Trinity Assisted Living in Meridian, Idaho, sits on a quiet street at 1353 W 1st St, where the grounds have mature trees, a flagstone patio, a locked gate for safety, and plenty of room for wheelchair maneuvering, and you'll often find the place feels much less like a big facility and much more like a home, because residents gather in the common area or the large kitchen and dining room, sharing meals and stories with neighbors and friendly, long-time staff. The residential care home has mini suites, private rooms, and companion rooms, and rooms include kitchens or kitchenettes, telephones, cable TV, and laundry facilities, and the place welcomes residents to bring their own favorite furnishings to help make it feel like home. Meals-three per day with three snacks-are home-cooked, and the staff helps with daily needs like bathing, dressing, washing up, toileting, medication help, wound care, and even things like laundry and cleaning, and those needing extra help-whether with dementia, physical disabilities, managed mental illness, or developmental delays-get support from staff trained for those specific care needs.
The staff works with doctors and health care providers for coordination, offers medication management, assists with transfers, and keeps a 24-hour call system running, so assistance is always close by. Social life stays busy with activities like movie nights, baking, card-making, barbecues, walking paths, and garden visits, and there are daily programs on site for arts, crafts, education, health, and fitness, and memory care residents get individual plans and special support for Alzheimer's or dementia. Residents can arrange transportation for shopping or medical visits, and hospice services come in when needed. Housekeeping and laundry services are included, and there are amenities like guest parking, wifi, safety features, washer and dryer access, a salon/barbershop, a fitness center, and maintenance, and the grounds offer quiet places to relax or visit with family. The community isn't locked down throughout, but there's a secured 16-bed unit with a code for those who need extra safety. Residents can come and go but there's secure access, and people say the staff treat everyone like family, keeping the setting warm, supportive, and helpful through changes in health and independence.
People mention positive care and medical services in their reviews, and the facility keeps a low turnover with most residents able to stay through end of life, supported by individualized care plans and an open-door policy that welcomes family visits and close connections between caregivers and residents. Trinity Assisted Living runs as a Level I, II, and III facility with caring, professional staff on hand night and day, and the place stays focused on dignity, privacy, and helping each person feel at ease-especially during moves or new changes-so folks can maintain as much independence as they're able for as long as they live there. Tours or virtual visits can be arranged, and the community offers both assisted living and memory care, with a special focus on social, emotional, and health needs to help each resident feel at home in a safe and welcoming space.
