Previewing Brookdale Sr. Care community

After visits to several communities in the Houston area, I felt the most peace at Brookdale; They offer fine amenities and services. [name removed] and staff were extremely professional, caring and thorough with answering my questions. All of my follow up calls and texts were promptly addressed. We ultimately chose Brookdale for the location, beautiful grounds, amenities, and kind staff.

Brookdale Memorial City

As I began to search for a place to live, I found myself reading about people finding a place for their elderly loved ones, and here I found “A Place for Mom.” At first, I was shy because I just knew I couldn’t afford an independent living facility. The staff kept after me and in time we began to meet. We identified where I wanted to live, what kind of living atmosphere I wanted, and what I could afford. And Wow, In a matter of weeks we found a perfect place for me. It’s called Brookdale Memorial City. Now I had two teams of professionals helping me make a transition to independent living. They both did a great job. I now live in a 650 square foot apartment that is more spacious than my pervious apartment because of the way its laid out. Now after 7 weeks I find myself surrounded by literally hundreds of people my age who are eager to meet and talk and share. The food is well above average and there are more activities than I can keep up with. I don’t need a car because of the amazing level of free transportation they provide. I get a visit from housekeeping once a week and trash pickup is three times a week.

Visit and take a look!

Brookdale Memorial City has been a wonderful place for my family. The staff are caring, patient, and truly dedicated to the residents’ well-being. Every day she feels happy and supported, and that gives our whole family great peace of mind. The environment is clean, safe, and welcoming, and the activities are engaging and enjoyable, helping residents stay active and connected. What impresses me most is how the team treats everyone with respect and kindness, making it feel like home. I am very grateful and highly recommend Brookdale Memorial City to other families.

A new place for mom

Moving mom to a new place at age 94 has been challenging. [name removed] & [name removed] were amazing to help us with moving in details and working with us. They are so friendly and helpful and continue to support mom. [name removed] is AMAZING !!! He has been available to help with the little things like helping us with the phone and cable set up. He checks on mom regularly to make sure she is settling in . [name removed] has also helped us to get apt set up to meet her needs. His smile is contagious and follows through with what he says he will do to help.

New Resident, Third Day

Moving in a weekend went smoothly and I have already met some of my neighbors. Everyone is friendly and helpful. It’s a big place and I might get lost easily but I have met my move in coordinator and she seems very informational. No complains so it’s been perfect.

Good compromise between living at home and assisted living

My father likes the facility and all the staff we have had interactions with have been kind and helpful. I would recommend it anyone looking for independent care.

The negatives outweigh the positive

1) Bedbug problem for over a year. Her apartment was treated but not enough of the community to prevent bedbugs returning. I was forced to pay for treatment and still bedbugs returned. 2) I'm aware Brookdale is independent living facility and limited in the amount of assistance they can provide. My mother had mild cognitive impairment and would occasionally get disoriented in the community. Staff would assist her, then I would receive a scolding phone call, but never direct communication that she needed to leave Brookdale. In [date removed], per her doctor, the dementia had progressed to requiring full-time care. I immediately sought a memory care facility, but before I could get her moved, Brookdale management called ADULT PROTECTIVE SERVICES to report concerns about her safety. No prior notice to me or any demand that she move-out (which they had a right to do if they thought her safety at risk). Humiliating and cruel given the sincere efforts I was making to get her help.
