ASSISTED LIVING
Caring vs. Providing Care Our Assisted Living Service Program is focused on nurturing residents to help them reach their maximum potential. Our staff seeks to foster independence rather than dependence, and to be sensitive to the individuality, privacy and freedom of choice to which our residents are entitled. In short, care is something we do, not simply a service we provide.
Personal Care Services Our program generates an individually tailored service plan that supports the resident's own ability to perform activities of daily living. Services we can assist with may include:
Responding to Change We meet the changing needs of our residents by offering a fee structure that addresses the degree of need and frequency of interaction. The resident's monthly fee may increase or decrease as their needs change. Our trained staff documents services provided, and notes trends that may demonstrate a higher level of need.
Team Work It's a team effort that works best. In order to meet our residents' needs, we are in frequent contact with families as well as physicians, counselors or therapists to discuss any challenges we may encounter.
INDEPENDENT LIVING
Whether happily married or recently single, independent living at Merrill Gardens will provide the flexibility and freedom you deserve with the peace of mind you desire. Let us take care of the chores, including cooking, housekeeping, and apartment and yard maintenance, so that you can focus on the things you love in life.
If your needs should change, we will gladly assist you by providing an individualized care plan to suit your needs. Our communities offer private apartments with generous living space, with a choice of floor plans to fit your lifestyle. We also welcome all the personal touches that make a house a home, including your small pet.
