My mother lived at Brookdale North Tucson for 3 1/2 years. It was obvious that the staff truely & emotionally cared for her, like one might care for an adopted child. I live out of state but communication was timely with important issues and topics. When I visited every 4-6 weeks her room was always clean. She was fed tasty meals on a regular basis, adhering to her tastes and preferences. I am happy to give Brookdale North Tucson 5 stars because they deserve it. I highly recommend them to anyone needing assisted living for their loved one.

We are Assisted Living Locators North Tucson and from the first day I met Karen and toured her community I knew we would work together in creating the best solutions for our seniors needs. Karen has been so accommodating, helpful, informative, caring and the sweetest to deal with. Everyone we met there is wonderful! Our client was so happy to be moving there. We are so excited to see him making new friends and getting involved in all the fun activities!

On August 24, 2023, my husband went out of his way and toured this assisted living property; he was given information and promised assisted living right away for our loved one as long as our loved one completes an intake with a nurse along with another thing. So, we scheduled an appointment for Tuesday, August 29th for a nurse to accompany our loved one to a medical appointment. My husband heard back from this facility on Friday, August 25th and was told that they couldn't take in our loved one, after being given misinformation and false promises and false hope. I would not recommend this place. We are frustrated as it is, and don't need this.

Our parents recently had to be placed in assisted living and after touring the facility with Brianne we chose Brookdale North Tucson. Brianne couldn’t have been more helpful and compassionate. Any communications were responded to extremely quickly and she was more than happy to answer any of our questions and assist in any way. The facility itself is extremely clean, the rooms are modern and well appointed, the staff is amazing, and my parents are extremely happy with the quality of the food. Obviously when you are forced to get family members into assisted living it isn’t easy on many levels, but Brianne and the Brookdale staff made the experience unbelievably easy and we’re incredibly supportive. Brookdale cares about their residents. I’d recommend them to everyone.
