We are very thankful to Brookdale Lake View for caring for my mom over the last year. She complains from time to time, but overall everyone we have met and communicated with has been caring and engaged despite experiencing staffing shortages and Covid impacts etc. Everyone has been incredibly empathetic and responsive. My mom is doing so much better since being there.

At first I was interested in a seniors apartment building, not a community. Upon investigating Brookdale, I decided it offered all I was looking for and more. I'm one of the independent living residents. While still self-sufficient in most ways, I enjoy all of the helpful resources and comforts here.

July 5, 2022Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback!
I have been very pleased with Brookdale Lake View. I was surprised with how good [name removed] was with her, she made the transition for my mom smooth and she helped a lot. She does not use the activities but absolutely raves about the meals. They are delivering everything that I was hoping for.

Brookdale is adequate, its meeting our needs although its a bit expensive. But I understand that all of these communities can be a bit on the pricier side.

May 6, 2022Thank you for choosing Brookdale and taking the time to share your feedback. We would welcome an opportunity to discuss any concerns you may have and encourage you to contact our management team.
I think they've done a great job. My loved one can be a challenging case, and they've worked with us to make sure she has the care that she needs. They do a great job keeping our family updating and communicate well with us. They've just been really helpful and attentive. And my loved one says she likes the food, as well as the activities she's tried so far.

This Brookdale community does not feel like a senior center it feels more like a nice hotel. Based on our experience so far we would recommend this community to others.

Our loved one were there for 10 years, and unfortunately had to leave because they did not accept medicaid. However, it was kept very clean, the staff were very nice and did a really good job keeping up with all the changes in the protocols. They constantly checked everyone's temperatures and kept families up to date. It is a cooperate community so much bigger with more residents. Our loved one did say the meals were kind of a draw back, they changed vendors and when that happened the meals sort of declined.

This would be a good place if you have a relative to go into a residential community, that offers a lot. It is close to a lot shopping centers. The people are very nice and helpful. They have a lot of activities for the residents to choose from. Such as crafts, bingo, and more. The food is good!
