Continuing Care Community in Tracy, California

Linda

Brookdale Tracy was a beautiful facility, but they don't take part Medicare, and they quote it from $5,000 to $8,500 a month. They had studios, one-bedrooms, and two-bedrooms, which you share, plus each need costs extra; just to pick up medication is $500 a month. They were outrageous. They had physical therapy, speech therapy, meals, and everything. If I could afford it, I would have put my husband there. The rooms were OK and clean. The staff was nice in the beginning, but when I told them that they're too expensive, one of the girls turned cold.

New Hope Post Acute Care was nice. The greeter who does the applications was very nice. The rooms were nice. I liked the nice and open lobby. The people behind the desk were great. Their physical therapy room and game room were a 5, plus they take some Medicare, which was what I was looking for. The meals were prepared. They had a physical therapist there and visiting doctors and trained nurses. They had a large activity room with tables and chairs and had exercises for the people, plus those in wheelchairs were doing little exercises like isometrics.

My wife has been in Brookdale for four years. The service is fine, but the cost is getting out of hand. The whole staff changed when it was bought out a year or two ago. They take care of everything, including the medications.

My mom likes Brookdale Tracy. It's clean and comfortable, and the staff is nice and have lots of patience. The residents go on excursions or outings, and they play games. They have a dance once a month and a social night on Friday evenings. They also have church there.
