Truewood by Merrill, West Covina offers two primary care options: independent living for residents who want a maintenance-free lifestyle and memory care for those living with dementia. A licensed nurse oversees care plans, while on-site professionals—including occupational and physical therapists, a podiatrist and hospice specialists—help manage changing health needs. Routine medication management is available, and the community’s memory care program is designed to support cognitive health through structured activities and close supervision.

Daily living support is provided on an as-needed basis. Staff can offer some physical assistance with bathing, dressing, eating and toileting, allowing residents to maintain as much independence as possible. Transfer help ranges from standby supervision to hands-on support with walkers or wheelchairs. This graduated approach lets care adjust smoothly as mobility or strength changes.

Residences include studio and one-bedroom layouts, and not every apartment has every feature. Depending on the unit selected, residents may have a private bathroom, a kitchenette or both. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are standard, reducing household burdens while keeping living spaces clean.

Dining is designed to be flexible. Residents can select from a set menu, order meals on demand or request in-room dining when preferred. Snacks are available throughout the day, and a private dining room can be reserved for family visits. The culinary team accommodates diet modifications and physician-ordered meal plans without surcharge.

Beyond direct care, the community features an exercise room, a wellness center staffed for routine health monitoring, a concierge desk, a library and a game room. Scheduled transportation is offered for medical appointments, shopping and local outings, helping residents stay connected with the greater West Covina area.
