Browning Masonic Community

Browning Masonic Community was gorgeous. It had a lot more amenities than I needed, and the price was high. The staff was very understanding, caring, and helpful. They had everything. The TV was included, WI-fi, the gym, you name it, they had it.

Browning Masonic Community is very nice and very accommodating. I really like it. The person who gave me the tour was nice, very inviting, very warm, and very knowledgeable. The rooms were nice, clean, and updated. They have bathrooms and roll-in showers, and I like that. The dining area was nice and welcoming. And they have a little restaurant that's different, and I really like it. With regards to activities, somebody had donated like a big table that had a screen covering. It would project from the top of the ceiling down on it, so it was interactive. It might have like four plus five and then it gives you different numbers of what it could be, and you just hit it with your hands, so it was sensory stimulating, something where they had to use their hands. People that have dementia forget a lot, so you have to stimulate them, and that really drew me in. They have a big, nice garden area that's safe. They can't get out there, and it's beautiful. They do a lot of crafts and art type things. They also have like an area for the men. It had an old manufacturing book from Jeep, and it had old phones and things that were more guided toward men. All these things were old because of the age of the people. It was from their era. Each room has a window box where you can put your memories. It could be who you are or your husband or your kids, whatever, something you could look at and remember. They had a little shopping area for women. It was knickknacks and stuff that females would like. They could just take what they wanted, like they were shopping, and then later they would collect them out of their rooms and put them back for somebody else to shop. The place was really, really nice, and brand new. They had redone areas. It's beautiful. They keep them up. You're not going to lay in the bed here, and that's good because you want to stimulate their mind as much as you can. I think it might be good for my aunt. Her dementia is increasing, so it may be good for her, or maybe not.

I was very interested in Browning Masonic Community. It’s absolutely beautiful and they have condos. It’s in a park-like setting, like a golf-course setting, and it’s beautiful. They have a large area, a large building you can move into as you need more help, and they have a lot of activities. I was very impressed with it.

Browning Masonic was a very nice community. The staff was very helpful. She answered all of our questions and showed us all over the place. They had lots of different amenities going on, which were very nice. There was an exercise class while we were there. They had a workshop down in the basement with power tools, a sewing room for women, and an exercise room. They had a calendar posted with the activities for the day or for the week. I definitely would have moved my parents in there if they had a two-bedroom unit.
