Brookdale

Safe, plenty of activities. Respect equally between residents and employees.

My tour experience with each Brookdale facility was wonderful. The staff were professional, focused and great educators. There was no dumb questions that I could have asked. They made me feel comfortable from the get go. This Brookdale facility was larger and offered different levels of care and had access to many more amenities than the smaller facility. I would not hesitate to recommend any of the Brookdale facilities.

My tour experience with each Brookdale facility was wonderful. The staff were professional, focused and well educated. There was no dumb questions that I could have asked. They made me feel comfortable from the get go. This Brookdale facility was larger and offered different levels of care and had access to many more amenities than the smaller facility.

We went with Brookdale Weddington Park because of the location and the smaller size of the facility. There are only 83 beds so the care is more personalized. They do have a lovely activities director, but since it is smaller there is less amenities offered than some of the larger places. I found the marketing staff at each Brookdale facility that we toured to be very well focused and professional with how they approached the situation. They made me feel like my needs were important too and that is something that I was not expecting. They were all educated and there was no dumb question. It is all about matching your loved ones needs and wants to the population. I would definitely recommend them to others looking.

Recently my husband and I had a tour of this community. We were very impressed with maintenance, personnel, and friendly atmosphere. [name removed] was our guide, she made us feel right at home. She had answers for all our questions

I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. The location is beautiful. The grounds are kept nice. They have three tiered care available, so your loved one can move as independent living and progress with care in the community. We really liked this about the community. The options of meals could be healthier and more seasonings could be used. The cottage comes with a full kitchen and a washer and dryer in the unit. They have added all new appliances prior to my loved ones moving in to the cottages and they were accommodating with theses changes.

Our family has been really pleased with Brookdale Apache it has been a really good experience. Our mother in law is making new friends, the meals that are served are pretty good and they have a lot of different activities for the residents to participate in. It is a really nice place, the staff keep is super clean. One of the reason we chose Brookdale was because of the price, it is really reasonable. Based on the experience so far we would recommend them to other families.

This is best dementia care place I have seen. The resident numbers are low, and the staff to residents ratio is really good. The staff are very friendly and care about the residents well. They know all the residents by name. The staff are responsive to questions or concerns that the family has about our loved one. They try to keep the residents engaged in activities. Some of the activities include gardening, exercises, trivia, games, arts and crafts, and more for the residents to participate in. There are at least two different room options to choose from. Showering, dressing, and medication management are some of the care offered by the community.

The staff are very friendly when I talk to them. There was a time that it took a full month for the community to change the linens for my loved one. The community is very nice. I am very impressed with the daily activities, they will even take the residents for a van ride once a week. I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones.

I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. My loved one and all the residents have their own rooms, which is nice. The staff are very easy to work with if we have any questions or concerns. The care, apartment, utilities (phone and cable is additional), laundry, changing of linens, housekeeping, and all the meals are included in the monthly fee. Exercise, games, social times, and more are some of the activities for the residents to choose from. My loved one seems to enjoy the meals.

It has been a wonderful experience for my loved one and family. I was able to find an environment that suited my loved one needs without it being a nursing home. There was no communities I could find in Alabama and this was the closest. The staff are very good to work with and I have a close relationship with them and the care they provide for my loved one. I like the physician assistant that sees my loved one, and they have become my loved one's primary care provider. The follow up with the provider is very good. They have prevented my loved one from going to the hospital on a couple of occasions. My loved one is at the highest level of care and this is an additional fee each month. The apartment, all the meals, activities, utilities (except for phone and cable), housekeeping, changing of linens, and laundry is included in the monthly fee for rent. There is a kitchenette in the apartment and a large walk-in shower. One thing that sold me on the community was the activities. Church, entertainers, field trips to shopping and more, happy hour, exercises, and more are some activities for the residents to choose from. They have a beautiful courtyard and a screened in porch for the residents to utilize. The community has to allow visitors in, and out with entry system. This community is better than what my loved one anticipated. The food has been good or a little better for my loved one.

We would recommend the Brookdale San Ramon community to other families

The staff members executive director and marketing team have all done such an excellent job and have continued to do so. Our loved one does not always participate in the activities but we do know they have plenty to offer for the residents. Based on the experience we have had so far with Brookdale Lake we would recommend the community to other families.

I was suffering from a very deep, dark depression when I first visited Brookdale Conway; I was living alone - all I had to keep me going were my therapist, one particularly good friend, and my incredibly special Boston terrier. Brookdale Conway was not the last place I visited that day, but it is the last place I remember visiting. The sales manager stayed so positive and upbeat; he assured me that they could become my new family and that my dog would be especially welcomed. I decided to make Brookdale Conway my new home and the people there my new family. I have never regretted the decision. Yes, they clean my room, do my laundry, prepare three great meals every day, provide medical care if needed, and supply plenty for residents to enjoy, both on-campus and through field trips. The big difference is the people. They all genuinely care about me (and my dog). The people of Brookdale Conway have given me new purpose and meaning.

Brookdale Oak Hollow is like no facility of its kind! When our family had to make the difficult decision, we looked no further than this wonderful community! After visiting several facilities, we knew Brookdale was THE place! The staff is outstanding! They truly care and love the residents and their families!!! My sister and I are at peace knowing our parents are receiving exceptional care. This care extends to reading about events to gardening to singing hymns (which our mom adores.) Almost 3 years ago, hospice gave our mom 6 months to live and she is still enjoying living and playing in this community. We thought she would remain in bed, but the first day our mom arrived at Brookdale, the staff had her out of bed participating in activities. Every time we visit our parents, we leave thanking the Lord for the provision of Brookdale. You can't go wrong if you choose Brookdale Oak Hollow. This community is extra special and one of a kind!

We really liked this community and it was really nice but they required a 30 day stay and we just needed a little less than a week and this community was not able to make this work with us.

The community is very nice and the staff are very friendly and attentive. I think that they try to give everyone the best care that they can with what they have. They so many activities and give out a calendar and mail a calendar and their are activities from work outs to, bingo, crafts, memory exercises, church services and more for the residents to participate in and stay active. They also give additional attention when needed.

Our family had an in person tour and it was a really nice tour experience and a top contender

This community has just been wonderful. I have already recommended this community to two family friends. It was a great transition for my mom and the staff are friendly and clean it has just been wonderful for my loved one. The director are great. They have activities like bingo, bridge, outings to go eat and more for the residents to do and stay busy and active. They also frequently test for covid to stay safe in the community.

We would recommended the Brookdale Conway community to other families.
