Merrill Gardens at Tacoma sits in the West End neighborhood at 7290 Rosemount Cir, a 65-bed, three-story building with studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts. It covers three levels of care under one roof: assisted living, independent living, and memory care.
Walkability is a real strength here; the Walk Score hits 80, very walkable, which means most errands don’t require a car at all. Pets are welcome too, so a move here doesn’t mean giving up a dog or cat.
Day to day, staffing runs 24 hours, with respite care available and a resident call system in place for safety. Transportation services and fitness and recreation options handle the logistics and activity side without leaning entirely on family. Robert Brock is the listed contact for the community.
The amenities aim for comfort over flash: a game room, a library, salon services, and garage parking. Pricing starts at $3,700 a month for assisted living, and Medicaid is accepted, which opens up coverage options that not every community offers.
On the inspection side, state reviews here have tended to center on staffing and staff credentials, a theme that shows up across assisted living facilities broadly and isn’t specific to this one.
Put together, this is a walkable, pet-friendly community with three care levels, Medicaid acceptance, and a comfort-focused amenity list, the kind of combination that works well for families who want flexibility without sacrificing convenience.
