We're leaning towards Brookdale Hoffman Estates. The first big, big plus is that this facility is right across from my mother's hospital and her doctors. The location is ideal.
As far as the facility itself, they offer breakfast every day. They have a choice of meal plans of 20 or 30 meals per month. It works well, and they seem to have independent living. You can purchase ala carte some of the necessary services that may apply, such as helping out with prescriptions and bathing.
The rooms seem very efficient. It should suffice for all her needs. They offer the necklace or bracelet for falls. They have a program (I think it's called, "Are You OK"), where they can tell if the tenant has left their unit daily. If they don't leave their unit, then they call just to do a wellness check. Then if they don't answer, they'll knock on the door. That feature is important, too.
They do have a beauty shop, and that's important for my mother. They have a fitness area and a library. I'm not so certain that she'll use those features, but they are available if she chooses to.
The staff was caring and friendly. I would be happy to have my mother in that environment. The facility is sufficient and clean. The dining room is very clean, very open, and pretty spacious.

Brookdale Hoffman Estates is a beautiful facility. It was nicely kept up. The food and people there were very nice. I liked it. The person who gave me the tour was very congenial. She was not aggressive in selling. She let me experience everything and showed me everything. So it was a very pleasant experience. The dining area was very clean and warm. The help was very caring, congenial, and efficient. They had many great activities. It's not a stale environment. It's an entertaining one. The activities were very invigorating, as far as I remember. They did not have laundry in each unit and on every floor.

Mom lives in Brookdale Hoffman Estates and it's wonderful. They have lots of activities for the residents. The facility is very well-maintained. They have a little workout area, a beauty shop, an outdoor area, programs, transportation, and doctors that come to the facility. They also have Walgreens that delivers medication to them free of charge.

Brookdale Hoffman Estates was very nice, and the staff was very informative. The apartments were good, but I would recommend they all have a walk-in shower. The room the staff showed me had a walk-in shower. They had puzzles and games. They showed me an exercise area, a restaurant, and a beauty salon. I saw a patio out the window. It was very clean. They have transportation to different stores and grocery stores.

The Brookdale Hoffman Estates is excellent in supportable services, cleanliness, dining, activities. The administration is responsive and superior. My mother's apartment was roomy and well appointed. The fees are very competitive. Certainly the residents receive the best services in the industry in our families opinion. We had a great experience at Brookdale.

Brookdale Hoffman Estates has lots and lots of activities for people and there's a lot of living options. They are very knowledgeable, and they had a good setup for taking their seniors around the community. The rooms were spacious and well-designed.

Brookdale Hoffman Estates was at the top of my list. It's a very pleasant, clean, bright, and happy place. They've got very pleasant people that showed us around. I was in the hallways and I spoke with some residents that said they were very happy with their choice to live there. I like the fact that it had not only independent living, but assisted living as well, and that there was a hospital that you could look out the window and see the hospital nearby. The location was really good. They had good size rooms and pleasant views out the window. I like the way the floorplan just kind of flowed very nicely and comfortably. The staff was excellent. It was rather a large place and there were long hallways to get to places and there's a lot of walking. Elevators were available, but it still seemed like there were some pretty long distances between places that you would use, like from the rooms to the dining room and things like that.

We moved into Brookdale Hoffman Estates yesterday. It's excellent. The staff is wonderful. The room is very good. We're in an apartment with two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, and one bathroom. The amenities are a little bit negotiable, breakfast is complimentary, and the meals are included. Usually they include twenty meals, but we have thirty. They have bingo, entertainment, and bus service.

I have had a lot of confidence & respect for the people who operate this facility. I’ve felt this way from the first time I visited Brookdale Hoffman Estates. I was looking for a place for my 87 year old uncle to live without having to maintain his own property. This facility was definitely the answer. All of the personnel that I have met & talked with, have been attentive, courteous & very competent in the positions. Always helpful when I call with questions or ask fir help with my uncle. Both my uncle & myself have been well satisfied with this facility. Also, the residents here seem to enjoy living at Brookdale Hoffman Estates. Every resident we met early on, had nothing to say but positive things regarding the facility. I would highly recommend having a relative or even myself ( at some point in time ) living here.

