Review of Emeritus at Alhambra Assisted Living in Alhambra, CA
reviewed on: 09/27/2014 by AnonymousThis facility was organized with a friendly staff and the patients there seem happy and content. The rooms appeared to be clean and modern but the hallway carpet could use a replacement. The general manager Nestor was patient and informative, seemingly a caring man. I would consider this home but must check out others also.
Too Corporate
reviewed on: 03/22/2021 by anonymousI think you should consider looking around some more before deciding on Brookdale Alhambra. We had problems with billing. We were promised a certain amount for rent each month when we moved in, and invoicing has not been accurate. Food was an issue - it wasn't really geared toward the needs of the residents. Rates are raised significantly every year. The executive director has been working with us to address our concerns, and she's been helpful . But the main office has been giving us grief.
Model Studio was larger than I expect...

Clean, Modern Community with Chinese Speaking Care Staff and Residents
reviewed on: 08/17/2021 by M ChanThe community is well staffed, clean, there are a lot of Chinese speaking residents and care staff and meals. The billing is a nightmare due to broken communication from the community to their corporate office. This seems to make it more of a nightmare for the families as well. There is limited parking; however, the community is willing to work with you during the move in process.
No Memory care
reviewed on: 09/19/2017 by AnonymousThis is a very nice community with lots of amenities for their residents. The staff did a great job with our tour and they answered all our questions. Unfortunately, they are not licensed for memory care. I would recommend taking a tour here though.
