Community Reviews
Not impressed
reviewed on: 11/05/2015 by AnonymousI toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. I saw quite a few options in the area and I just was not impressed with what I saw at Brookdale Gainesville. The general presentation was not up to par with similarly priced places I saw. The carpets looked like they hadn't been cleaned in quite a while, and there was a noticeable odor.
What a difference!
reviewed on: 04/25/2017 by AnonymousI am so glad we found A Place For Mom and they lead us to Brookdale Gainesville Southwest. I wish we found them sooner! My mother looks so happy and healthy now. I like that Brookdale offers a quiet environment where residents can explore. They are really careful and all the doors are locked with keypad entry. My mother is very safe here and she can get up and move around to different places. There is plenty staff and they make sure to watch all the residents. I now have peace of mind.
Brookdale Was A Good Option for My Loved Ones
reviewed on: 12/14/2020 by AnonymousBrookdale Gainesville is an affordable option for your elderly loved one for their care. The services are middle of the road. My loved one had adequate space for them during their stay. The food was ok, it wasn't terrible. It is what I expected, my loved one was able to pick items off the menu that they enjoyed.
mom is happy
reviewed on: 08/13/2015 by AnonymousMy mother has only been at Brookdale Gainesville Southwest for a little over a month, but so far she is very happy. The people are very friendly, and all the staff has been very good to her, and they are always very pleasant to me when I come in there. So far we are very satisfied.
Better assisted living
reviewed on: 06/04/2014 by AnonymousThe most important thing is that they are not a skilled nursing facility, so if the patient has diabetes or another condition, they really – I met with them up front and told them my loved one was diabetic – they said they could take care of it – but they aren’t licensed to check blood sugar and make decisions about medication. I moved my loved one.
