Brookdale

This is a very nice place. We could see mom living here but the cost is more than we can afford plus it is farther out than we think family will travel.

Very good at finding out the need requirements just not a fit for mom.

I love how this facility has been so quiet, peaceful, and nice. Since we’ve moved my Grandma in, everything has been good and I don’t have any complaints. The staff members are respectful, attentive, and courteous. They communicate with us very well and they always seem to be upfront and open. In the beginning, there was a small confusion in her care. She went in to have a procedure and needed a little extra care when she got back to the facility. Unfortunately, there was about a week and a half of a lag to actually get her extra care started. It was a small miscommunication problem but since then it has been taken care of. The food is really good and my Grandma likes it. She is actually a really good cook and for her to compliment the food means a lot. I would recommend this community to other families.

This community is about 2 blocks from us so we can visit often. The staff is very helpful and friendly. It is well kept up. They clean his apartment 1x a week. The dining room is very nice there is a great cook and the food is good. There is lots of variety or you can order from a menu. They are very accommodating in that area. It is a very pleasant atmosphere. We are overall satisfied and would recommend this to my friends.

I took a very nice tour here a while ago when looking for a place for my client. We enjoyed it, it was our first choice but it was a bit too far. The facility looked clean and we were able to talk with one of the other residents that lived there. It seemed like a nice place. The cleanliness, the organization of the facility, and the people that worked there were really the things that stood out to me the most. It’s a place worth looking at for sure.

Sales manager [Removed] really pays attention to what the persons needs are and what will work for them. She is a true professional.

The staff and residents were fantastic. We decided the cost was a little more than we can afford so are looking at apartments without meal plans.

We ultimately chose this community because it was close to me like walking distance. And then there was [Removed] she was really great, she went to go visit him when he was in rehab she worked with us really well. People are very nice the housekeeping could be better. The dining room is very nice but very full. They say family can eat there but there is no where to set. Dad really likes his room. The staff is helpful and caring. The medical staff is taking good care of dad. They will try to engage him to join the daily activities. They have a bench out front and a bird bath and a garden in the back. I would recommend this community.

The only reason why I didn’t chose this facility is because the location was not near my Mother’s doctor. Even though I didn’t pick this facility, I was still rooting for them. The woman who gave me the tour actually worked at this location and another sister location. She was telling me about all of the employees who have been here for 10 to 20 years and I was impressed. Brookdale must be a great employer if they are keeping their employees around for 20 years. I like that because it means that the employees actually want to be there and they will take great care of the residents. I would recommend this community.

We have received help while looking for a place for my loved one. A Place for Mom has really been a great starting point in assisting us to find a community. Out of their recommendations this location is the best fit for my mother. It’s convenient because she is near a few relatives that could visit her frequently. The facility was very clean and it seemed that the residents were well maintained, especially the patients that in pretty bad shape. It also didn’t have a bad smell in the air. Many people that are there have a really serious case of dementia, but everyone seems to be well cared for. In the short amount of time that my loved one has been here, everything has been going well.

When I toured this community it was a nice new building. The staff was friendly and they answered all of my questions. It was just so big just wasn't a good fit for my mom. They had education classes for the family about dementia which is nice.

I toured here when looking for a place for my sister and I liked it. It’s close to home and I was leaning towards it initially but after doing the tour with my sister, it appeared that they weren’t quite ready for operation. It was a superficial walk through of things. The facility was homey. The first time I toured it alone was right after the big storm and they were flooded, they were remodeling it and fixing it all up. The rooms were nice and everything was new because they had redone everything but my sister just didn’t seem to like it and we decided on a different facility because they didn’t seem to be ready to start caring for people.

My Mother-in-law is here. The place is clean and they’re very timely with meals. They don’t have a set breakfast and they’ll serve whatever the residents want. It’s served until 9am but even if you show up late, like 5 minutes to 9, they’ll still serve you. She really likes the idea of being served at dinner with a waiter so this works well for her and it is really nice. There was a place that she was at before here and it took almost 2 hours just to get the food. The residents are allowed to update their apartments and she got a gem of an apartment because the residents before her had updated everything. My only complaint is that the maintenance man is very nice but I think he might have some personal problems going on. He took something off of her door because it had broken, 3 weeks ago, and said he would come back and fix it but he never came back. Housekeeping comes by every 2 weeks to clean the apartment but my Mother-in-law has to wash her own sheets and things like that. She’s been able to plan it out, though, so that when housekeeping comes by, they’ll make the bed for her. There are guard rails along the hallways and in the bathroom for added safety. It’s really a pleasant place. The hallway that she’s in has an outside door that has a keypad where you have to put in a code to get in, so it’s secure. They have some extra TLC it seems with the staff – the waiters will run over and get peoples’ walkers without even being asked whenever meals are finished. Everyone knows the residents’ names and that’s really nice.

This facility is very nice and well maintained. They do the best that they can with what they have. All of the staff members seem to care a lot about my Father. The reason why I chose this community over others is that they have a memory care unit while other places don't. The only negative feedback I have about this facility is that I wish they would communicate with me better on my dad’s health. I would recommend this facility.

I toured here when looking for a place for my friend and just from what I saw, they were impressive. It was hard to make a decision but once I realized they didn’t have a skilled care level, we decided to go with a different community. I didn’t want to have to put my friend through another move because of how disruptive it can be. Things seemed to be gauged for each person and their needs and there were activities 7 days a week. There were plenty of people to help with all of those things. The staff and the communication were really good and they interacted with the other residents very well.

Beautiful facility providing so many amenities. Fabulous place to spend your golden years. Sales Manager, [Removed] goes out of her way to exceed resident expectations in every facet. I attend events there regularly and would recommend it to anyone looking to make the transition from home to assisted living. You will wonder why you didn't do it sooner.

Generally, I feel that Brookdale is very good. My loved one needs just about every kind of care, and they are able to Accommodate her needs. The staff is very helpful there, and if you get there early, the meals are pretty good. If you get there too late, things are cold. I do wish they had more activities for the residents. Other places I looked at had much more going on, and I'd like to see more exciting, mentally stimulating things rather than just bingo or little things like that. Overall though, Brookdale has been treating my loved well.

Staff is courteous, eager to please and friendly.

Beckett Meadows has been helpful, responsive, and caring for my 90 yr old mother with memory issues. However the memory care unit does not have skilled nursing care, and that is what she needs now.

My mom just stayed here for respite care for about 30 days. I was an Ok stay just in the first week her toilet seat was broken and we put in several request to get it fixed I almost thought I was going to have to go buy a new seat and replace it for her. The staff was nice and attentive. The food was good here. They had lots of daily activities like sewing and crafts they had bible study. I would recommend this community.
