My mother left her home of 55 years to move into Brookdale Southfield, and I can’t express how grateful we are for this decision. From the moment she arrived, she was immediately impressed with the warm and welcoming atmosphere. Her apartment was beautifully designed, providing just the right amount of space for her to feel comfortable and independent. One of her favorite parts of the day was getting dressed for dinner and heading downstairs to enjoy a meal and conversation with her new friends. Brookdale Southfield didn’t just provide her with a new home—it truly added years to her life, bringing her joy and a renewed sense of community.

My mother stayed at Brookdale for respite care. Amber was very accommodating and we can't say enough about her customer service. The room was very spacious and modern. There were opportunities to participate in fun activities on and off-site. The entire facility is well kept and beautiful. My mother was overall comfortable during her stay and enjoyed the meals. We will consider Brookdale for longterm residency the time comes.

My Father looked at a lot of senior facilities before deciding on Southfield Brookdale. My husband and I are very Impressed with how well run Brookdale is. They have the BEST people helping the residents. It wasn’t easy for anyone during the pandemic. Sarah the director of Brookdale did a stellar job. Shelly found many creative ways to help the boredom of the residents during Covid. From live Music played outside of the building, Moonbeams for Sweet-dreams, Ice Cream and Candy delivery, Bar cart on Fridays, and many other things. The Covid vaccine Clinic was very well organized. Derek was so very helpful with my Mother getting her vaccine. We were so grateful for your help. We recommend Brookdale Southfield 100 percent. Jon and Marilyn Lehman

I would give Brookdale Southfield 10 stars if I could! My 93 year old mother has been a resident for over six years. There is no doubt that her life has been extended and enriched by the Brookdale Southfield environment and “family” of friends and staff. The building is beautifully decorated and maintained; the amenities and activities provide comfort, camaraderie, stimulation and fun. The staff (“Associates”) is responsive, solicitous, and compassionate. During the pandemic Brookdale Southfield Associates have been positively heroic in protecting residents, pivoting to new responsibilities (e.g., meal delivery, laundry service, daily temperature checks, etc.) and devising creative, safe activities to boost morale and fend off loneliness. The entire team – Executive Director, Resident Services, Resident Programs, Housekeeping, Maintenance, Food Service, Reception, etc. – deserves top rating and gratitude. Mom is in the right place! Thank you.
