Greenbrier Senior Living

Peace of mind is priceless. Peace of mind is what I have now that my 92 year old father is a resident of Sycamore Trace. I know that he is warm in the winter, cool in the summer, has three nutritious meals per day and is surrounded by people who care for him. The residents and staff at Sycamore Trace have become my second family, and I am truly blessed.

When you first come, you don't want to be here but you adjust. I am one of the lucky ones who can still drive and has a car, therefore I am able to do more activities than some. I play some of the games here and love to go out with the group once a month and eat.

I have lived here 1 year and 7 months. It is a wonderful place to live the staff are great, I'm happy to live here. I would recommend it to anyone.

We are very happy with the living accommodations, food service, and caring attitude of the personnel at Grandview. Residents are given a variety of activities to choose from, including outside excursions, and transportation to serve personal needs.

Everyone at Brookdale is wonderful and has helped us with anything we have needed. I would highly recommend their facility to anyone!

As I was first trying to get a relative into the memory care facility, my first encounter with the staff was overwhelmingly great. I was in somewhat of a state of confusion with serious family situations, including a death in the family, and the people at Redstone Village allowed me to see that I did not have to go through this alone, and that they would be helping me throughout the process. Over the months that my relative has now been there, the staff was always friendly, outgoing, and helpful, telling me things of which I should be aware about my relative, and things I should take care of to make the whole thing work out well. They make sure that I know that it is a team effort, not one I must face alone. I have found the food well balanced and nutritious, and the caretakers totally adaptive to my relative's needs, regarding time of eating, etc. Also, after presenting the proper paperwork, I have been allowed to bring my dog, whom my relative and other residents adore, and who perks her and the others up when she (the dog) comes. I have never heard a cross word from the staff, in spite of the fact that my relative can be quite a handful. The staff is patient and loving. So, I can honestly recommend Redstone Village for excellent care and great facilities.

We met with [name removed] and she took us on a wonderful tour of Grandview Gardens Memory Community. The community is very spacious, rooms are nice, and the staff are very welcoming. They have plenty of activities scheduled and our Mom seemed very comfortable when we visited.

Seemed like a very nice place with good services and a positive "feel" to it!

The grounds are amazing with huge windows to enjoy all the nature. Residents a friendly and active.

Our family is very pleased with the staff and their attention to detail for my Mother's care. Lots of activities and iteration! The facility is bright and cheerful! This has been a great choice for my Mother and family.

Felt inviting any really like the staff and facilities. Number one choice depending on availability when we take that step

I toured this facility while looking for a place for my Mother. This was my favorite place out of everyone that we looked at but we decided against it. One of the things I really liked is there is a very low turnover rate for the staff as well as the residents. Some of the people I met have been there since they opened. This facility was new and the rooms were very big. All of the rooms had a full kitchen, a big bedroom, and a big bathroom. The person who gave me the tour was awesome and knowledgeable. It’s a very quaint community and I would recommend this facility to other families for sure.

My grandmother moved into this community for a short stay respite following a hospitalization and was treated very well. She was fond of the executive director and dining director. Collectively they made her transition and stay comfortable and made her feel at home. There is longevity in the care staff and it shows. The dining director has been there for 17 years. While this home is undergoing some renovations that are needed, the care is superb and the residents are happy.

My brother lives here. So far, everything seems to be going okay and he seems to be adjusting well. I’m happy so far. Anytime I ask the nurse or any of the other staff, they know who he is and they always have something to say about their interaction with him. I really like everyone that I’ve met and talked to so far. The food is really good. We actually were able to eat a Thanksgiving meal there and a couple of times we’ve been, they’ve given us a slice of pie from the kitchen. My brother seems to like the food too. The lady that works in the kitchen tries her best to figure out what he likes and doesn’t like. She’s very observant about what he eats and tries to give him the food that he likes. The facility has been kept spotless every time I’ve been and the environment is just very pleasant every time you go in.

