Community Reviews
My Grandson is going to perform
reviewed on: 07/27/2017 by AnonymousI really love living here I lived in another Brookdale Community and this is by far a better choice. First it's very close to my daughter which is important too me. There is a beauty salon in the building but my daughter takes me out to get my hair done. There is so much to do I've played bingo and cards but I didn't care too much for that. However in the 2 months that I've been here I've read at least 2 shelves of books in the library. The food is wonderful here but one thing I don't like is that the waiting staff does not clean off the tables after the first shift is done I do it myself. Other than that the staff is wonderful very helpful and the housekeeping through out the place is very good.
They Seem Understaffed
reviewed on: 10/16/2013 by DaughterIt seems like they're short staffed. That's the main issue my mom has. It takes a while for her to get a response when she presses her pendant. You can wait 8-10 minutes for someone to show up. The care services appear to be okay. The other problem is the bathroom - the shower is a bathtub. It's not large enough. Those seem like small things but they really make a difference. It seem like they have enough activities but she doesn't have a lot of interaction with a lot of people so she's not really motivated to go. They have bingo - I think she's gone once. It's seem like if they had more caregivers or if the pendant worked better. she liked her room she like the accommodations except for the shower situation. it's not very wide. I think she likes the community.
It was pretty good in the assisted living.
reviewed on: 02/17/2015 by Family MemberMy parents lived here for a while. It was pretty good in the assisted living. Once it came time for memory care, I wasn't sure. They did a good job with the assisted living. They had some issues, there was a lot of change over in staff. They went through three directors in two years. I felt that we were ready for something that offered more experience with memory care.
They have done a pretty good job.
reviewed on: 10/14/2014 by AnonymousThey have done a pretty good job. We have used them for a respite stay a few times now. The thing is that the last time I brought him home, he hadn't had a shower, if he says no then, they can't do it. I don't know if that would be different if he was a resident, but I didn't realize that. The staff there is awesome to him. They do a lot of celebration stuff, they are very excited for Halloween, and they have lots of plans. They do seem to be very focused on the residents there. They will do a week stay not just a two week minimum, which is hard to find, and the price is fair. It's pretty clean. However every time we go in, the T.V. isn't hooked up, and they knew he was coming. But they do call for someone right away, but it's very important to my loved one, and I communicated that to them. I have recommended it, and would recommend it again.

reviewed on: 08/29/2013 by A Place For Mom CustomerFriendly, professional, knowledgeable staff; Stacie was a delight; She shared a lot of time with me answering questions. Facility clean, spacious, open; a good variety of activities to choose from; Facility close to community shopping. Could benefit from shade trees, to cool the walks around the building down; but today was extremely hot in Riverside!
