Brookdale

The value for the cost at this community is very good. They have activities like a cowboy day, they also have puzzle activities and more for the residents to do to stay occupied and busy in the community. The staff try very hard, I feel like at times they may have been stretched thin but they all try really hard in the community with the residents.

I chose this place because it's clean, the people care, and because it's small. there are only 50 beds in this facility so it does not feel like an institution that takes in a hundred plus people. it is older, but I personally like that because you've got history with the staff since its been there a while, and they aren't hiring all new people. some people like brand new, but older appeals to me because of the history there and they know what they're doing. I don't necessarily like the fact that they are a corporation, but I have faced the reality that that's the way business is done today and is necessary for survival as a senior living community. I don't think that's any different than any place else, there are very few independently ran places. everyone is terrific, its just that I sometimes feel that they have a lack of staff or staffing issues, but everyone has staffing issues right now and trouble finding good quality help. when it comes to the staff that they do have - there are always a few bad apples out the bunch - but the staff that I interact with most of the time are so kind with the residents, have been there a long time and have a caring nature. they could do a bit better with their activities, although they are offered consistently there are times I visit and there's nothing going on. the one person who really contributed towards that is now working with a new community, so it was sad to see her go, but that kind of thing happens. overall, its a great place but there's always room for improvement. I would absolutely recommend this community to others.

Been alright, but rather be at home, getting along with the residents, been to a few places, this has been one of the better places

Don't have anything negative to say, the staff is very accommodating, feel safe

The staff is very nice, friendly with most of the residents

I like it, I feel very at home. Its big enough for me, its homie, need more people (men), people are doing a fantastic job, I feel like I'm getting what I'm paying for

People are nice, seen no bad experiences, its been a pleasant experience

We had a great tour at Brookdale Newnan. My first impression was that it was a really great place. It was the best out of the three places that we looked at.

Overall we had a good experience. It was a very short stay, but the time my loved one did spend there was pleasant. They did the best they could for her. The staff was very friendly and very helpful, from the people we met with to do the tour, to the nursing staff, to the aides. They were very accommodating for us. And the facility itself was very nice overall.

friendly staff. follow up responses about change of condition from mom very quick. always listen when I had concerns and followed my wishes. they took a bunch a stress away.

This is a very nice community that is well maintained in a great location. Everyone is very mindful of the residents. They are really good people and a comfortable place for your mom or dad. They do have activities however my loved one has participated just yet but they do try had to get everyone involved and keep them active. I don't know how much better they could do.

it isn't too bad. seems alright, been living here about 6 months.

love it, for the most part. I have made new friends. everyone has been very welcoming.

it's been good. the staff are nice, the food is okay.

I'm satisfied. I get along with everyone.

We chose Brookdale Cushing Park because we were moving states to be closer to family and there were certain things we needed in a facility such as it being smoker friendly and pet friendly and we found that here. We are in independent living and have our own little house with a garage. It is 2 a bedroom and 2 bathroom and just the perfect size for what we need. We would recommend Brookdale to others looking.

I like this community because they are willing to work with you for the needs of your loved one. 90% of the staff is really sweet and willing to do whatever for my loved one. The tour was great and they explained to me then what all my loved one would need and what all they could provide for me and I liked the fact that all of the information was given in the beginning.

My loved one had a very short stay here. If your loved one passes in the community, they charge for an additional week after your loved one passes. This is disturbing to the family as we had all of my loved one's belongings out the same day our loved one passed. The community still charged us for the additional week. They gave me some numbers to call as the community wouldn't agree to refund the money for us for that additional week that we had to pay. I feel this was a bad business decision. The staff were wonderful and caring during the time my loved one was there. My loved one was on hospice care, and they kept me updated on my loved one. They were very kind and caring. They even were concerned about the entire family and our loved one during this difficult time.

They do have an exercise program called Fitbit and they do bingo, but I think they could provide more for the residents to do. The food was not as presented, they do a lot of sandwiches from what I have seen and the lunch is the main meal. The staff are all very friendly and helpful so that has been great. I do think communication could be improved on with the families especially with the medications, we have to follow up on a lot of things to get them done. I do know they are going through some staffing changes and they are getting a new director. They do have a new gal doing housekeeping and she is doing a better job than the last person. It is expensive and all of the things that they promised are not always being followed through with. It is definitely better than some places I saw and they are really trying, they just could some improvements.

We chose Brookdale Cushing Park because it was affordable and my mother had stayed at Brookdale facility in California and the experience was good and she was happy there. They were willing to be flexible with our timing and they even gave us furniture since my mom was moving from out of state. They just made the biggest effort to be accommodating. It is a super nice facility and the management is very understanding and willing to help and truly concerned about the residents. I would recommend them to others looking.