Brookdale Eau Gallie is a very nice Assisted Living Facility, and my mom was there for about 4 years. The staff and everybody there is so nice. It’s a big facility with about 80 beds. The director was very professional and all of the people that took care of her were very patient. The facility itself was very good and very clean. The rooms were decorated so beautifully and we were able to make it feel like home; they even used her room as a model, because it looked so wonderful. The food was very good and the menu had a lot of choices to choose from. On holidays, there were parties and everyone got cakes for their birthdays. There was always music or musicians coming by to perform for the residents as well. I would definitely recommend them to others.

My mom has settled in quite well here and she loves to brag about "Our Chef" and the wonderful food that he prepares. Mom likes her apt and she had started to take part in the activities and the field trips they offer. All the staff are very friendly and attentive to their residents. There's a very nice courtyard that mom can go out on and visit with the other residents too. I would definitely suggest scheduling a tour.

[Removed] who is now the sales coordinator met me and spent two hours talking and showing me around. She was really a sweet helpful person a real doll. Everything was really clean and the people were very nice. I got to ask several people how they liked living there and what the drawbacks were. They all were positive except for the outdoor parking. I got to see two of the 2 bedrooms which is what I would need. They were currently occupied but the people were pleased to have me look. I told [Removed] if and when I move in and she needs to show one she can call me any time and if I'm at home come over, or even just bring them over if I gave her a key to do so. I know it's hard to move into areas like that and seeing something that is already furnished helps you decide can I get most of my stuff in. Hearing the people talk about their places also helped. I put my name on the waiting list for a 2 bedroom and she will call when one becomes available. That is the largest problem they have, not enough of the larger 2 bedrooms. They have some in Assisted Living, but they can't rent those out to Independent Living, or I could move in next month since a lady is leaving for her daughter's. When you talk to people who build these types of living tell them they really need to do more 2 bedrooms for those of us coming out of large homes. Both of the ladies said they came from large homes and had to cut down a lot, but a 1 bedroom would have been out of the question. She said I am the first one on the list now since she just place her last 2 bedroom in Independent Living. I already knew that I would have to cut down on this 4 bedroom a huge amount, but I think it is time, and after I finish I think I'll be happier with less to care for. Oh yes, she did suggest renters insurance just in case. I was very pleased with everything and the fact that it is only 3.5 miles from where I currently live which keeps me in the end of town I want to stay in, close to things I use all the time. Time will tell as to when I can make the move, but if and when a 2 bedroom opens I will probably put the entrance fees down to hold it. I love the fact that for a very minor amount I can do that. They have dropped their entry fee from 2500 to 2000 with 500 for pets.\, well within my means as is the monthly fee, I was afraid of the cost, but they have kept it almost what it was when I first looked over 12 years ago. She also gave me a list of when their scheduled transportation runs, and the food offering for the past three days so I could get an idea of that. I was able to get all my questions answered either by her or one of the ladies who's apartments I visited. Now I am in a waiting period until I get a call, at which time, down goes the deposit, and I start moving, then have a partial estate sale by a reputable person, and sell the house. [Removed] gave me the card of the real estate person who is helping her find a house since they are now renting; and the information on a lady who can come now and then to help with yard work that my lazy yard man ignores and I wind up doing, so that is a real help as well and went beyond what her job is. I also got a copy of the She also gave me a copy of the September Community connections newsletter with the daily information so I have an idea of what activities are available. All in all I am more impressed after having done the tour then I was with just visiting a friend there, and once the work and settling in, the move is done I think I will be very happy there and so will my cats. Plus my two boys can stop worrying. I sm not sure they are going to like my doing it, but it won't impact them. The only item I will pay for monthly besides the apartment is the cable because I want TV, Computer and Phone, and they only carry the basic for TV. They even include a monitoring button like I currently wear so I can switch to that and save my fee on the AARP one I have now. All in all I think what I save in my current home with the move will cover at east half if not more of the apartment monthly fee. I know I'd have been cramped in a 1 bedroom, but a 2 will do fine especially with the porch and 5h3 other buildings that have library, pool, exercise room etc, or just nice places to sit and talk or read if you want to "get out" but not leave the area.

My mother is enjoying her time here in this community. It is working out well for her, and her needs. I know she is safe, and in good hands. They have a pleasant staff. They do a good job with the cleanness around the community. There are plenty of activities offered for the residents, and the food is delicious. She is doing great since her move to this community, and I would highly recommend it.
