Merrill Gardens Hillsboro is my new home. I toured with the charming [Name Removed] who was so welcoming and informative. She is an asset to the community! Later I met[Name removed], a warm, witty and kind woman who had great tips and resources for me. These two ladies lead an amazing staff who have created a wonderful community environment that is both welcoming and stimulating. I love this place!

Merrill Gardens has become my wonderful home

My overall experience here is a 5 stars! The people here are amazing. I have found a group of friends who are kind, supportive, and fun. I laugh every day. The food is good and varied. I have some food restrictions which the chefs are aware of and accommodate. There are more activities available than I can attend. From exercise classes, to games, to outings, and much more. The staff is kind, caring, and fun. The apartments are larger than the other facilities that I toured when making my decision. The hallways

Review for Merrill Gardens at Hillsboro

We live at Merrill. We have one of the larger apartments. My husband is in a wheelchair so he is able to navigate the space. Doors into the bathroom could be wider for wheelchairs. Food is good, lots of activities, good location to shopping etc. Merrill- great location for shopping and with full development of vacant land near Tuality Hospital there will be more services. It's a five year project I think. Close to light rail, post office, restaurants, good overall for walking.

Had to move my mom.

I had to do an urgent post-hospitalization move for my 93 year old mother recently. Luckily, I had already received recommendations from family members of two residents of Merrill Gardens and had planned on touring eventually for anticipated future needs. The staff of Merrill Gardens were amazing in making this move both timely and financially doable for us. I really thought Mom would be unhappy with having to change facilities but she tells me almost daily how happy she is. She loves still having her own apartment

My sister and I made an appointment to tour the facility for our father who lives in another city. We were welcomed first by a sign showing our name and then toured around by [name removed]. Merrill Gardens looks like a fantastic facility! It is just over a year old and offers spacious studio and one-bedroom units that are both functional and stylish! One of my favorite parts is the dining room that is open 7am-7pm. Our dad can just go sit and get his order taken just like at a restaurant. We were also welcomed by
