While touring numerous care facilities, one morning I stopped by Brookdale Dementia and Alzheimer’s Care, I immediately felt this was a good place to care for my loved one. Over several years, I have observed Brookdale staff interact with residents; they display such kindness and patience toward all residents that it makes me feel comfortable knowing my brother is being cared for in the same manner. I also appreciate the prompt personal contact when a situation arises and weekly newsletter keeping all loved ones informed. Recently they have started a Memory Care Support Group. It is important to keep our loved ones engaged. A daily agenda lists various types of activities. Most afternoons residents enjoy a light snack followed by music in the game room. Familiar songs are played with lyrics displayed on screen. You would be surprised to hear most everyone singing and swaying along. It is a pleasure to sing with them.

Working with Brookdale Memory Care East has been an exceptional experience. Their team is professional, responsive, and truly invested in creating a successful partnership with our team at Our Ks Guardian HomeHealth and Hospice. Communication has been seamless, expectations clearly set and exceeded, and the results have spoken for themselves. We’ve seen real value from this collaboration and look forward to continued success together. Highly recommend if you’re looking for reliability, innovation, and a team that genuinely cares for their resident's.

After my dad passed away in October, we felt Brookdale was the best place for my mother. The staff truly cares—not just for her, but for all the residents. I really enjoy seeing how they interact with everyone; their kindness is genuine. Just last week, my mom had about five family members visiting. One of the staff members stopped by, noticed the gathering, and came back shortly with ice cream for everyone. It’s those small, thoughtful gestures that make such a meaningful difference.

I just recently moved my mom from Assisted Living to Brookdale memory care. I checked several other locations but all of them seemed like no activities we're going on at all. When I was at Brookdale it was like a party was happening right then and there! Since my mom has moved in her attitude has improved significantly. She is happy and laughing. And so far we have not found her sitting in wet clothing as happened all the time at the assisted living facility. In the past two moves from Independent Living to Assisted Living, my mom would say over and over that she just wanted to go home. That has not been the case with Brookdale. I would strongly recommend Brookdale Memory Care for anyone needing a wonderful place for their loved one. I am certain they will see a great difference in their loved ones attitude and level of care!
