March 2023

What a magnificent staff and living facility!! Been trying to get our Mom to move out from Florida to Cali for 7 years, since Dad passed. She finally decided to come, but wanted her own space, rather than living with us as we all desired. She's a little high maintenance and bougie--Dad's fault. So, it was very important that the 6 siblings and Mom-Grandma-GGMa could agree on a nice place that she could call home, close by us, but that had the internal support, amenities, security and surroundings she needed. We discovered all of this and more in the Holiday Hampshire by Atria in Merced! Once Mom sealed the deal, We will never forget--She walked in the door of her apartment, looked around in awe, and with a smile said “Wow, I’m Home! I’m Home”. And she’s been loving her new home ever since! Everything included, food, housekeeping, activities, utilities, WIFI, so safe an secure-and the staff is top notch in every area--makes it awesome! Best decision possible for Mom!
