We moved my parents to The Village at Brookfield Common a few weeks ago from Long Island, and they are settling in nicely and enjoying their new home. The staff has been exceptionally helpful and kind, which has made the transition much easier for them. They’ve started making friends through games of Rummikub and by attending the many daily social events offered at Brookfield Common. Overall, it has been a very positive experience for them.

We toured Brookfield Commons with Jonathan Rivera, and he and his staff were warm and welcoming. On the day of our tour, residents were socializing, relaxing in common areas with a cup of coffee, listening to music. It’s clear they truly feel at home there. The staff took extra time to answer our questions, and Jonathan was kind, and attentive to our mother’s needs. It is a pleasure to meet people who truly love what they do, and we highly recommend Brookfield Commons.
