Community Reviews
Nice Place, Nice Staff. Activities has room to improve.
reviewed on: 10/18/2015 by AnonymousThe apartment is really nice and the staff is very nice too. The only thing i would like to see improvement on is the dining area. it's in need of some remodeling and the dining staff could be friendlier. I would also like to see someone trying to be more active during activities too. Other than that, it is a good facility.
good for the most part
reviewed on: 04/07/2015 by AnonymousThey did a really good job meeting with us and taking the time to show us how things work and what to expect. However, once we got in the follow-up was not what it should have My mother-in-law can not see very well and they could accommodate her situation. For one, the activities are written down on a piece of paper that she can hardly read and she does not get the assistance she should to be able to know what's going on. Also, they have books to read, but no books on CD which would be good for her. There are a few things like that I feel they could do better to accommodate her situation. For the most part though it has been a good experience.
Brookdale Christown is a great choice
reviewed on: 06/09/2015 by AnonymousI moved my parents into Christown in the Independent Living apartments one month ago. The staff there is very friendly and welcoming. The facility is conveniently located, truly lovely, and well maintained inside and out. The front desk is very responsive, and maintenance issues in their apt. were addressed same-day. The dining room feels like a restaurant, and the food is very good! We searched for their new home for some time, as my parents are on a limited income. Christown offers the same amenities as other CCRCs we visited at half the cost. My parents are settling in nicely, and Mom is eager to join the painting class that just started. We are happy to know that the memory care unit is well maintained, cheery, and well staffed, as my Dad will likely need to move up to that unit in the future. I encourage others to tour the facility and see for yourselves. Our entire family is happy with my Mom's choice of CCRC.
Not for dad
reviewed on: 08/14/2013 by SuzanneChris ridge was fine, my father just didn't feel that he was old enough to live here and he was too independent for it. I'm sure that there were plenty of things for him to do and good activities he just chose to not participate in them. I thought that there was nothing wrong with it and it was very nice, he just didn't think he was ready to be in a place like this. He can be a little stubborn and its a little difficult staying on top of him and finding out what he's doing. It also may have been a little too far into Pheonix and he would have preferred to be more towards Scottsdale.
Need More Staff
reviewed on: 03/23/2015 by AnonymousI like the way the staff interacts with residents. They seem to be short staff had only 4 attendants watching all the ladies. Mom is really happy there and they did go up and beyond to get her in.
