We did a tour of Brookdale Dogwood Creek. That was actually our top choice. They were super friendly, and very helpful. The price point was a little bit higher upon talking to the people, and they admitted it was a little bit more expensive than the price point that I had initially requested, so it wasn't going to be a viable option for us, but it was a really great facility. We were immediately greeted by someone. They were aware that we had an appointment. They took us back, gave us a tour of the facility, and let us interact with some of the people that stayed there so we could see the kind of activities that they do. The director that we met, she was extremely helpful, and answered all of our questions very, very accurately. So overall, it was a great experience touring that facility. The living quarters, I believe all of them were single person facilities. They did have everything safely blocked off in terms of the exit. There are alarms that would go off if the person were to accidentally exit the facility, and plenty of attendants around. They showed us the food area, and what people were being served; everything was very fresh looking. So overall, everything was very good in that regard.

I would rate Brookdale Dogwood Creek very high. They have been wonderful, very supportive, and very, very good to my father-in-law and our family. He is in the memory care, and his room is great. It's a nice size. It's got a twin bed, a little desk, a rocking chair, a separate closet, a nice bathroom that's large enough to get a wheelchair in, and a shower that is very large. I got him a shower chair and all that good stuff too. They clean his room all the time. You walk in and it just looks like you're going to a hotel. It's just really, really nice and upscale. They have a patio with tables and chairs, and there is a garden area. It's been so hot lately, so we haven't gone out there. He has a large picture window in his room that points out to the patio and everything.

Brookdale Dogwood Creek is the place we selected for my mom. We are still in the process of moving, but they have made it a wonderful experience and accommodated us in every way they could. My mom is qualified for assisted living but because she is recovering from a stroke, we are going to start out in memory care. The energy and the focus that they have on people with special needs is amazing. She has aphasia and not dementia, so she is very aware of what's going, and they were able to grasp all of it. She knows what's going on, it's just communicating back her words are scrambled, so it is mistaken for dementia or Alzheimer's, but it's actually not and the person is very well aware of what's going on. They were able to grasp that. The staff has just bent over backwards. Honestly, they're very focused on the people that live there and what's best for them. I'm forever grateful for that. Their food is delicious. We actually looked at the facility before her stroke, and I have looked at a lot of property, so I'm very impressed. There's a lot of energy, that's why I was choosing the memory care from Anthony who is the activities director on the memory care side. They're just very focused on keeping everybody going, especially with COVID-19. They're just very focused on taking care of people. They also know the people that are living there; they know them by name, and that's a big deal because a lot of facilities I go to don't seem like they know the patients. These people know them by name and it's very impressive. The food is good. The cleanliness is a five and the layout is a four.

My mother is a resident of Brookdale Dogwood Creek. The staff is very friendly. I feel like they're taking care of her because she's always dressed appropriately and seems happy when I visit. They can always give me an updated report on what's going on with her. It's a beautiful community and the staff is well-trained. I'm confident that they're giving the care that my mother needs, and the residents are always engaged. She's on a shared suite, and she and her roommate each have separate bedrooms that are spacious. Her bedroom has a chair and a large closet, they have a large bathroom that they share, but each one has her own vanity. The community also have private rooms, an indoor swimming pool, a nice fitness center and a beauty salon on site. They take the residents out weekly, and they have specific activities for the memory care.
