Brookside Assisted Living Community

The residents are the best. The management however is not. Arbitrary rules are sometimes enforced and other times ignored. Rules are very detailed listing what furniture is allowed on your porch for example. The grounds around the patio homes are very hilly making it impossible for people with disabilities to walk around outside. But in the apartments and cottages areas the ground is level and easily accessible. We lived there on the hilly part for 10 months and got out as soon as we found alternate accommodations. We were willing to pay the penalty in order to leave before our lease expired. Socially it is a great place for seniors. It is a safe place that is mostly maintained well. But it is not a good fit for people who want reasonable, equably enforced rules.

Ray & I really enjoy living here. The staff is really wonderful. The community is nice , clean and quiet. They have a monthly calendar with activities. You can have a walk and relax at several gazebos that are there Any maintenance needed they are right there. Staff is always helpful with any questions you have. I highly recommend living here.

Brookside has been such a blessing to our family. We moved our grandmother in and it has done wonders for her socially. I used to work in assisted living and with my past experience this place is top notch. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. If you are looking for a loved one you can’t go wrong at brookside.

Brookside is absolutely the best senior community to be part of for anyone. The office staff is always so helpful and caring. The food is great, there is a lot of activities and friendly neighbors. If you are looking for a place for yourself or your family member check out Brookside because it is so nice!

My mother moved into an independent living apartment at Brookside in 2011 and moved to their Assisted Living facility this year. I asked a couple of the direct care workers if they liked working here and they said yes, enthusiastically. In Long-term Care facilities, that is always a good sign that Administration/Management/Ownership treat them well and that they will treat our loved ones well. The caregivers and nursing staff are observant, thorough, warm and engaging. The kitchen staff routinely go above and beyond for Mom. As weight loss has been of concern for her, they will bring her a milkshake in the evenings if she wants. She had always been afraid that she would lose her independence in a residential setting, but at Brookside, the services are very much person-centered. There are lovely activities and celebrations to recognize residents' accomplishments, and the socialization has been an asset for Mom's wellness. The independent living apartments are also being renovated, including installations of accessible bathrooms. We couldn't be happier with Brookside.
