Truewood by Merrill, Fig Garden is structured for residents who are largely independent and do not require specialized memory care. The community’s independent living program allows residents to maintain control of their daily routines while having access to medication management monitoring and prompt assistance with activities of daily living only if these needs emerge over time.
Care is supported by staff who have undergone background checks, with an awake night shift in place to respond to emergencies. An activity director oversees programming throughout the day, and the property is monitored by 24-hour security. A fenced rear area and in-unit pull-cord alert system add another layer of safety. When residents need hands-on help, trained team members can assist with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfer support is available for those who use walkers or wheelchairs.
Apartments vary in layout; some have private bathrooms, some include kitchenettes, and selected units feature independent temperature controls or cable connections. Because features differ from unit to unit, prospective residents should confirm which amenities are present in specific floor plans before making a decision.
Daily meals follow a set menu prepared by the culinary staff, with options adjusted for common dietary requirements. Independent living residents can opt into a monthly meal plan, and all enjoy the convenience of weekly housekeeping and laundry services included in the program. Medication management monitoring is also available for those who prefer professional oversight of prescriptions.
Residents have access to on-site parking, outdoor smoking areas, and common spaces designed to be fully wheelchair accessible. An exercise room and reliable internet service support physical fitness and online communication. Scheduled transportation is offered for medical appointments or errands, and the campus is situated close to public transit for those who prefer to travel independently.
