  • My review of Brookdale Dover

    Our family had an in person tour and it was horrible. The lady who gave our tour called us a few days later asking how everything when and we were brutally honest in saying it was horrible. The people were not friendly, it was not welcoming, it was very dark and fifthly. On the memory care unit they were eating lunch at the time, and it was something you have seen in a movie. The residents were sitting there in their wheel chairs with their heads tilted and the staff were off no the opposite side of the room socializing. No one was there helping them, it was not stimulating which was very upsetting to see.

  • This facility was a disgrace. It was dirty, the staff was not very friendly. The residents were not engaged and the aides were standing around not interacting. It was a very dark, cold place.
