issue
reviewed on: 09/09/2015 by AnonymousI haven't heard any major complaints about Brookdale Casa Whittier. When she first moved in there was an issue with stealing. Everyone has keys to the rooms, maintenance, housekeeping, etc. She had $200 in her purse and then went it get it and it was gone. I also know of a neighbor that was saving up for something and her money was stolen also. She doesn't have Alzheimer's either, so that is pretty concerning. They have a lot of activities at this facility available if she chooses to participate. Overall it's been a good experience.
Great Food!
reviewed on: 04/01/2014 by Loved OneFor the price they charge, the rooms seem too small. There's room for some furniture, but the rooms are too small for two people - especially the bathrooms. The food is very good though, and we would give it a 5! We really liked this place because it's small and we were very impressed with Sharon Crowe. She's a very nice and caring lady, and we are still impressed with her to this day!
Safe and secure
reviewed on: 12/08/2013 by Craig HarveyNeeded a place that was single story and had staff 24/7 for Mom. Was living in too much house, too often by herself. This place was recommended by "A Place for Mom" and my sister knew of it as it was nearby to her house. My Mom visited and found the place acceptable and the staff very friendly and helpful. She is still adjusting to living around people her own age (she insists they are all older than her). She is gradually settling in and realizing that these people are her generation and since it is an assisted living facility and not a convalescent or rehabilitation facility, the residents are more like her than not.
