Truewood by Merrill
Truewood by Merrill provides assisted living and memory care in Cottonwood Heights, UT. Assisted living offers help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident keeps a private apartment, while memory care provides a secured setting with supervision. The memory care setting may be a good fit for someone living with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia who needs that environment.
Housing options include studios, one-bedroom apartments, and two-bedroom apartments, with the two-bedroom option able to suit a couple moving together or someone who wants a companion. Pets are allowed, so residents may bring a pet when moving into the community. A Walk Score of 74 means the area is very walkable, with most errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives can still get out independently.
