Brookdale

My mom was living with me, I am her only surviving child. Although mom is still quite self-sufficient, she was bored at home as I am at work all day. She can be a little forgetful at times too. We explored this community living option once before but she wasn’t ready, but now she finally was. Mom moved to Brookdale 3 months ago now, and the first 90 days, I’m told are the hardest and they have been incredible. Mom is happy, mom is socializing, making friends, and going to their daily programs. I’ve seen a positive change in my mother in the past few months. I wish she would’ve made the decision to come sooner so she could have benefited sooner, but at least now she has the life and interaction she deserves to feel purposeful and a part of! Separate from that, I have to tell you, my mom and I have yet to meet someone we didn’t like. The management and staff are genuine and loving.

I visited 5 communities in the area for my mom before deciding on Brookdale Wayne. I chose Wayne because there is a true sense of warmth and compassion with every person I met. My mom wasn’t local, this was a big move and had a lot of moving parts but the Executive Director made me feel incredibly comfortable. She took the time to explain things, she was taking my calls at all hours, and helped make my mom’s transition flawless. The other places I visited were nice. Some newer, some much older, but I needed to feel safe knowing my mom was in the best hands and she is the only one that made me feel that way. My mom has been at Brookdale for a short while now, and she is flourishing. She finally has friends and is socializing, but best of all, she has the care she needs and I don’t have to worry. The nursing director is very responsive and the ladies helping with care are lovely. I’d strongly recommend considering this community for your loved one. We are both (mom and I) very happy.

Great job staff was great food was good nice environment. Good time visiting my spouse’s grandparents .

Everyone at Brookdale has made this hard life decision much easier. The level of expertise in all aspects made this transition more bearable. They have a genuine concern for the care of our loved ones. We truly feel this is our parents new Home Sweet Home!!

My grandmother was at a plethora of homes and when she found brookdale, she felt at home. Why? The staff goes above and beyond, even going so far to bring my grandma to our home using their private shuttle on Christmas in the rain and stayed with her during our Christmas meal. I’ve never been happier with the care here and the staff make it a place she can call home.

[name removed] and the entire staff have been friendly and very helpful. They have been outstanding meeting our needs, and truly exceeded our expectations. Thank you Bookdale in Lake Highlands. We will surely recommend this community to anyone looking at assisted living.

We have been very happy with the way they have loved on my sister in law and loved on my family. We look forward to coming and joining everyone here at the community. I recommend looking in to this community.

This is the best place we could find for my sister. They are so good to her. We are happy to be here and be part of the family. We reccamend this place to anyone looking for a home for their loved.

My dad has been at Brookedale Mansfield for over a year. He has Dementia, and requires quite a lot of assistance. The staff has been wonderful to him and us. They liove him and he is happy and well cared for. We knew this was the place for him on our first visit.

Brookdale Mansfield is not at all what I expected, I was pleasantly surprised at how much the workers and managers interact with the residents! They all know them and their needs! The chef came out and offered us cookies Sales woman was so informative, she helped us so much with everything we had on our plate at the time, I like that is small and just sweet place, my mom had two in mind and were so glad she chose the one in Mansfield!

Great place. Staff is very caring.

I have been a resident here for 3 months. I have found the employees to be very helpful and they have all treated me with kindness and respect. The food is good, the activities are enjoyable, the staff is great!

For the care services, meals and dining as well as activities, we are out of state and unable to get a feel 4for what goes on on a daily basis. We have not had any negative remarks from those who visit. We would recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had so far.

I've lived at Brookdale Allenmore for 4.5 years in independent living, and 3 years in Brookdale assisted living. Since I moved to independent living my experience has been 98% positive. I found staff and management to be highly professional, approachable, and comforting to deal with. The measures used to maintain a safe & healthy environment are successful. Here I feel this is truly my forever home. I'm a retired LPN/Human Services and I worked in other communities such as this one and I don't believe there is a better community. I even had my mother with me at Brookdale assisted living. The staff's opinion of their peers here is overwhelmingly positive.

My parents lived their final years at Brookdale Montrose and liked it very much. Now, my brother is there. Diagnosed with Alzheimers, he’s in the memory care unit. They have all sorts of programs including exercise, movies, live music, and field trips to keep people with memory issues engaged and interested. Food is quite good. It really is a fine place.

Brookdale Spruce Wood community gets a 5 in all categories, they have exceeded all expectation's our family has had. We would recommend them to other families who may be looking for a place for their loved ones.

My parents moved into Brookdale Sprucewood in Feb 2022. They quickly made friends, and engage in community activities. Everything they need is provided right where they live!

My loved one is currently a resident at Brookdale Virginia Beach. They are well staffed and overall, the facility has a positive energy. The staff are friendly and seem happy working there. The staff has great communication with the family and return calls, emails and texts in a timely manner. We also receive emails about family nights and upcoming monthly and holiday activities at the facility. The place is clean and even the maintenance person was very helpful in getting our loved one's TV set up. We are so grateful to have found Brookdale Virginia Beach. This place has exceeded our expectations!

My mother in law loves the people there, both the residents and employees. This is closest to us do we get to see her almost every day.
