My dad is at Brookdale Charlotte East. So far, he's not had any complaints, so I think he is OK. He said the food is pretty good, and he likes it. He said the staff is pretty helpful all the time, and he has no complaints with them. They've had a few cases of Covid over there, so I dont think he is doing a whole lot of interaction with a lot of people over there at present. He also talks to me about some people that he has met. The only complaint that I can think of, and it is really not a complaint, is that he only has basic television and sometimes he wants something on the big screen downstairs. There's only one TV down there and that's pretty much on a first come, first serve basis. So, they could probably use another wide screen for sports or something like that because he is a very sports-oriented person. It is very expensive there.

Brookdale Charlotte East is a very large area, and it's nice. The residents were watching television during my visit, and there were no other activities going on at the time. Their dining area was really nice and the things we would need like therapy, OT and PT, all of those can be accommodated there rather than at the VA center which is truly a plus. I got to see their private room which was the only vacant one at the time, but they also have semi-private ones. It was a clean community.

Brookdale Charlotte East assisted living looked pretty nice and I enjoyed the tour. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. The rooms and dining area were really nice. Everything was neat and in order. They got plenty of activities. They had a fitness room, piano, one big room where people gather, and a barber shop. It's pretty ideal for me.

My mother was at Brookdale Charlotte East in their assisted living, but her dementia got worse very quick, so we had to hire sitters 24/7, which was terribly expensive. We also had to stay for another week because of a quarantine due to the flu. Some of the staff members was just there for the paycheck, but others would bend over backward to help you. The food was OK. It's a clean and beautiful facility, but it was a very awkward stay.

I got a tour of Brookdale Charlotte East and they showed me all the common areas and the rooms. The room that I saw had a nice view. It was fine. They have a chapel, a library, and a big common area with a TV. They have a calendar of activities with things listed. The staff that I met was very knowledgeable and she knows her job. One thing I noticed about it is that compared to the other ones I saw, this one is an older building. It's a pretty large building that's secure because it has a gate around it. Then you have to buzz to get in, so that was very good for security.

Our visit with Brookdale Charlotte East was very favorable. We went on a tour. We spoke to some employees. They were very nice and helpful. I talked to a gentleman whose house was in there, and had nothing but good to say about it. It was a nice and clean facility.

Brookdale Charlotte East was the same as the other Brookdale; all of them were the same. Their rooms were beautiful, and their dining facilities were beautiful.

Brookdale Charlotte East was a lovely community with lovely people living there. The staff was very pleasant and very helpful. They were able to show me everything they could about the community. I liked that the place was in a very nice location and a quiet neighborhood. In fact, it was like a bird sanctuary. They had apartments suited for seniors needing assistance. Their dining area was gorgeous all the way around too. I was not able to try their food though. They had all kinds of wonderful activities that were stimulating like playing cards. Plus, they had a bus that can take them to beautiful places. All in all, it was a great community in my opinion.

I have eaten in Brookdale Charlotte East, and the food was OK. I would rate the food about a 3. They had attentive staff, but it did not seem as relaxed. They had smaller bedrooms and smaller kitchens. The dining room was very pleasant. They don't have a buffet. You order from the menu of the day, and it was pretty tasty. I was impressed with its accessibility and security.

I like the flexibility. You can stay there 30 days after a hospital. They had private rooms and things of that nature, and it seems like the care is quality. They have different room sizes for the different requirements of the folks that are staying there. It was a brief stay, but we did tour the kitchen area and the dining area. They also had a couple areas were you could do group activities, and it was nice. The whole place is clean. The staff seemed to be courteous and knowledgeable. They also seemed to be helpful.

We haven't made any decision yet, but this community is a good candidate. It has a family environment setting. Everyone gets to know everyone quickly. My mother spent three days there; she was on their "stay-cation," and she drew a lot of attention from the residents. The residents there were extremely friendly. The staff was excellent, as well as the meals, their dining area, and the servers. The main thing is its private pay, as at the majority of these places.

It was convenient for me. I knew someone who was already living there; they had been there for a few years and they were really pleased. The room is fine and there is a variety of food to choose from. They have activities every day at 2:00 pm. They had bingo several times, people come in for entertainment and they had a bible study mom can go to.
