Community Reviews
Worth taking a look at!!
reviewed on: 11/14/2016 by AnonymousI did not get to take a tour of this community as once I spoke to them we realized dad would be better in another community. This community is more for assisted living and we needed memory care. They were great and upfront making sure that we had all the information we needed to make the right choice for dad. They cared more about the resident and not the money.
We could not have made a better choice
reviewed on: 02/02/2014 by Sue BrowningWe could not be happier with Emeritus at Bear Creek. As soon as my sister and I walked in the door, we were almost positive that we had found the perfect place for our father. Once we had completed the tour, our mind was made up. We were able to put a deposit on a lovely assisted living apartment and make arrangements for Dad to start out in skilled care so he could acclimate to the change in altitude. Everyone has been wonderful and they treat him like family. He will be able to transition from skilled care to assisted living without leaving the building. The food is excellent and he is able to enjoy a glass of wine with his meals if he chooses. There is a very diverse mix of residents and a large number of men so he will have some partners in crime. I would recommend Emeritus at Bear Creek to anyone with a family member that needs care whether it be a bit of assistance or skilled nursing.
A Different Level of Care
reviewed on: 04/10/2017 by AnonymousI had a helpful and friendly person give me a tour and provide me with useful resources. I felt they were fantastic people to work with. They were willing and always offering to help me find a good fit for my parents. It did not feel like a sales experience. I liked that all the Brookdale's work together. They provided a different level care that did not fit my parent's needs.
The best place ever!
reviewed on: 03/22/2017 by AnonymousThis facility and its staff is the best! I had my family member at another facility that didn't take care of her at all and had to move her within one hour and John was so accommodating. My family member is happy and well taken care of.
Definitely recommend
reviewed on: 10/05/2021 by SusanWe chose Bear Creek because we were were not happy with his previous facility. It is very friendly, when you walk in the people are always in a group doing things, not just sitting by themselves. They are very active and always doing something. It is very easy for him to make friends here and he is very happy. I would definitely recommend them.
