Horrible facility. From eyes view the place looks pleasant and spaciuos. Dont be fooled, the care is inadequate on the memory care side. My mother was rarely bathed so I had to hire an outside caretaker to clean her up and change her clothes. Shes fallen 3 different times and now she just got out of ICU and cannot walk at this time. This place is the worst.

My mom has been in this facility since 2019. The facility is safe and the common areas are clean. However, for $5,500 a month you would think they could make sure she has a mini fridge in her room. Hers broke and they hauled it away months ago and they have yet to replace it. Even crappy cheap apartments come with a working fridge. They aren’t even that expensive, maybe $100 at most. I can’t afford to buy one (see rent amount above) and I should not have to. Just as I should not be responsible for keeping her room clean. They haven’t done a good carpet cleaning in her room in ages, the carpet is very stained. The staff who bring my mom meds/attend to her are very sweet and helpful, hence the three stars. If it weren’t for them I would definitely dock stars from my rating.

My mother absolutely loves where she lives and is the happiest I have seen her in years. She has met many wonderful friends and loves keeping busy with all of the daily activities! Thank you Brookdale Wax for taking such great care of my mother!
