We have lived here for nearly two years and I am happy to say it has become a place I can recommend to anyone.The recent management has made significant progress in making this a community that I and my husband benefit from greatly.He has Alzheimers and resides in Garden House,a dementia care facility where he has his own room.I have an independent living one bedroom up just one floor from his.It means so much to us to be together for dinner in the main dining room daily and to feel as if we are still in a home.We moved here because of my husbands illness and I am glad to report he gets excellent care in his ward of about 16 residents.It is intimate and a quiet space where family members are welcome to visit.Activities keep the residents busy and the meals are identical to those served in the main dining room.The facility is kept spotless and an attached garden space is full of plants,many in flower,for strolls outdoors.The staff are caring and diligent and turn over is modest so we have grown to know them well. For me,living independently,the location is excellent near Bart and the lively Rockridge neighborhood.I highly recommend Merrill Gardens at Rockridge Elizabeth

My mother spent two very good years at Merrill Gardens at Rockridge. It is a physically lovely facility. It was brand new when she moved in and there were some start-up issues in the early months. Management and Caregiving worked on them and made noteworthy improvements. Mom loved so many people at Merrill Gardens who cared for her—and did her hair. The food was very good. Impressive entertainment. Thank you so much.

Is there an "entry fee?" If so, what is it? Thanks, SH

Hello Suzanne - Merrill Gardens does not charge an entrance fee or buy-in fee typical of a continuing care retirement community. We have a one-time community fee and offer month-to-month rental options. The community fee is significantly lower than entrance or buy-in fees. You can get the current rate information by calling the community directly or inquiring through the website.

Hod does your dining room food service work: Individual or buffet? We have observed that it makes a big difference how quickly residents get and eat meals.
