Brookdale Fort Collins Assisted Living

Monti

Brookdale Fort Collins is a great place, and they're doing a great job. The place is clean, neat, and organized. The rooms are great, and they're very accommodating. They've really been great to work with and in communicating with us one-on-one.

Brookdale felt like a good place, and I liked the people. The apartment was really nice and comfortable. The rooms were nice and clean and had a little kitchenette.

Brookdale was probably more upscale than the other place I visited because everything was newer and it was decorated really nicely. They provided more care for the people who needed medication on a daily basis or special medical assistance as well. There were nurses on sight. The staff was really nice, very friendly, and helpful, and took care of the seniors. There was a Catholic service going on or a religious service. I felt like the facility was quite nice, but it had a different atmosphere because you could tell that the elderly were more sick.

My mother is in Brookdale Fort Collins in her own one-bedroom studio apartment that has a mini kitchen, although she cannot use any of that. They have activities every day in all kinds of areas. They are patient, caring, and try to be as involved as they can with her as much as she allows. She is a very private person and does not like a lot of interruption. The only negative about it is the facility changed staff. However, in all fairness, Brookdale has been bringing it up to its standards. So, even though I do not like it, I can understand the need to change the staff fairly regularly. Mother loves the food. They expanded the facility, and it is just excellent and very clean.

Brookdale was a nice place with lots of amenities and nice rooms. The staff was very polite, courteous, and knowledgeable. The dining area was nice.

The nurses at Brookdale Fort Collins (Formerly Sterling House of Fort Collins) are extremely helpful and caring and they're taking really good care of my mother. They let me know anytime something happens out of the ordinary or regular updates on how well she is doing or how poorly or if she is struggling with something in particular. Everything is kept current and I'm just very happy with what they're doing for us. She has been there since the end of August. She's in a studio apartment. She's got her own little refrigerator and sink area, her own bathroom and shower and closet. We had to bring her own furniture, a bed, a little dining table, and TV. It's nice sized. She has her dog there. She walks with the help of a walker, but it's very limited movement. She has occupational and physical therapy working with her. She has to get up and walk to the dining room and to the activities room. They have movies and get-togethers with the other residents there. She stays active but on a limited basis.

My mother moved in after a rehab stay. They took several days to arrange staff to cover her needs. Because she did not get the services she was supposed to (and charged for) she found a way to manage for herself and returned to independent living (for much less cost). The quality and quantity of food is a joke and they are extremely short-staffed to provide the care that they charge. There was a maintenance issue that took several days to get fixed. It was inexcusable to leave a resident without a working bathroom for days. Very poor value for price.

I saw sample rooms at Brookdale Fort Collins (Formerly Sterling House of Fort Collins) and the one thing that I was a little worried was the pricing structure. It was very nice, and I found the people that worked there to be very nice. I would've had no problem there, but it just didn't measure up with what we ultimately found. They had plenty of activities, and it seemed like a really great place, but they need to reassess their pricing structures. The pricing changes depending on the things that you wouldn't even know are going to happen.

The staff were very helpful and very friendly. We were treated very well. Sterling House of Fort Collins was big and modern, and it had all the facilities you could want. The rooms were small, but adequate. The food was good. They did have a hair salon and an exercise program. They did have a nurse on-call all the time, and that was important. They were everything I expected.

Sterling House is a nice place, and we are very happy with it. We chose it for my mother mostly because it is a new facility and because of the price. The other reason is because it is not an a la carte system where everything that you needed done has an added fee to it every month. This one is more of a capped price. They just opened this part of their unit in December, so they are brand new. It is very clean, and the staff is very nice. Her room is clean and nice. It is a little studio, so she has her own furniture in there. They have a lot of activities throughout the day like bingo and various things. They have an outdoor courtyard that is very nice. It is a nice facility. So far, everybody has been very professional. The place is very clean and very homey. It does not look like an institution or a nursing home. It has nice furniture, nice dining area, and definitely does not look hospital like at all.

I think my sister was happiest at Sterling House. She had more of an apartment feel there. I also think their food was a little better, but, there were times that she had to send them back because they were cold or something. Their staff was very good. My sister would participate in their activities. She participated in their chair exercises everyday and attended their Bible studies. She also got to know her tablemates very well. In other words, she was a lot more social there. However, the bad thing about Sterling House was their transportation. Unlike most other places where they have everyday transportation access, they only have transportation every Tuesdays and Thursdays. So as far as doctor's appointments or anything and if my sister would have them on Monday, other arrangements would have to be made. That was our biggest concern when she was at Sterling House.

Mom Has been at the Sterling house for three years and the staff has always addressed concerns and issues I have concerning her care. They have gone out of their way to keep mom living there as long as possible. The staff works hard and is always accommodating with meals with short notice. Thanks for all your hard work.
