Merrill Gardens in Ballard did a super job in welcoming my mom into their community. Particular attention was placed in implementing technology access to her room. Staff helped determine problems and solution to getting her home phone number ready to use, acquiring access to an internet connection, and gaining access to Pac-12 television via Fubo. In addition staff helped program her hand-held tv remote to acquire both cable tv and a Fubo app. It was a technology myriad that my mom would never have been even able to begin interacting with. Kudos, MG staff.

We couldn't be happier about having our loved one in the memory care unit at Merrill Gardens. MG has been ahead of the curve in pandemic response, keeping safety and resident well being paramount as they've instituted new procedures and routines. The entire staff has gone above and beyond to keep the residents safe, healthy and connected to their families.

My Mom loves living at Merrill Gardens. She's never lived in an apartment but adapted quickly. She enjoys interacting with other residents, eating when she wants, having a daily ice cream, exercise classes, activities, and her room. I've found the management and staff to be professional, responsive and caring. Any questions, concerns or problems we've had have been promptly and courteously addressed. Michael and Marivic have been joy to work with since MG opened in 2016.

Response from the owner
