For the Village at Brookfield Common , I would give all 5s. And if it went up to 10 I would give that for all. My mother is in the memory care floor, which is great, and I would recommend it to anyone who needs memory care.

There is a [amount removed] deposit which is an intake fee which they did not say was non-refundable. My loved one is in the memory care community. They are super helpful and reevaluate. Really nice, clean rooms, do laundry and clean daily. Lots of activities. It is cheaper in the memory care vs. regular community. They charge different levels for medications. Different levels for care on top of the rent/meals fee. Medicare does not pay anything. All costs are on you.

Be careful reviewing the financials. Sometime "treatment care packages" were added after mom was there. It was sticker shock. They are very responsive to concerns and good communication

Mom moved in to Ashland Farm about six weeks ago. It took very little time for her to meet community members. The staff have been wonderful; caring, attentive, and respectful. Our Dad passed shortly after Mom moved in. The community, staff and residents, were so supportive and understanding. It really has helped our family knowing that our Mom is safe and cared for. Mom has participated in numerous activities ranging from exercise to ice cream socials. Our family visits often and we are always impressed with the sense of community that exists.

It was a relatively easy transition for my mom. After meeting my mom they assigned her to a dining table where they thought she would enjoy the women at her table. It was a perfect match. The women are friendly and welcoming. She was given a buddy who walks with her almost every day. My mom has participated in several activities and has enjoyed having a social life again. If my mom needs help she wears a buzzer to summon an aide. The help is there if she asks for it. If my mom falls at has a cut they call me immediately and there is always a nurse on duty. I don’t worry as much about her since there is always someone there to help her.

(21 reviews)
I would do a five for pretty much everything. They've been quite outstanding. I'm happy with the amount of service we're getting he likes the food. they have plenty of great activities, but he does not involve himself, but they're always doing something which is nice to see the only drawback that I have is that every time there's a shift change, they change his Depends diapers. So we're going through quite a bit of them even though I've asked them to not change it if he isn't wet yet. But sometimes it's up to six a day that are used. Other than that, staff is fantastic, outstanding polite, really kind and courteous to its residence. My father is in the memory care wing so there's a lot of hands-on with the staff couldn't say anything negative really. I hope others find this assisted living facility comfortable and clean. It is a nice option in this area.
