Brookdale

Dad was a little picky and our timing was affected by a pending sale of his home, but from the first moment we walked into Brookdale College Parkway, it was clear this would be the place. [Name removed] asked all the right questions, ones he had not heard at several other places we visited. And besides that, she was an exceptional listener. Interaction with both staff and residents was positive and consistent with regard to their experiences. So happy dad found his ideal place for his next stage of life.

They are very thoughtful, professional, kind and thorough. The residents are happy. My brother loves it there. He is content and is making many new friends. He feels valued there. There are no bad smells in the hallway like we experienced in another place.

Our experience with Brookdale Midwestern was only a 2 week stay while we were on vacation, and it was a year and a half ago, but she was well cared for while she was there.

The staff are very friendly. They know most, if not all, the residence by name. The staff are considerate of the residence. The facility is clean and has character. The building is not new by any means but it is established. The apartments are clean and comfortable.

I cannot recommend Brookdale Emerald Hills highly enough! The care provided to residents is outstanding. The staff members are compassionate and truly care about the well-being of the residents. The director and nurses go above and beyond to ensure that each resident feels valued, respected, and well taken care of. The dining experience at Brookdale is second to none. The chefs are talented and the dining staff provide excellent service with a smile. My dad often raved about the quality of the soups and pizza, and how nice the dining staff was at honoring his requests. Entertainment and activities are plentiful. My dad enjoyed the Jeopardy games multiple times per week. Happy Hour and Bible studies were a highlight of his week. Overall, our experience with our Dad living here was wonderful. He lived his final 2 years there and our family is so thankful for the care he received. If you're looking for an assisted living facility that feels like home, look no further than this place.

My loved one is currently a resident at Brookdale Charlotte East. My loved one could no longer care for himself and at Brookdale Charlotte East he is safe and has the care that he needs. He has made friends and they have their own table in the dinning room. He loves the outings that he can go on, especially out to eat and shop. When I was looking for a place for him we visited Brookdale and my husband turned to me and said "I can see him here". We looked at many places.

My loved one was previously a resident at Brookdale Lake View and the overall experience was great for her at this facility. The friendliness and the staff are great. The cleanliness, care services and value for cost are good. The meals and the activities are both great, also! Based on our experience, I would recommend Brookdale Lake View to others.

I think the staff and facility are good. The nursing staff are awesome. I really like this facility. I would definitely recommend them.

I've been here for 8 years at Brookdale. I love it and I love living near my son. I particularly love the staff and the residents. We have lots of activities which I really appreciate, it makes for a very nice time. Lots of different acts and performers as well as movies and other activities.

I have visited Mount Vernon Drive several times and the community is friendly and home like. The activities are wonderful and they do gardening in the courtyard. I would place my family at Mount Vernon Drive without hesitation.

My dad seems to be ok there. Yes, would recommend.

They could improve their food selection and preparation. Understandably it's hard to cook for a crowd, but improvements could be made to make the food more pleasant to eat. A few of the rank and file staff are perhaps not as friendly or caring as you'd hope, but overall everyone is great and it's a nice place to be and people are helpful.

The above scoring is based on reasonable expectation relative to cost and comparison to five other facilities within the local area. For our particular circumstances Brookdale Senior Living was and is a perfect fit. Our dad loves the food and the attention he receives when needed. The services are just enough to keep him comfortable without being too disruptive and he is provided with plenty of opportunity to be involved with others if he chooses. Additionally, "A Place For Mom" was instrumental to our search for a place for our dad. We would never had found Brookdale if not for the insight and contacts provided by "A place For Mom". Their staff asked all of the right questions. This combined with their experience, contacts and knowledge of the area allowed the staff to direct us to the perfect place for dad.

Brookdale, Port Orange gave my aunt superb care during the last five years of her life. We got to know the staff personally and felt like they were part of our family. Facility is very clean and modern.

From the first visit through to the day I, unfortunately, had to move my husband out, the people at Solana Vintage Park have been amazingly helpful and friendly. During the tour and throughout the move-in process, I was provided with information about Solana and Brookdale that proved to be very helpful. Everyone from the director to the receptionist to the medical staff to the caregiving staff were all friendly and available to assist any time. I especially appreciated the Caregiver Support Group and the director of the Clare Bridge memory care unit explaining various aspects of dealing with dementia. The lovely surroundings, outdoor patio, activities, outings, live entertainment, and caring staff provided a wonderful quality of life for my husband. Unfortunately, he eventually needed a level of care they do not provide and we had to find another facility. Once again, the staff at Solana were helpful and quick to respond when I had questions about our move.

Brookdale Carmel provides a caring environment for loved ones in need of Memory Care. Management and nursing staff are committed to tailoring support to the unique needs of individual residents. The facility offers a clean and safe environment. Food quality is definitely above industry standards.

My dad had a heart attack and my parents were not able to go back to their home of 65 years. I needed a place immediately for my mom to begin to reside. Veronica at Brookdale was instrumental at securing a room for my mom on the much needed ground floor. The entire staff at Brookdale have been excellent at welcoming my mom and helping her feel comfortable and settle in under such a difficult family situation. Everyone calls her by her first name each and every time, and daily we are greeted with smiles, cleanliness, and a continuing willingness to help our family. Thank you Brookdale!!

The people at Brookdale have been supportive, careing, willing to work with us and knowledgeable. Every step of the way they helped us through the changes and sorrows. There staff including the outside doctors have been top notch and very willing to go the extra mile. Can not say enough good things about them.

Impressed care of my parents. Staff members are very friendly and the environment is very clean.

It was so comfy and warm and inviting, It sure makes you feel like you're at home! The staff was so kind, warm, and helpful.
