Brookdale Scotts Valley

Looking back, we felt misled by Brookdale . Their analysis of Linds condition was inadequate , she never should have been recruited to be at Brookdale. [name removed] was bedridden, unable to car for herself, but Brookdale said they could care for her. Seemed like they were just trying to fill a room. When called for assistance, it could take 15 to 30 minutes for someone to show up. She was never gotten out of bed and wheeled to the dining room. She complained that some staff members were rough and rood to her. She did not like the food. They never took her to any activities. We trusted them to advise us on the suitability of there facility, they misled us. We have moved her to [community name removed] , a wonderful place with caring staff, always close by to help. My biggest take way, and advice for everyone is…know the condition and capability of the person going in, and pick a place suitable to them. Felt like Brookdale was just trying to fill a room, and their analyses of my sister’s condition was based on that.

Brookdale Scotts Valley

I love the food. There are always lots of choices for food & beverages. At dinner there is beer & wine. There is a movie daily which I look up to see if it interests me. They have concerts which haven't always liked because they play unfamiliar songs that they wrote. They have resident meetings monthly where you can discuss concerns with resident council & administrator. They have free tax prep if your income qualifies. They have a podiatrist & optometrist come monthly. They have transportation 7 days per week. They have field trips. This month it's the Steinbeck Museum. I am very happy here unlike where I used to live.

Review for Brookdale Scotts Valley

Their price was better. I also had experience with [facility removed] and was not that happy with them. I would say they are good. My complaint is they're short staffed. Sometimes the call button would not be answered especially on the weekend .

Friendly staff and Nice Community

My dad likes the security that the facility offers. He knows he's in a safe environment that can scale with his needs. He likes have the meals available and brought to him if needed. He is still very independent and mobile so not a lot of car needed. Therefore, I don't have a lot of feedback.

family experience of friendly, caring staff.

My mother-in-law likes the food. Too salty for me. My mother-in-law hasn't participated yet but they look good. Value for cost is great for 3 meals/day, internet, cable, laundry, house cleaning , keyless entry, elevator, activities, 24 hour coverage, studio apartment with small balcony in Santa Cruz county this place is great! And she's close to us- 10 minutes drive.

Review for Brookdale Scotts Valley

l picked Brookdale Scotts Valley because of previous experience with them and found that they have maintained the same top notch food and service for their residents that I expected. Response time in skilled nursing is as faster than other facilities previously experienced. My advice to anyone considering Brookdale is get to know the managers and communicate your needs to them.

Review for Brookdale Scotts Valley

The setting is very pretty. Our director [name removed] makes herself available if anyone has something to discuss with her. That's important to residents. It's important for people, to know what independent is, compared to services that are charged to your account.

Buyer Beware

Great caregivers but all about the money. Nationwide chain looking to serve their shareholders not their clients. Constantly battling them over costs and that is all they care about. Look at a locally operated facility with ties to the community not the shareholders..

Very negative on costs. Honestly we're not that happy. Communication is lacking as is their attitudes.

Very clean and peaceful

The community is very clean and if you call for help the staff members come to assist in a timely manner. They also have some really nice nursing aids. Right now we have been shut down due to covid so some of the things are pretty limited. They do have certain activities going on and today they are actually having a spa day. When the dining room was open the food was very good, the chefs that cook the food are very consciousness when it comes to cooking a nice healthy variety of meals for the residents. Right now the meals are being delivered to our rooms. It is expensive but I have a nice apartment with house keeping that comes to help clean and wash my clothes.

Highly recommend

I think that Brookdale Scotts Valley has a different feel and vibe to it just based on how it was built and where it is located amongst the trees. It feels more like an apartment complex versus and assisted living home.

The Community I Picked

I like the whole set up of the community and I enjoyed my visit with them for a week. I can't wait to move in. I like the friendly atmosphere and everything about the care they provide. Everybody is pleasant. It is near to family and convenient for them to pick me up. My main reason I picked them.

We loved [Removed]. I can't say enough about her. She is perfect for her job. She is so welcoming, friendly, knowledgeable, appropriate, and helpful. We loved the whole feeling of the place, amenities, apartments, social activities, and grounds . This place would be perfect for our mother. We need to meet with our mother and discuss what she can afford.
