Community Reviews
mostly good
reviewed on: 08/22/2015 by AnonymousSome of the staff at Emeritus at Lexington Gardens (now Brookdale) has been really good. However, mother at one point got away from them and was unsupervised for too long during which time she had a fall and got injured. I was not too happy about that, but things have gone well since that incident.
I like them, I think they are doing a pretty good job overall.
reviewed on: 08/28/2015 by AnonymousI like them, I think they are doing a pretty good job overall. It's nice and clean, and the staff is friendly. The food could be a little better in quality. When they have fresh ingredients the meals seem good, but they do tend to get a lot of frozen or canned and processed foods, that aren't as great. I felt like the price was pretty comparable to the other places I looked at.
Seems to Have Adjusted Well
reviewed on: 01/09/2017 by AnonymousMy father seems to be doing pretty well since his move to this community. He seems to be enjoying it so far, and I'am satisfied with his move here. I have not had any problems with the staff. They have been friendly and polite. My father isn't into activities very much, but they do have some offered for the residents. He says there is some room for improvement in the meal area. Overall he is doing pretty well at this community, and I would recommend it.
We Feel Like We Made The Best Choice For Our Loved One
reviewed on: 03/26/2021 by TGAside from the Covid stuff, there's lot of rules in place because of that, they seem to be pretty competent. They provide everything our loved one needs, and he seems to be happy here. He's fully mentally competent, so he would tell us if he thought something was wrong. They provide meals, laundry, activities, and they have a nurse there 24 hours a day. So if anything comes up, they have someone to assess the situation before they would call an ambulance or anything. They do a good job here.
Would chose them again!
reviewed on: 08/30/2013 by LeeThey're very friendly, the common areas are very clean, it's my uncle and I have not been down there since he moved in but I think things must be going pretty well and the staff must be pretty good because he's not complaining. They are transporting him to and from the VA which is critical for him, they are helping him with his medications, keeping him on his medications and supervising him taking them. My first impressions of the place were very positive, I was really impressed when we visited and asked the questions, with tthe proficiency of the staff and the cleanliness of the place. i have no reservations or hesistations about him being there. If I had to do it all over again or had other relatives that needed to go somewhere I would pick Lexington again.
