Brookdale Brandon, We toured this community which would have been closer to our home. We did like the staff and they answer our questions on the care that would have been given. We were impressed with the community. It did appear to have a nice menu with a nice variety. We would recommend this for families for the care and great value.

My mom is happy, she has made a lot of friends since her move here. She likes the people and their personalities, she loves the staff. Her apartment is comfortable and they provide housekeeping to help her maintain it. She mainly cooks her meals in her apartment but eats one meal a day provided by the community. She brags about how good they are to her friends. Overall she is happy, and so am I.

My mother is still adjusting to the community since her move into the Brookdale Kenner. The staff is all very friendly and helpful, they treat people the way they should be treated. My mom is happy and so are we.

My loved one has only been here a short time, but so far I'm very impressed with the level of care and service offered at Brookdale Ridgmar! We had a disappointing experience with another Brookdale facility, but the staff at this location have really blown me away! Everyone is so friendly and always ready to help! They've been very accommodating, and I get the sense that they want to make sure my loved one is somewhere that fits her particular needs.

Before making the tough decision to move my 89 yr old father here from out of state due to his advancing dementia, I visited many facilities in the area, and asked a lot of questions. I wanted to find a place where Dad would feel comfortable and at home, and where he would be safe and well cared for 24/7. Facilities that were not dedicated to memory care dropped off my list quickly, as did those that did not have an RN on site 24/7. I asked for references and called them - and appreciate the honesty of those I spoke with. Dad has been here for ten months now and I am thankful that we brought him here when we did, and most importantly that we chose Saddlebrook, for so many reasons. First and foremost are the people and the caring, friendly, "homey" community atmosphere they foster every day. Everyone on staff understands how to positively interact with those affected with memory loss and dementia, and I've learned so much from observing and talking with them. I also appreciate their willingness to "go the extra mile" and work with families and residents when the going gets rough, and let's face it - there are lots of rough days with dementia! Staff is trained to work with the many behavioral, communication and mood issues as well as the physical issues prevalent with dementia and the elderly. I've always been able to approach staff with questions or requests, and they have been excellent in keeping me informed as well. Dad is always clean and nicely dressed and groomed, and I was happily surprised to learn that he doesn't have to leave to get his haircut or go to the dentist or for regular doctor visits - they come to Saddlebrook regularly. On a larger scale, Dad had to go to the hospital for surgery and then to rehab this summer and it was very difficult for him in those places (esp. rehab) that were not focused and trained for patients with dementia. He was miserable and I was at my wits end after 2 weeks of rehab so I approached the management team at Saddlebrook and asked for their assistance to enable me to bring Dad back home to Saddlebrook as early as possible. They were wonderfully supportive and helpful and as soon as Dad was back at Saddlebrook his mood improved dramatically. He is back to participating in their outings and activities and is doing well now. I drop in to visit at various times as my erratic work schedule permits, and I always find the common areas as well as Dad's room to be clean and tidy. There is no "institutional" smell or feel to the place. The living room areas are beautifully decorated and filled with comfortable recliners. I was worried about whether Dad would like the food and I no longer have any concerns. He looks forward to his meals and enjoys them. I highly recommend Saddlebrook, and I appreciate the compassionate care they provide every day.

Brookdale West University is a beautiful community for Active and Non-Active seniors. I am thoroughly enjoying my new home. The rooms are very spacious. The food is delicious and can be eaten in a beautifully decorated and spacious dining room. There is even a fancy Bistro for take out or to just sit, eat and be merry. My new neighbors are very nice to spend time with. And last but not least, the grounds are gorgeous. There are fish ponds and lots of lush greenery. It is truly a place where one can honestly say, "there is no place like home."

The staff are very professional and hands on with each resident. They offer daily activities as well as outings. The food is good and they have a good variety. The community is beautiful inside and out. The price is good for what you get. When you compare this community to other communities this one is the best in every way. I would recommend this community.

I am glad to see that my friend is doing good here. She does like the activities and loves to hear the music that they offer. the community is always very clean and taken care of. She seems to like the food and the variety of the meals. She does enjoy playing cards. I would recommend thecommunity highly for over all great care for a loved one.

We are very pleased with this community, and they have done for us. My mother is doing well, and I'am satisfied with her move to this community. Everybody chips in around this community. Everyone is always willing to help with whatever you ask of them. They do a good job with the cleanliness of the community, everything is very well-kept. There are many activities offered for the residents. She is very pleased with the meals, the food is very good. I would not hesitate to recommend this community, it is a very nice place.

This is a nice community. The staff is great, but we needed more care then what they could give her. I did see the restaurant and it seems very nice and maintained. They did not have the memory care that we were needed This would not be our choice for memory care. This is a community where residents can take care of some of the needs on there own. We would suggest that families take a tour to see if this is what they are looking for.

I felt like I was in the right place for my mom when I entered the buliding. You know you just have that "feeling" that everything will be alright if I leave my mom here. It's a hard decision to leave your mom in the care of someone else isn't it? The apartments are just big enough. Certainly not the 2500 sq. ft home that mom is used to but then she can't take care of that much space anyway. Three meals a day plus snacks and ice cream everywhere. That is more than the piece of toast and tea mom made for herself and swore that she was just stuffed! Plus activities to keep her busy each day instead of watching Dr. [Removed] and Judge [Removed]! A nurse in the building 24/7. That's a plus isn't it? I think that you won't be disappointed.

I visited about four other facilities for my mother, and Brookdale Memorial City was a perfect fit and within our budget. It checked off ALL our boxes. Thrilled!

Very nice community. However, it has a weird floor plan in the apartments. The people were nice and helpful and they gave us a nice tour. I was really impressed with the dining area. It was very nice. It was just to far.

Love everything about it!!

We're all so pleased with Earl R's new home at Brookdale Gig Harbor!We talk to him daily and every time he has praise for some aspect of his new environment.Usually it's about the food,and I must agree from my experience,the quality of the food and the flexibility of your dining hours can't be beat.The wait staff is always so friendly and helpful,offering suggestions on what to order.He got a haircut yesterday and "it was so much better than at his previous residence".He always has something positive to say and for that we so thankful we found Brookdale Gig Harbor.Our thanks to the entire staff and a happy Thanksgiving.

The Brookdale Gig Harbor team is the Best !

I am very happy with the care that my father is getting here. We love the staff and how the clean the community is all the time.. He has special needs on eating and the staff is very helpful. They do offer him activities, but he is not participating. He walked into this community and made the decision that was where he wanted to live. I highly recommend the great care to other families and the good value.
