I went to Brookdale Palmer Ranch. The tour was very nice. The people were very nice. The place was clean. Very nice studio apartment. I also saw the one-bedroom apartment, which was very nice. It had a pretty outdoor patio area, and it seemed like the residents were all very happy. I had some questions about the food service aspect of it, and they did call me back about that. The director of the place was very nice and gave me all the information that I asked for. But, I didn't care for the salesperson's tactics. The person that I saw in the dining room who was a server seemed very nice, and he was talking with the residents and smiling. That was nice to see. They had a common space that seemed very small to me, and they didn't have very many amenities. It took me 45 minutes to get there, and it was too far for me.

We toured Brookdale Palmer Ranch. We loved the outside area. It was very, very nice. The dining room was also very pleasant. The rooms that we were shown were renovated. There were two studio apartments, one for a handicapped and one that was a regular studio, and they were stunningly gorgeous. The employees were very nice. They had a nice community room with a big kitchen area so that if you wanted to come down and do something there, you could do that. The staff who toured me was very pleasant, very informative, and knowledgeable. She answered our questions. She was great. Another thing is that it was very neat, very clean, and orderly. Nothing was laying around or anything like that. Everything was in its place as it should be.

We had an in-person tour of Brookdale Palmer Ranch. It was an excellent tour. It's an older facility, but considering its age, it is well-kept and clean. The staff was excellent. We spent quite a while with her, and she was very thorough. It was a studio that we looked at. It was small but clean.

My loved one moved to Brookdale Palmer Ranch. I like the atmosphere, I like the people and I got a good, warm feeling when I was there. I felt they took an interest in their memory care residents. He has a larger room. It's a studio and it has a sink in it and a refrigerator, plus it had a fantastically positioned shower that is set up for somebody that could easily be handicapped or hurt in a shower when getting in and out. That was a plus. Adriana was spot-on with everything and helped walk me through the transition. Sandra, the assistant, also helped me with getting stuff for the room. His room was not furnished, and so they were most helpful in getting stuff and things that I might need to get him moved in. The other thing that impressed me is their activities. They have an activities director specifically for the residents in the memory care unit because these people are different from your average senior. Justin is a real delight to work with and he's taken a special interest in my loved one. They have music, which is fine, because he used to play the piano. They had karaoke. They had one activity where they had these wooden blocks that they stacked up and then somebody pulled one out and then the whole thing fell. He was an engineer, and this is the kind of stuff that kind of works. He's not social and he never had a hobby, but Justin has gotten him encouraged to participate in some of those things.

My father-in-law is at Brookdale Palmer Ranch. It's very clean. It was recently painted on the exterior, while the interior is also very pleasant, welcoming, fresh, and clean. The staff is excellent, very caring, and competent. I've attended a cookout and tasted the food and it was fairly good. They have activities like Wii, bingo, a Jeopardy game, and outside entertainment music coming in, and they take the residents out to different restaurants and shopping. They have one-bedroom, different sized one bedrooms, and different sized efficiencies.

My Father had Congestive Heart Failure in February 2022. He was in the Hospital for 2 weeks and then the Hospital suggested "Brookdale Palmer Ranch" to our family. At first, all the employee's were strangers, but by the end of 7 weeks, we'd all become friends. The staff (Dr. O, RN's, and CNA's) went above and beyond to take care of my father who was suffering and not in the best of moods to put it mildly. Our family made a LOT of requests of the staff over the 7 weeks (having to do with personal care - to wanting an extra bit more to eat - all the way to him insisting on his Chocolate Pudding every night (!) and my father was always taken care of promptly and courteously. All the staff were always kind and professional--I personally never realized how hard their jobs were taking care of so many needy people non-stop. We felt a simple "Thank You" wasn't good enough--so the only way we felt we could properly repay the staff for the difficult work they had to do for my father was by making sure each week we brought in all sorts of delectable desserts for them to enjoy. The Staff helped my father heal and recover much better than we ever could have done at home. Loved ones need to understand that the staff have a lot of patients at every moment to take care of and have worked long hours--so, for the staff to be able to jump at every request, was simply amazing. We felt safe with our loved one at this facility. The facility was clean and well kept up. Zero complaints here! THANK YOU EVERYONE!!
