Searching for senior living that would ease some of the burdens of aging, my wife and I chose Brookdale OP for nearby family and the vibrant Oak Park community. We moved in late January 2025, with staff efficiently enabling our move into our new high floor, 2 bdrm apt. From our first week here we’ve been very happy with Brookdale OP. It is everything we hoped for in independent senior living, comfortable physical setting, supportive staff, nice quality food service, and engaging activities. However, what we’ve discovered that makes Beooksale OP optimal for our goals and values is its community of accomplished and engaging residents.

Brookdale Oak Park has been the best we could have imagined for my parents who needed assisted living. At the end of my father's life, they supported our family through rough days... especially the nurses and CNAs were Godsends. My mom really enjoys the staff who check on her regularly and take their jobs seriously and personally. The food is excellent, housekeeping and maintenance are kind and professional, and the food service staff are great. After a few bumps to get rolling for move in, really, we couldn't be more pleased to be part of the community.

We moved our dad into Brookdale and he loves it! Services have been delivered with kindness and excellence. He's made new friends and participated in many of the available social activities. His apartment is very comfortable and kept clean by the outstanding staff. We are very happy our dad chose Brookdale.
