Review for Merrill Gardens at Greenville

Management can always be counted on. Last year we were without power for several days. Staff came in and slept in the building, took food to people that were unable to climb the stairs cooked outside on grills, had pizzas delivered, etc. Recently there was a gas leak because a workman broke a pipe. They made sure we all got out of the building., arranged for us to go across the street to another building until it was safe to come back. they had arranged for buses to bring us back to our building and they had pizzas waiting for us because they couldn't use the kitchen.

Great experience at Mission Ridge

From the first time Mom and I walked into Mission Ridge there have only positive experiences. [name removed] made us feel very welcome and provided all the information we needed to make the decision to move Mom into independent living at Mission Ridge. All the staff have lived up to the high bar that was set the first day. They call her by name and have made her move transition so easy. Any questions we’ve had have been answered in a timely manner and staff going the extra mile has been the norm! We’re so thankful to have Mom living in a safe and happy environment.

The Wright Park location of this senior living facilità makes it superior

The unique location of this senior facility superior to its competition. The park offers opportunities for meaningful exploration while exercising, and its evolving seasons keeps it always fresh. The neighborhood around the facility offers abundant shops and curiosities within walking distance. The Merrill Gardens facility itself also makes it an excellent place to live. The place is actually small enough (not much over 100 residents) that all its residents can get to know each other . The organized activities are various and plentiful. There is a fine movie series, many outings, and lots of arts, equipment, and games available (like Jeopardy.) There seens to be a willingness on the part of the staff to encourage suggestions for new things. I looked at the competirion and have no doubt I chose the best place.

New Beginnings at 90yo

The staff was very helpful from the front desk, intake staff and nurse. Certainly there is paperwork and an assessment but all went smoothly. Once moved in the residents welcomed my mother in law into the community. She also likes the menu so she can choose what she would like to eat that day. She especially likes the salmon dinner. The caregivers have been very helpful walking her to the dining room as she was getting acquainted with where everything is located. Highly recommend Merrill Gardens.

Review for Murano Senior Living

I would absolutely recommend Murano. Living here feels like staying in a boutique hotel elegant and welcoming! While there have been a few small glitches, the staff consistently go above and beyond, which more than makes up for it.

our families experience, overall a nice community, would recommend

It is great to be close to baseball field and other restaurants within walking distance. My mom is an active 90 year old that likes to walk the park. And we walk up to baseball game and publico restaurant. Active community
