Overview of Truewood by Merrill, Glen Riddle

Facebook Instagram

Truewood by Merrill, Glen Riddle offers assisted living, independent living, and memory care in Glen Riddle, PA. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident maintains private living space. Independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering.

The combination of these care levels may be a good fit for a resident whose needs could increase over time, because moving between levels can happen within the community. The community has 153 beds, which means more residents, more staff, and usually more programming within the setting. Occupancy is 56%, meaning the community is not filled to its full bed capacity. Pets are allowed, so a resident can bring a pet to the community, and Mg Media Subtenant operates the community.

Inspection History

In Pennsylvania, the Department of Human Services (for assisted living facilities) and the Department of Health (for nursing homes) conduct unannounced inspections to verify adherence to state regulations.

Waivers Info A higher number of waivers may indicate the facility relies on staff who don't fully meet standard credential requirements. A lower number may suggest the facility meets staffing qualification standards without exemptions.

This Facility PA Average vs. PA Avg
  • Waivers are Pennsylvania Department of Health exemptions that let a facility operate outside required staffing ratios or staff credential rules. A higher count can signal that the facility regularly relies on exceptions — for example, fewer nursing hours per resident or staff who don't fully meet qualification standards — which may affect day-to-day care.
