Brookdale Arbor Place

Karen

Brookdale Arbor Place is a beautiful facility and the rooms were very nice. The amenities were nice and they have a great menu. They just really went above and beyond as far as going out and visiting my dad. It's in a great location and it's right by a major store and medical facility. The rooms were very nice, updated, and clean. They had a lot of activities like men's group, card groups, and movie nights. The staff I interacted with was wonderful.

Brookdale Arbor Place is OK. There's plenty to do. There's all kinds of get-togethers and clubs. The food is OK. There's usually several choices and you just pick and choose what you want. They're very accommodating so we're getting along just fine with the food situation. They're very friendly and helpful here. They come and check on me and make sure I'm doing OK. Sometimes I just think the staff is overly cautious to make sure that everything is going good for me. The food is kind of blah since there are a lot of diabetics who live here, so the lack of seasoning is getting kind of hard to get used to, but there's salt, pepper, ketchup, and mustard on the table. The servers don't judge you if you want an extra helping and they just jump right to it. I've got a nice, big studio which is very roomy. My daughter has furnished it with a few things like a new dresser, a book case, a table, TV with cable and VCR, microwave, refrigerator, and toaster, so it's very homey. I'm very comfortable here and I've got everything that I need. They have bingo, craft classes, pinochle, card games, singalongs, guests who perform like hula dancers and a jazz band, and movie nights. They have outings on a bus if you're capable of going out. They give you a sheet to tell you what they're doing every day, and there's usually five or six items that you can join in on, so you don't have to sit in your room and be a wallflower. They have a room with puzzles set up, and you can go in any time and work on a puzzle or do word games. There are nurses to dispense meds if you need it. They do my laundry once a week, help me with two showers a week, and housekeeping comes and vacuums and cleans the toilet, and that's all included in the price.
