Merrill Gardens at Solivita Marketplace delivers three levels of residential care—Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care—within one campus, allowing residents to remain in familiar surroundings even as their needs change. The community accepts individuals who wander during the day or at night, manage elopement risks, require oxygen, have complex wound-care plans, or need special dietary accommodations. Residents living with diabetes receive support whether they use oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale insulin, and the team is prepared for advanced dementia presentations that demand heightened supervision and structure.
Continuous clinical oversight is built into the daily routine. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on-site around the clock, supported by an additional nurse on call 24/7, an awake night shift, and staff who have cleared background checks. Emergency pull-cords and personal emergency response systems link residents directly to staff, while the property maintains guarded entry for added security. On-site services encompass medication management, podiatry, wellness programming, hospice coordination, physical and occupational therapy, ambulatory and incontinence care, and massage therapy. Assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting is available for those who need some physical help, and staff can provide standby or supervised transfers for residents who use walkers or wheelchairs.
Apartments are offered in several layouts; some include private bathrooms, kitchenettes, individual climate controls, and cable service, and residents may paint or decorate their spaces to suit personal tastes. Not all accommodations feature every listed amenity, so it is useful to confirm specific details during a tour. Independent Living residents benefit from medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, scheduled laundry service, and a monthly meal plan, ensuring basic support while still encouraging autonomy.
Dining options accommodate varied preferences and clinical requirements. Three daily meals are served restaurant-style from a set menu, with an on-order alternative for residents who want additional flexibility. Therapeutic diets—such as diabetic, heart-healthy, or textured modifications—are prepared under the supervision of dietary staff and nursing oversight, aligning with the community’s comprehensive medical care.
Residents have access to convenient on-site features such as reserved parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty salon, an exercise room, a movie theater, a wellness center, internet access, and landscaped communal gardens. Outdoor smoking areas are designated, and pets are welcome; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
