Atria Merrimack Place

Mom recently made a MAJOR cross-country relocation to Atria Merrimack to be closer to her daughters, and had only seen the property in a video tour from the west coast. Upon arriving at Atria, she was immediately delighted by the lovely building and facilities, green spaces & well-tended grounds, and the warm welcome she got by the entire staff as she walked through the door. Mom quickly came to love the dining experience, the kind professionalism of the staff, and was extremely impressed by the very high degree of effort made to please residents throughout each day, with incredible attention to detail. She appreciated the strong priority on safety, including the personalized monitoring of individuals’ needs and preferences. The family appreciated the very, very personalized, patient, compassionate, and extensive support and resources shared by one of the directors - John Pezzella - to make Mom’s complicated cross-country move much smoother than it would have been otherwise! Thank you, John!!!!! Mom was impressed by the high priority placed on strong and speedy communication among the branches of the management team. Mom found the group activities to be extremely appealing and varied, and to be inclusive and encouraging of all residents regardless of abilities or backgrounds. She loved how activities appeal to a wide range of interests - cultural, artistic, culinary, historical, fitness, and spiritual well-being - and how they help residents develop friendships too. She feels the Atria culture encourages people to be kind and compassionate to each other. She loves how the resident council allows for input from the residents in matters that affect them. Atria is an exceptional and compassionate place to live for my mom. We are so grateful to Atria for all they have done to assist with a complicated relocation with so many moving pieces! I could never have dreamed such a perfect place for Mom could have existed!

Both of my parents have lived at Atria Place and my entire family is so grateful to the joy and peace it has brought to their lives. Most recently my mom moved in, having lived independently until her 92nd year. So giving up her independence was a big deal. However, the welcome and first class care she has received at Atria in her first weeks has been extraordinary. She so appreciates the caring and professional staff, the extra support she has received as she is recovering from a break, and she loves the delicious meals. The quality collaborative staff have created a loving positive "can do" atmosphere that extends to the residents who are equally as positive, warm and enthusiastic. My mother has been welcomed as if she just arrived at a new college dorm - which is what Atria seems like to the next generation wondering what is in store for us..... Atria makes it seem like it could even be fun!

Everyone here at Atria has been so very nice. They go above and beyond for our mom. They remember your name and things you like... The place really is like it seems coming in if not more so. We have gone around and asked everyone staying here how long they have been here, and everyone from months to years say how much they like it still. That speaks volumes! If you have to leave home, this is the place to be!! Smiling faces & a warm hello are everywhere here. Thankyou 🙂

I feel lucky to have found Atria Merrimack Place for my mom. I can rest at night knowing she is well cared for and safe. It has given me peace of mind and the helping hand I needed to care for her.
