The rooms are tiny and costly. The staff turnover is constant and sometimes there isn’t staff to take care of essential duties. The transportation to appointments is seldom available but part of the cost. An overall attitude lacking concern and empathy for the residents.

My father has moved into Truewood by Merrill, Boise. He's only been there like two weeks, but so far it's been really good. The staff is super friendly. They all reached out the first day we took him in in the morning. He went into the dining room and each of the staff combined introduced themselves and made a point to say 'hi' to him throughout the day while we were going around visiting the different parts of the facility. I like it. I think it's a good place to be. My father has his own self-contained apartment, so he can come and go as he pleases. They have mealtimes down in the dining room. It's more restaurant style than cafeteria style, which I like. He likes that because then he can choose who he gets to sit by. He's starting to make friends already and just kind of fitting in. The apartment my father is in is a studio apartment. It has a little kitchenette in it. We had to furnish it, so we were able to bring in his bed, a couple of recliners for him, a TV, and some personal things from home, which has made it nice because then it feels more like home to him. So that's been a plus. With regards to activities, we haven't experienced a whole lot of that yet because my father hasn't decided to go out and about. But when we were talking to them, they gave them a monthly schedule of their activities. On Friday, they have outings to different stores every week, they have bingo during the week, they have crafts and exercises, and they do movie matinees. They have a couple of people come on different days of the week and they'll come and play music. Residents can come to sit down and have like a little light snack and a drink and enjoy the music from a piano player, a guitarist, and a couple of people singing. So that's what we've noticed so far.

Truewood by Merrill, Boise was very nice. I found that they had the largest mix of men and women. Most of the places are dominated by women. They had 24-hour a day staff, which was great, and the residents that we walked by loved the place. The facility was really nice. The layout was just not ideal for my mom. I would have had to get her a scooter or one of those things that you drive. Anybody who's wheelchair bound has to have to have a scooter, but anybody who's kind of more active, that is a fantastic place for them. They had a hair salon and they did scenic drives, which was nice. The dining room was very nice, too, and they provided a large refrigerator or you had space to put that in. So, that was nice as well.

The facility does not let you know when there's an issue with the resident/your family member. When the ambulance is called, no one lets you know about it. The staff gets mad at the resident and excludes them or ignores them until they get over it. Communication would be nice. The facility is beautiful and they have a lot to offer. The Memory Care unit is amazing and the Activities Director, [name removed] is amazing and the residents in the area love her. She seriously cares about everyone on that side!
Read moreIt's a great place for your parents to live. They have been excellent with getting things repaired that broke. An area for improvement is the billing for rent. My parents have been overcharged and are still currently trying to get that worked out.
My family and loved one had an average experience with the community. The care staff are really wonderful. The community. The community is clean. There are meals and activities available for the residents to stay social.
