BROOKDALE CANTON

We toured here for my mom a few years back. Mom liked the view of the courtyard from the rooms we saw. The residents were playing cards in the sunroom. Mom had been an avid bridge player, so that was a plus for us. They have a salon which is open once a week for the residents. They do haircuts and perms which mom liked. Front porch facing the road to sit and watch traffic. It was between Akron where my sister is and Dover where I live, but ultimately mom needed skilled care and we kept her in Dover.

Very nice community. We liked the smaller feel of the building. Kinda feels like you’re in someone’s house rather than senior care. My grandpa liked the enclosed courtyard area and once a week they have yoga and the instructor brings her two dogs. Aides respond to calls pretty quick and the food seems good. Always smells good when I come in after work to visit before dinner.

We moved here in July of last year. We very quickly felt part of the family and were very impressed that the staff showed concern for our needs. The cafeteria staff took Betty’s special dietary needs seriously. Another big adjustment came when Betty passed away in January of this year. The staff and the residents showed concern for me and my family that helped us deal with our loss. I feel a special closeness to the family here in Brookdale Canton now.

Our family member that lived there and also family that visited loved it at Brookdale Canton Ohio. Everyone that worked there was nice and considerate and respectful and attentive to the needs and wants of our family. We believe that it has prolonged or extended the life of our loved one because if the nature of all who worked there and the sense of home that was received while there. It is a beautiful place to live and visit. Thank you to all of you there.

Although these have been trying times for anyone having to place a loved one in the care of others, The Brookdale staff have been amazing to work with. They helped guide me in my decisions and provided valuable insights for consideration as I dealt with the difficulties of the situation. Catherine, Sarah, and the staff team have been very pleasant to deal with. They always answer when I call, greet me with a smile when I visit, and treat my loved one with the care and respect she deserves. I highly recommend Brookdale regardless of your care needs, they will take care of you and your loved ones.
