I've never seen such leadership and staff dedicated to the safety, comfort, and well-being of Special Care residence. I have never seen a resident lacking attention, grooming needs, or activities. A truly wonderful place to trust your loved the ones with.
We are so grateful and pleased with the high level of competent, loving care that our mom receives from the entire staff at Brookdale. We know that she is well cared for, safe and content. The medical staff has her diabetes under control, something mom has struggled with for 20 years.
I was extremely satisfied with the care my mother received. She consistently had a smile on her face, and her cleanliness was always maintained. They ensured she was eating properly. The staff was incredibly kind, familiar with her name, preferences, and dislikes, which gave me confidence that she was in good hands. I lived close by and visited frequently.
Grateful to some of the caregivers for doing their best in very trying circumstances however management does not have a grasp on the day to day needs and staffing issues and actual care that is being delivered.
I had the pleasure of interacting with Elaine, and I can’t speak highly enough of her. She is incredibly attentive and consistently goes above and beyond to ensure a positive experience. Her sweetness and genuine care make every interaction feel special and personalized. If you’re looking for someone who truly values and understands the needs of others, Elaine is the one to go to. Highly recommended!
