Very good. Feels like a home. Staff and all workers are wonderful and make each person there as family.
From the first day just going through the place, everyone was very kind and made me feel as if i belonged there. We are all at the same step in our lives so we all treat each ither with the sane resorct and welcome. Having to come to a point in our lives that we have to move from our homes to a facility is very difficult for a person who just cannot continue to be in their homes any longer, Merrill Gardens makes us feel so at home.

Our tour
We took a tour of Merrill Gardens at Brentwood during our search for an Assisted Living facility for our loved one. This facility was beautiful! It is an Assisted Living facility, but they were not equipped to handle someone like my loved one who would need full-on care.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the California regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about California regulations for Assisted Living.

Frequently Asked Questions
about Merrill Gardens at Brentwood

Merrill Gardens at Brentwood offers Studio, 1 Bedroom and 2 Bedrooms. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Merrill Gardens at Brentwood 8.5 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
