  • Poor Experience

    My father was in Brookdale’s Memory Care facility for 5 months. He fell 4 times, as far as we know, and was admitted to the ER 4 times. He broke his shoulder a few days after entering Brookdale and fell again reinjuring his shoulder 4 days later. He fell and broke his hip and died 12 days later. I feel the lack of care and attention led to my father’s rapid decline and ultimate death. There were a few good employees but the constant staff turnover resulted in inconsistent and poor care. I would not recommend this facility to anyone needing this type care.

  • Nice facility but didn't get the best vibe

    I toured this facility while looking for a place for my Father. It’s a very nice community and the staff members were nice to us. While we were touring the place, I didn’t get the best vibe. They let me know in the beginning that they did not have a bed available. I felt like the marketing director was just going through the motions of the tour because they didn’t have to sell it. She was knowledgeable and answered our questions. I would recommend other families to tour this facility.

  • Mom is very active!!

    I have no complaints of how things are going for my mother since she made the move into this community. She has had some of the best therapy at this place and is becoming more active every single day. She is enjoying her dinning experience and is always saying how amazing the meals are. My mom likes the fact she has lots of varieties on the menu to choose from and fresh salad. Overall it has been the perfect fit and we are very happy.