I can highly recommend the staff at Brookdale Hoffman Estates. They have done a very professional job managing during the pandemic as well as normal situations. Our loved one entered Brookdale about 3 years ago needing no additional services but as her needs change, we can count on Mike and Tori and Maggie and Dan everyone else at Brookdale to put their heads together and develop care plans that fit the needs at that time. The residents are also wonderful and we love visiting and seeing their programs with our relative. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

I have lived at Brookdale Hoffman Estates for 2 1/2 years now and love every minute of it! This is a place you can feel safe and well cared for. There is always someone here to help you and help you right away. I enjoy the freedom and friends I have here. There are always opportunities to gather with friends to play a game, take a walk or just sit and talk. The facility is very clean, housekeeping is wonderful. I truly appreciate everything they have to offer, from on site doctors and therapy to transportation to doctor appointments and shopping, great activities department too. The scenery and atmosphere is just beautiful. I feel peaceful and content being here.

This facility is very nice. The tour left me with a great impression. I did not interact with any staff other than Steve W, who gave me the tour. The price seems to be right in the ballpark. I will definitely keep this one in mind when the time comes. I like that it's right across the street from the hospital, too. I wish the storage areas would have been on the same floor as the unit. Parking is uncovered.

I visited Brookdale Hoffman Estates, that was the best tour we had, and it was the most cost-effective solution for us. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly. The amenities were fine, they did a good job showing us around, they have six different floor plans, and so there are a lot of choices. They have a full schedule of activities, which is good.

I moved into Brookdale, and I was extremely impressed. It's absolutely beautiful and 10 minutes from my granddaughter and 25 minutes from my grandson. The people are so warm, friendly, and I couldn't ask for anything more. I have a beautiful studio apartment. I love it; it's perfect for me, but they also have one-bedrooms and two-bedrooms. My apartment has a lovely kitchen with a dishwasher and cabinets, and it's a little smaller than a one-bedroom but much larger than an executive efficiency. They go out to dinner, casino, and movies, and we had a beautiful reception outside by the lake. I'm very pleased.

The staff at Brookdale Hoffman Estates was extremely helpful, kind, and patient. To me, that was the biggest thing. They have a lot of services for people who need care. I’m totally independent, but it was the convenience of having everything under one roof that I really liked and the staff. My room has everything that I need. I have a one-bedroom, one-bath with a little kitchen. It’s comfortable. I thought it was going to be too small, but it isn’t at all. The grounds are beautiful. I have a pond and a golf course outside my window, so it’s beautiful. They have buses that will take people shopping. This feels like home to me.

The apartments at Brookdale Hoffman Estates were beautiful, brand new and remodeled, but the facility had an older feel to it. Steve assisted me and he was phenomenal. He tried everything he could to get us in there. The building and the common living space were older -- it's kind of dreary when you walk in. The overall area needed to be updated. The food was cafeteria style and wasn't really good.

The independent living part of Brookdale Hoffman Estates is absolutely gorgeous and feels like a 5-star hotel. The rooms were superb, roomy, and large. The staff had hospitality skills as if you were in a 4-star hotel. The dining area was beautiful, and the food was very good. They have a ton of activities, so you can be as busy as you want to be. It’s very expensive, and the location is convenient because it’s on my way to work.

Brookdale was very nice, but it was really too far out from where I live. It’s conveniently next to a hospital, but it’s too remote for my family. The room is very well-appointed, they have nice public spaces, and active programs.

We found this community for my in-laws; however, they haven't moved in yet. The sales staff who I met there all seemed friendly and accommodating. When I saw the place, it was clean, and it had a friendly atmosphere. If I have to look for a place to live, I would probably live there myself. It just looked like a nice place, a place I wouldn't mind living myself. The rooms were clean and well-kept. It was pretty spacious for an elderly couple. The kitchen was kind of small, though. The dining area was nice.
