Truewood by Merrill, Glen Riddle is a "just Right" personal care facility. My Mom has been a resident for 2 years and counting. Located on the rolling hills of Samuel Riddle's estate, Truewood is a warm and active community. Truewood has a full, daily activity calendar and added activities/events by volunteers that have caught the attentions of the local magazine and TV news. Close to Baltimore Pike (Rt 1) and Pennell Road (Rt 452), Truewood is easily accessible and only a short distance to Granite Run and Media area shopping and entertainment. Pictured is the Veterans' Wall and magazine articles in the library. Truewood is Simply Yours and truly extraordinary.

My grandmother came to Truewood after it was determined she could no longer live on her own. When I first came to tour, the staff at Truewood were so kind to me as soon as I arrived and I decided it seemed like a good fit. My grandmother spent over two years at Truewood and I can confidently say that she absolutely loved living there. She loved going to the dining hall and sitting with her friends and she adored the staff who were all so warm. They treated her like family. The people who work there really care which made me feel a lot better about her being under someone else’s care. They were always communicative about her needs and never left me in the dark. I am very grateful for the staff who took care of my grandma and always will be.
