Witnessed massive amounts of neglect, abuse CNA’s screaming pulling on dementia patients. Not changing patients. Turning off call lights and not answering them. Staff sit on their phone all day

My father has been at Brookshire Post Acute since last December 2023. It is surely not the prettiest place aesthetically, but the team of angel humans that take care of my father there are outstanding. And, as hard as it was for us to place him in the memory care unit, I truly would not want him anywhere else. If you are deciding between a few places, knowing your loved one is cared for, warm, fed and safe is all that truly matters. And Brookshire provides all of this and then some. I need to give a huge shout out and commendation to the following individuals who have been nothing short of amazing and invaluable in our time here. They all play their unique roles in the care and support and I have no doubt it is so exhausting yet they show up every single day so we as loved ones can have peace of mind. Thank you Flo A., James S., Susana J., Herlina T., Stephanie the social worker, Magaly, Sam and last, but not least, Fred the D.O.N.. And everyone and anyone I haven't met or have unintentionally forgot to mention. Words cannot express my gratitude for all you do and continue to do to care for my Daddy-O, Bruce. He loves you all and so do I. Our entire family does. Thank you angel humans and Brookshire is sure lucky to have you all!

From admissions to the providers, nurses, pt, st and cna’s, the care that is given there is extraordinary. I know my loved one is safe and I cannot ask for more! Thank you to the team at Brookshire!
