We’ve been extremely happy with Brookdale after a bad experience we had at another facility. After a couple weeks at she got a very bad UTI that we recognized. They refused our request for a urine test.Said she was acting out. She ended up in hospital for 9 days after having a seizure. Upon her return they said she kept acting out and told us she had to leave. Thats when we found Brookdale. They said it sounded like normal Alzheimer’s behavior and agreed to take her. We have had zero problems since. We suspected a UTI once and they got right on it. Turns out the other place was using Alprazolam on residents to control them in one room. Brookdale residents are free to walk around where they like. The building is secure, but they can go outside on the beautiful deck with a view of the harbor. My mom does not “act out” here at Brookdale. She loves her room and especially loves the cats. For us the cats are one of the best things they have done. Another thing we love about Brookdale is the family events they have. We’ve been to great Barbecues, a tea party and even a Luau. The food is always good and it’s a great way for mom to have her family there for a meal together. One of the hardest decisions in life is how you are going to care for a loved one with Alzheimer’s. We tried it at her home. It was a disaster. None of us have the ability to have her at our homes, plus the simple fact she doesn’t want to be anywhere but her home. Having full time caregivers come in was just not possible. We could barely get someone 6 hours a day and even then it was sketchy. After our experience with the other facility Brookdale was a lifeline. Brookdale has been great. They told us it takes about 3 months to settle in, and they were right. We visit 2 to 4 days a week. When we take her out and she gets tired she tells us she wants to go home. She means her room at Brookdale. She feels safe there and we know she is in good hands.
