The Opal Senior Living

Our family had an in person tour, it was during covid which made it pretty limited. We were not able to see the apartments, however we were able to meet with the director and head nurse. Both were very responsive and truthful and honest about what their facility could and could not provide for our loved one.

The staff are nice and helpful for the family and residents.

I would tell others that the staff are very responsive. My father in law really enjoys the meals that are served here. They do have residents who speak Spanish and they are actively looking for employees who speak Spanish as well which is great. We would recommend to others looking and already have.

Looks good on vr tour.

Sometimes the communication is not that great it is lacking at times, but the facility itself is very nice. It is expensive but we do think it is a nice enough community and we would recommend it. Some of the staff are absolutely amazing. We love the size of the community it has that more intimate feel to it. Our loved one is difficult when it comes the care services, we wish they would handle our loved one a little better.

When we first visited Brookdale Bluewater community we really liked how clean it was, and how spacious it was. There are a bunch of diverse gathering rooms for the residents to go and hang out in which was nice. The rooms are a little more on the smaller size, but are still adequate.

I think they try, but I don't know that they have all the resources to give good care to the residents. Room sizes and layout of the community are average. They have limited outdoor space. The food is adequate. We stay because the location is perfect for us.

We met with [name removed] and [name removed] and both set us at ease immediately. They really give Belvedere that feel of a family environment. The cost was higher than we feel our budget may allow but we need to be sure we are factoring in medical assistance at other facilities to get a true apples to apples cost. The room was also smaller than what we would like. Other than that we really liked it.

Liked this one, [name removed] gave us a lot of good info on how to look into benefits at VA and Medicaid. Was clean, lots of friendly staff, talked to a couple of the residents and they loved it there. The shared apts were very tight, not sure if that's a solution but Memory Care is expensive. Like that they can attend to all phases of my dad's aging without the need to move again later.

After a nice tour, we determined that this is too small for our needs (very social husband/wife); we found staff to be very caring. The residents seemed content, and the facility looked very clean and welcoming. A good fit for someone wanting a more intimate setting. I especially liked that the building surrounded a landscaping courtyard, which provided a nice view and windows down one side of each hallway. This created a bright environment.

Was very friendly and welcoming; a little too "open" for my husband's tastes.

Very nice

I went on a tour here and the staff was helpful. They were not pushy. They answered all of my questions. The people are super friendly and the cost was great. The appearance was faded and the lighting was dark, I recommend families tour many places so they can compare.

I took a tour here. It’s a pretty nice place and they have a large amount of residents that can still do things on their own so there are definitely a variety of things to do. My mom wasn’t that interested, though, because she wanted a bit more support. My sister kind of liked the way it was laid out, though. We went on a Sunday and the guy that walked with us and took us on a tour was very helpful and nice. He took a lot of time to talk with us, show us the rooms, and answer our questions. I don’t think it was the right fit for my Mom’s needs, but it would be fine for someone that’s looking for something independent.

Rooms seem quite small

We toured quite a few communities and this one seemed to be on the older side than most of the other ones we toured. It was not as inviting it could have used some updating. The staff was nice very friendly very informative on the tour We did not eat here but from what we saw the food looked good and smelled very good.

I was primarily looking for a community in a convenient location for me to travel to. I had many options to consider and this community was actually not convenient for me. It would be suitable for another family.

My mom liked this community when she visited. She said the staff were nice and the community was clean. This community did seem to offer some nice amenities and activities.

Although I did not end up physically touring this facility, I spoke at length to [Removed] there, who provided a wealth of information and advice as to the attention given for assisted living at their residence. Compared to the other facilities in my search, it was evident that their location is very focused on providing the utmost care for and attention to the needs to their residents. If you are looking for a high standard of assistance for yourself or a loved one, I encourage you to include this Brookdale residence in your search, and hear from [Removed] himself of their commitment to resident care AND peace of mind for the family and loved ones.

We toured this community for my mother in law, and her needs. Everything went well, and everyone was very kind to my family, and I. The community looked good, you could tell they do a good job with the cleanliness. Our tour guide was great, and very informative. The experience went well, but this was not the facility for my mother in law, and her needs.
