    Active community, limited medical care

    I placed my loved one here - the community is clean, modern and very active (ice cream socials, concerts, outings, daily services and therapy) and the staff are warm, caring and often go above and beyond. That said, nurses and CNAs are stretched thin and management/communication is inconsistent across departments. It's expensive with extra fees and limited ability to handle higher medical needs (no on-site night nurse, costly memory care-many families hire 24/7 in-home aides). There have been coordination and safety issues (falls, hospitalizations, med delays), though rehab/therapy and daily activities are strong. I'd recommend it for socially engaged seniors who need light-to-moderate assistance, but not for anyone needing advanced or round-the-clock skilled care.

Founded in 1978 and publicly traded since 2005, Brookdale solidified its market leadership through major acquisitions including American Retirement Corporation (2006) and Emeritus Senior Living (2014), making it the only national full-spectrum senior living company.

Brookdale's signature Clare Bridge program, developed over 30 years ago by dementia-care experts, provides specialized Alzheimer's and dementia care through two distinct levels: Clare Bridge communities for comprehensive memory support and the Clare Bridge Solace program for advanced-stage dementia residents. The program is recognized by the Alzheimer's Association® for incorporating evidence-based Dementia Care Practice Recommendations and features secure environments, enclosed courtyards, Daily Path programming with six structured activities daily, and the InTouch technology platform offering personalized brain-stimulating games and therapeutic content.
