Truewood by Merrill, Modesto offers an Independent Living program designed for residents who do not require specialized dementia services. Nurses and trained caregivers are on-site to monitor health changes, coordinate with outside physicians, and arrange medication management when prescribed. Routine wellness reviews help residents and their families understand when additional support may be needed, and those services can be added without a move to another community wing.
When personal assistance is required, staff members are available around the clock to provide full help with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfers are handled according to individual ability, whether that involves a walker, wheelchair, or simple standby supervision. Caregivers document each interaction so that progress notes are current for visiting healthcare providers.
Apartments are wired for cable, and housekeeping is scheduled on a regular cycle, with laundry services offered at predetermined intervals. Some floor plans include all three features while others have a different mix, so it is best to confirm availability during a tour.
Meals are prepared daily, with the choice of a set menu or on-order options at each seating. Between meals, snacks are available, and residents can request in-room dining or reserve the private dining room for guests. The culinary team accommodates physician-ordered and resident-requested diet modifications.
Residents have access to wheelchair-friendly common areas, a barber and beauty shop, an exercise room, a movie room, a wellness center, concierge support, a library, and scheduled transportation for errands and medical appointments.
