About Mercer Terrace

from Oasis Senior Advisors

Mercer Terrace offers assisted-living as its primary level of care, giving residents help with daily activities while encouraging as much independence as possible. Short-term respite stays are an option for families who need temporary support, and specialized diabetes management and mental-wellness programs are available for those who require them. Residents have access to on-site doctors, prescription oversight through structured medication management, and coordinated hospice services when needed.

Clinical resources are reinforced by 12- to 16-hour nursing coverage, licensed nurses, and regular visits from podiatrists, physical and occupational therapists, and dentists. Incontinence management, ambulatory assistance, and a secure memory-care area are part of the support network. Safety features include an emergency call system in each apartment and a community-wide sprinkler system. An enclosed courtyard adds an extra layer of security for residents who benefit from a controlled outdoor setting.

Apartments range from studios to one-bedroom layouts, and a select number accommodate overnight guests when space permits. Features such as wheelchair-accessible showers, kitchenettes, wall-to-wall carpet, washers and dryers, window treatments, generous closets, cable or satellite TV, phone lines, Wi-Fi, and central air conditioning are available in various combinations, though not every unit includes every feature. Outdoor areas, a butterfly garden, multiple lounges, parking for residents, and a library with computers add to the living options. Cats are allowed, and the community is generally pet friendly, but restrictions may apply.

Dining focuses on balanced nutrition and flexibility. Three daily meals are included, and an all-day dining option allows residents to eat on their own schedule. Healthy snacks, vegetarian choices, and menus that can be prepared organic, low- or no-sodium, or no-sugar are offered. Guests can purchase meals when visiting, and clinical staff coordinate with the kitchen to align meal plans with individual health needs.

Residents can take part in a full calendar of programs that includes fitness classes, health and wellness workshops, bingo, karaoke, arts and crafts, clubs, community outings, birthday parties, happy hours, dances, and live-music events. An activity center, dedicated arts-and-crafts space, swimming pool, activity room, and outdoor walking paths support these events. The goal is to provide consistent social engagement and physical activity to complement each resident’s care plan.

#4 in Rowlett, TX

Residents and their families say:

This community has received a mix of feedback from residents and their families, highlighting both positives and areas for improvement. Many praised the friendly and caring staff, noting the compassionate and empathetic approach taken by the executive team and care partners. The community is appreciated for feeling like home, emphasized by residents who enjoy the welcoming atmosphere and the security of a smaller, more personable environment. The staff's dedication to making residents feel included and engaged through activities and participation is frequently mentioned as a strong point. Additionally, the location often comes up as a deciding factor for families, placing importance on the proximity to loved ones.

However, there are recurring concerns about the quality and variety of the food offered, suggesting an area for enhancement in meeting resident expectations. Another common problem mentioned includes the price point, which some found too high for their budget despite liking the facility. The physical condition of the building and its need for updates were also points of critique, with several noting it as rundown or in need of maintenance. There have been inconsistencies in medication management and some administrative issues noted, such as communication difficulties and concerns with the handling of leaving procedures. Despite these negatives, the tight-knit community and the staff's warm, helpful nature seem to offer a significant positive experience for many residents and their families.
