Brookdale

My brother is doing well here at this community. So far it has been a good experience, and I'am satisfied with all they have done for us. At the moment they are upgrading much of the community. It is nice to see they are doing some updating around the place. The staff is great, they are very attentive. The activities are still a work in progress, but they are working on it. The meals vary, sometimes they are good, and other times they aren't. I know he is safe, and being cared for well at this community.

My dad is not getting the care that he should. The staff do not seem to be very helpful. They do not offer a lot of activities. They have the same meals everyday and the food is terrible. The community is pretty clean.

The Brookdale Eden Estates community was dark. It did not have the positive atmosphere we were looking for. Also, it was in need of updating. The place looked old. It just wasn't a good fit for us at the time.

The staff I met at this community during my tour were nice. This community did not seem as nice as the one we chose. It seemed like a clean community.

My loved one is doing much better since we moved her into this community. The staff is friendly , they have their bad days sometimes where you can tell they do not want to be bothered but I don't blame them. The meals are the main thing we are not very happy with. The portions are very small and I've heard from multiple residents that they are not allowed to ask for more, as there wouldn't be enough for everyone. Also, I would like to see more variety in the choice of food, almost every night they have sandwiches. The room my loved one is in is very comfortable, and she has made friends with some of the staff and residents.

We had a pleasant tour of this community. The staff was kind and friendly. From what I saw the community appeared to be well maintained. Everything was nice and clean. It was a nice experience.

This is a nice community, and it was one of my top picks. They were very nice and helpful. My tour of the community went very well. Everything looked nice and clean. The staff was friendly and kind. It was a place I was comfortable moving my father. Unfortunately they did not have any rooms available at the time.

We are moving to Olympia, Wa. from California and will be bringing my Mom to Brookdale Olympia East. We've only just toured Brookdale and talked with Cindy pretty extensively. We chose Brookdale because it is most like the assisted living home my Mom is in currently. Brookdale came out with glowing colors after touring a couple other places. It appeared to be very well organized, was super clean & no hallways that smelled like a hospital. It had a very pleasant feel. After making the decision, we have received emails giving us an idea of what it will be like, the programs that will be available for Mom. Although we are not there yet, I feel confident it will be the best place for her. I only gave it a 3 star since Mom is not actually there yet, but based on everything I know, i am sure it will be a 5 star.

The people seem to be friendly the first week. The facility is a little on the dirty side and could use a little help in that aspect. The food did not look all that appetizing from what I saw, and Mom did not care for it to much.

My friends experience at this community has been good but could use some improvement. The staff is really friendly and attentive to her. The meals however, are good during the week, and not so good on the weekend as they have a different cook for the weekends. On those days the meals don't taste as good and are not cooked properly. The cups are not always washed after each use. My loved one has also had a big problem with spiders in her room and her sheets are not always changed when needed.

This was a nice facility but again was not a good fit for mom. Also I thought was a little too high priced for what they had to offer.

This was not a good fit for mom.

good atmosphere; proud of their food; no private rooms; i like the location (for me) & it is very near Union Memorial Hospital

Friendly staff, clean facility, food is marginal

My mother is doing okay since moving here to this community. It has been a rough adjustment for her, but I know she is in a nice place. She is in the independent living portion of the community, but she has access to help if she needs it. There are activities offered, but there could be a more of a variety for the residents to choose from. They have a super nice staff, they have been very helpful. The meals could use some improvements. It is still a work in progress for us here overall.

This is a clean community and well taken care of. The staff does a good job, but there could be room for improvement. They do offer activities. The meals are good with a nice variety. I would overall recommend this community.

Older building, people there very nice, made a good 1st impression.

This community needs a lot of improvement, the food is very bland and has little to no taste. There also seems to be a lot of confusion with the staffing and the scheduling. Things are often promised to my loved one and then are quickly forgotten and not followed through with. I am not very satisfied with the service they have been receiving and am hoping improvements are made quickly.

I toured this community for my mother and her needs. From what I saw I felt this community was for more advanced dementia patients. It is a good looking community. Everything appeared to be well maintained. They have nice activities available for the residents. The residents were kind. Unfortunately this community wouldn't had been a good fit for my mother.

I am not to happy with this community, they have not provided the care that was promised to my loved one at all. The staff has not kept up with the cleanliness of her bedroom, I often would go into her room with old food trays and the bathroom is a complete mess. I am very disappointed and dissatisfied with there overall performance at this facility.
