Priority Life Care

My mother and I toured this facility after a few others, and got an immediate sense of the camaraderie and commitment to making residents feel like family. If you're looking for a place to feel welcomed and looked after, this would be a great choice. Also, beautiful, open feeling inside, and large, screened pool with cabana and morning shade outside on attractive grounds. The living quarters are roomy and include a screened-in balcony, but, negative for us, no oven, stove, microwave, or even suitable space for a microwave. There IS a full kitchen on the main floor, for those residents who'd like to cook every now and then, but it was unfortunate to us to have that as the option. I would like to visit my mom and cook her yummy items she can feast on when she doesn't feel like eating with the others--that's kind of a tradition for us, so it's important. However, for those residents who have no interest in cooking and just want to be fed, it wouldn't be a problem. That's really the only thing we didn't really like; other than that, Pennie and the rest of the staff were wonderful, and many of the residents came up to us of their own accord and told us how much they enjoyed living there, and how welcomed she would be, which was a great indication to us of resident satisfaction for those who want to be a part of things. Very impressive place, and I'd recommend it to visit--especially if cooking is not important. Aside from that, and a very small gym (two pieces of the same equipment), it's a wonderful place.

Very nice facility, but too pricy for us. I think a one bedroom is $3800/month for independent living.

Residents sitting out front seemed engaged and talked to each other. For someone who's looking for staff involvement, this won't be a good choice as they seem to be more like a Senior Apartment type of place. They expect the residents to check on each other ... staff won't do that. Even the emergency call button goes to "Great Call" - an independent company. The amenities look pretty good ...bed and towel laundry and cleaning once a week; residents do their other laundry themselves at free machines; 3 meals a day; snacks put out during the day; Restaurant style service. For someone who's primarily looking for a senior apartment with little involvement from the staff this is a good choice. Approximately 125 residents and 20 staff (plus additional evening servers at the restaurant). Average resident age is probably about 80 with the range being about 56 - 99.

The community was very nice and very clean. The whole place was nice and very well kept. The people were outstanding in helping us with whatever we needed. They just did not offer memory care and that is what we needed.

All of the staff that greeted us during our tour where very friendly and had lots of great information to give me about there community. I would defiantly suggest that they have a stronger communication line. What I mean by that is when I had asked who there main point of contact was I could not get a straight answer. I think that is important in case of emergency or if I needed to get a hold of my mother.

Tanglewood units look outdated and, although they had some great move-in specials, those were limited to specific, less desirable units. The only two bedroom, two bath they have was in the assisted living area, which they said could be used by my parents without assisted living add-ons. Maybe it is not unusual but I thought it strange that the assisted living and independent residence are on the same floor, with separate side-by side dining rooms.

I toured this community for my mother and her needs. Everything went well, and they were very kind. The community looked good, everything looked nice and clean. The staff was friendly and kind. It was a good experience, but not the community for us.

This community has three floors and I did not like that the assisted living residents were put on this floor. They have their own dining room and are separated from the independent living residents. The surroundings were nice and the people I met were nice.

My mother is doing as well as can be expected here at this community. They are providing her with good care overall. It is still a work in progress for us here at this community. She is taking some to adjust to the community.

I had a pretty pleasant tour of this community. The community looked nice and well maintained. The staff I met was knowledgeable and kind. They were also informative and answered my questions. It was a nice tour, but it wasn't the one for my father and his needs. This is a good community for the right type person.

Me and my loved ones were able to take a tour of this community. It was nice and had a lot of natural air. Also the staff that took us on the tour seemed knowledgeable and friendly. Me and my family just felt that it lacked the homey feeling.

This community immediately gave me a bad feeling. This community is better for people that are not very active and can still take care of themselves for the most part. They do offer some activities. The food choices that they give are healthy. I would recommend this community, but only to people that have loved ones that can not do for themselves.

As I viewed the community on my tour it appeared to be in need of remodeling. Otherwise, the tour went good. I have an understanding of what is provided here. From what I saw it looked like good interaction between the residents and staff.

I rated them a 3 only because they were not set up to handle assisted living issues. As a residential facility it is 5 stars. A large open facility allows residents to enjoy live entertainment from any of the 3 floors. The dining room looked like a 5 star restaurant. There were many activities/functions for all to enjoy.

I have nothing bad to say about Brookdale Jensen Beach it was a nice place for the short time that my brother was there. He had a situation that did require him to leave but the staff just was not able to care for him and that is understandable. The community is a very nice and well kept place everything looks really nice. Staff was nothing but helpful and really kind to us. They were very easy going and really easy to talk to about my concerns. One of the residents has mention to us on the tour that the food is amazing it is so good that they have all gained weighted since moving there I thought that was nice to hear. Overall it was a nice experience.

Small rooms with disappointingly small windows, and only an ok level of maintenance. Very good food and nice people, but the basic accomodations fees are much to high for what’s provided.

They went out of their way to see us right away because we were in a hurry to find a place for my loved one. They were super accommodating. They just couldn't be nicer. Whenever I go visit, the staff seems fine.

Things are not going well at Brookdale. We are having meal problems. The meals are not warm. My Mother gets room service for breakfast and dinner and the meals are cold and not hot. We have relayed this information to the nursing and dining staff (even the Dining Director) and they can't seem to get it right. If we don't get this problem resolved, I will be pulling Mom out. Some of the staff definitely needs to go. Everyone is nice there and she likes it. It's just a problem with the meals.

We agreed to come in and they guaranteed two months free. They would not let me have the room until the end of the month though, but still made me pay for the month. They said we would get that money back, but it was a total lie.

We toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. I wasn't particularly impressed by this place, but I wouldn't say it was bad. It just seemed a bit run down, and we were looking for something more upscale for our loved one.
