"We have promised ourselves that we shall always treat our residents as we would our own loved ones. Nothing less than our best will do."
This is a simple promise that the staff at Emeritus at Merced – and throughout Emeritus Senior Living communities – has shared since our community first opened its doors. It’s a simple promise to be compassionate and kind, understanding and respectful – a promise to become extended family to the seniors entrusted in our care and to our retirees who have chosen our community for its active lifestyle.
Right at Home
Set on beautifully landscaped grounds with an outdoor courtyard, Emeritus at Merced is one of the premier assisted living and Alzheimer’s communities in the Merced area. Located just north of the city, we offer over 80 studios, one and two bedroom apartments on two floors. Here our residents – in many cases, with their pets – enjoy retirement living. Yet should you need a helping hand from our warm and caring staff, we also offer complete assisted living services, tailor-made to your needs. Our services focus on wellness to help you maintain your health, so you can live as independently as possible.
Senior Assisted Living Services and Amenities
We understand that every senior has different needs and desires, we are proud to offer a selection of assisted living services and amenities based on each senior’s needs. Emeritus at Merced offers assisted living to make life easier for all seniors. Whether it is to assist with medications, prepare special meals or the peace of mind to know that someone is available twenty-four hours a day our assisted living services offer flexibility and options. We have a well trained staff that cares about your comfort, care and safety and will strive to not only meet your expectations but exceed them. Don’t feel like cooking or doing laundry, that’s fine- let us take care of it for you!
To ensure we meet all your needs, we have designed our own state-of-the-art computerized resident evaluation program called wE Care.

In addition, our Director of Resident Care will visit with you or your loved one to personally discuss health-related issues and to monitor your progress.
