Brookstone Terrace

My family and loved one are happy with our experience with Brookstone Terrace. My loved one is very self reliant, and the staff are happy to assist when needed. The community is clean and I appreciate this very much. There are three meals a day for the residents.

My mother in law said some of the meals were great and some of the other meals were terrible. However I did not get a chance to eat there so I am not too sure. With the activities I do wish they had transportation to take the residents to outside events. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend the Brookstone Terrace of Simpsonville community to other families.

My loved one is here and is happy. The staff are good at sending photos of my loved one smiling and this is a treasure for me. The staff communication with the family is good. They have made sure that the family has direct phone numbers to reach out to when we have questions. The food is good, since my loved one hasn't complained. There are three meals a day served to the residents. The chef is willing to accommodate resident's requests. It would be nice to have more activities for the residents to participate in and outside of the community.

I toured this facility. It was too far from home for us, but staff was nice and facility was clean.

When I came to tour, I really liked the location of the facility and felt it was a safe environment. It seems like they always have something going on, they have a calendar with all of the activities provided. Whenever I have questions or concerns the administrative staff are always very easy to reach. They are proactive with covid protocols and they are keeping the residents safe. I would recommend to others looking.

This was a very nice facility it just was not the best for my loved one.

I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. The staff and their caring nature stand out to me. It would be nice to keep seeing the updates coming to the community.

We chose this community because of the location and they only allow 14 in their Alzheimer's unit, so we like the ratio, it is more individualized care and every morning they do their hair and nails. The room sizes here are very large, they have 2 to a room but they are spacious. I have not eaten here but my mom seems to love it. Since COVID, we are able to make appointments and have porch visits Tuesday-Saturday. My favorite part about the community so far has been the care she receives, she seems happy every time we see her. When we could go in before covid, we could interact with the residents and they seemed happy and they all got along.

Offers a farther location with acceptable care in an older, smaller traditional assisted living facility. Provide more tiered care levels.

Nice Assisted living and recent renovations to Special care/Alzheimers unit make it nicer. But still a marked difference between the two sides. Mom has lived on both sides and we are happy w/ her placement. They try to meet the residents' needs and are willing to go out of their way to accommodate if possible

Clean and beautiful facility. 1 CNA per 10 patients. Assisted living section was very desirable but alzheimer's care side did not as nice as Mallard Ridge. This would be my second choice.

When I first put my mom there they had enough staff and they were attentive. That changed as they got more residents. They don't have enough staff to watch the residents. However its like that at most communities.

They are under staffed. The staff does not interact with residents, stand offshore, it's just a job, 60% of the staff are good, 40% do as little as possible. A great deal of turnover. If they come and get my loved one they will participate they do that 50% of the time. They are reactive and proactive I've been told that all assisted living facilities are in the same boat, the staff pay is low for a difficult job, limited labor pool, more emphasis on bottom line less on quality of care.

A great and clean place for mom, however I feel some of the staff workers were not equipped to handle the dementia patients. My mom got agitated really easy and I feel the staff were not trained specifically how to properly redirect the residents. My mom got kicked out because she hurt one of the staff members and I feel like that could have been avoided.

The facility was very clean and updated. I misunderstood that it was an all inclusive environment with residents of varied levels of abilities. At times it was too much for my Mom to handle. The food was one of the things that we were told was special, upscale & great quality and it just wasn't.

I would recommend this facility to others, provided the resident is not a serious fall risk.

My Mom is no longer staying at BST of Woodruff because on [date removed] she fell & broke her hip. They wouldn't have her back there unless she had 20 days of rehab & her insurance would only cover 14 days. When she initially went to live at BST my Mom was Independent with dressing & bathing but when she got COVID in Oct she declined physically & cognitively and they left her level of care the same when she needed a lot more one on one attention. The staff is very sweet, very friendly, but they are sparse & if your person needs increased level of care they say they provide whatever is needed at no additional charge but unless they are unsafe the staff just lets them be, staying in their room with little interaction. I would recommend BST of Woodruff only for high functioning individuals who need basic supervision or medication management for safety

My family and loved one had an average experience. Everyone seemed friendly. We would recommend you ask lots of questions and tour each community well, before committing to a single one.

We chose this facility because it was convenient to my location, clean, and had a nice physical appearance. Also because they had a room available when we needed it. However, we had a bad experience with my uncle, due to him falling in a wheelchair while not being supervised, resulting in his hip broken and they would not accept him back. Was not pleased and had an advocacy to investigate the facility. It is a nice place, clean, but need more staffing. Cannot recommend due to my experience.

Too far to travel for daily family visits
