nurse on staff, apt program. The food is excellent, tasteful and served by a friendly staff. If you or a family member needs this type of care, do your self a favor a take a tour, you won't know unless you visit. My opinion 5 star rating

It turns out that a pot of gold was found at Merryvale on September [date removed]. The wealth is the care provided to its residents! Thanks for all ya’ll do for my daddy [name removed]!

This is an amazing place to have a loved one. My brother- in- law has been here almost a year and I have no complaints. Every time I go the staff is so very helpful and the place is exceptionally clean. They have many activities for the residents and the staff get to know their residents personally. It is such a plus to have a nurse on duty all the time. It puts my mind at ease knowing they will call the minute anything happens. Would recommend to anyone.

Choosing to place my dad at an assisted living facility was probably one of the hardest decisions I have had to make. I originally had him in a different place, but it turned out not to be a good fit for him or his needs. I needed him out of there very quickly and All American came to the rescue. After calling Caring for Mom, the director from All American immediately called me and saw me that day!! He sat with me, discussed everything from the food, activities, rooms, care and had me meet some residents. Dad is a very picky eater and he assured me that would not be a problem with their "restaurant style dining". He can also be difficult, because of course he would rather be home, but the staff is very good and keeps me constantly updated. The director is always available which I love. Great communication is so important. From the moment I walked in I felt comfortable. It is so beautiful and brand new. It is truly like a 5 star hotel. The grounds are well kept, and in and out are exceptionally maintained. The staff is so friendly and caring beginning with the front desk person all the way to the waitstaff. They are so accommodating with his every need. The price is very fair and I love that there are no "hidden" fees. Everything is included which was amazing to me because that is not the case in most places. I also love that they have a memory care unit right in the same building for if and when dad may need that level of care. I have witnessed several amazing staff members working with those residents as well, bringing them outside often on walks and also on community trips. That helped put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend All American Assisted Living to anyone who is faced this decision. I now know that this was the right decision for my dad and could not be more impressed with the facility, staff and overall experience at All American.

We really feel athat home here. The staff is friendly and are there for us with whatever we need. We are at peace here. The room is easier to get around in when you are in a wheelchair.

I highly recommend this community to anyone looking into retirement. My mother is absolulty loving her new apartment and the staff have been wonderful at helping her make the adjustment period as comfortable as possible. She has also been participating in a lot of the different activities they have available during the week and making lots of new friends with the other residents.

The staff at this community are courteous and listen to the family. They offer daily activities. The food is good and they have variety to choose from. The community is clean and well maintained. This community gets this recommended.

Mom has been at the facility for exactly one week. Everyone has been very nice and helpful to both Mom and us. Coming from a rehab facility Mom has to do much for for herself, but with help, is adjusting very nicely. She even likes the food!

I am impressed with All American Assisted Living. The staff are always friendly and helpful. Everyone appears to be happy working there and the people living there look like they are enjoying themselves. Everyone is treated with respect. There is a variety of events to attend on the calendar. I like the idea that there is a menu to choose from so the patients still have a choice of what they have for their meals. It is very clean and attractive.

Excellent place for Mom, she is doing very well.

Our mother spent almost 2 years at Merryvale and we were very pleased by the care and compassion the staff showed her and our family. I think it is telling that most of the staff remained intact for the 2 years she was there. That tells me that management cares about the staff which means they care about the residents. Our mother was able to transition from minimal care to full memory care and the transition, while a little traumatic for mother, was done with assistance from the staff. When she made her last move the staff took a picture of her old room and arranged the new room identically to the new room. She never knew she had been moved. Now that is care and compassion. We highly recommend Merryvale.

My father was a resident at Merryvale Assisted living close to four years. He always referred to Merryvale as "home" where he felt close to those who ministered his well-being and secure in their application of his daily routine and medications. My experience of being in the room with Dad day and night the last four days of his life demonstrated to me vividly why he was content there. All of the administration showed care and concern until his last breath. They presented the family with computer photographs they had taken of Dad during the "fun and smiles" he displayed during their fellowship and game time. Though mid-nineties and legally blind from macular degeneration they were very patient with him even during outings with his walker, craft-time and his favorite.....Bingo. Being an ordained minister, my Dad appreciated the spiritual services and made many friends.

Our dad, a retired minister, was a guest at Merryvale for about three years. We cannot say enough about the caring staff and the service he received for all those years. At the end, hospice was called in and the cooperation was magnificent. Gena and her staff will welcome your loved one and make them feel just like family; and you will be relieved knowing the kind of care they are receiving. Each day is filled with as many activities as one can enjoy. God bless you, Merryvale! George Warren Family member

I've had a good amount of experience with this community in the past, although I did not end up selecting it during my current search. It is a very nice, well kept place, and the staff are friendly and professional. They've done a great job in the past, and they are definitely worth a look if you are looking into senior care in the area!

I have been very impressed with the kindness and compassion of the people who help my mother with her needs. I would hope that they are well compensated for the wonderful care they give to all of the residents, because they are the backbone of AAAL. I also find that the residents, themselves, are a great group of individuals. Almost all of the folks who work at AAAL are honestly interested in the residents' well-being -- emotional and otherwise. They work from the viewpoint that this is 'home' for the residents and, as such, they should feel comfortable, happy and proud. I have seen only one example of a newly-hired employee who tends to be defensive with resident and family. That may not be important in another work environment, but it makes a huge difference in this environment. Besides the residence being lovely, clean and safe (which it is), the preparation of food needs to be maintained as it was when the facility first opened. AAAL in Hanson has only been open since December and I think they have done a superior job considering that there will be hiccups with any new venture while the team settles in. I am thrilled that my loved one is at AAAL and at this time I would recommend AAAL to anyone who asks me.
