Truewood by Merrill, First Hill offers assisted living, independent living, memory care, and respite care in Seattle, WA. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks while the resident keeps an apartment. Independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care, while memory care offers a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. Respite care is a short stay for a family caregiver who needs to travel or recover.
The community has 75 beds. Housing includes private apartments, semi-private apartments, studios, and one-bedroom apartments. If a resident’s needs change, they may be able to move between care levels without leaving the community, and the shared option gives someone the choice of having a companion rather than living alone. Medicaid is accepted, giving families another payment option when savings may not cover a long stay.
A Walk Score of 99 places the area in the walker’s paradise band, so daily errands do not require a car. Shops, pharmacies, and cafes can be within a short walk, allowing a resident who no longer drives to get out independently. Pets are allowed. The range of care types may make Truewood by Merrill, First Hill a good fit for someone whose support needs may grow over time or whose family caregiver needs temporary relief.
