Brookdale Hampton Cove was very nice. We would like to go there, but they don't take skilled care. If we were still just in memory care, we would go there. We went there twice. Everything was very nice. The people seemed happy there. The people that talked to us were very good. If we could go someplace and not have to have skilled care, that's where we'd go, but my husband needs more. You have to be able to do certain things for yourself. They have an outside place for the people that live there. that's pleasant. It's an older building, but it's in a good location.

Brookdale Hampton Cove was very comfortable in terms of welcoming. There was a lot of activities among the residents, so it just seemed to be kind of a vibrant place that I think would have been a really good fit for my husband. The sales representative was just amazing. She has called back a few times to check on me and my husband. She has just been extremely accommodating, so I highly recommend Brookdale.
The day that I dropped in, they had a seating area where they were playing balloon volleyball, and there was another group that was over in a dining area that were getting ready to play bingo. At this given time, there were at least a couple of different activities that were going on that the residents could participate. The rooms are private rooms with plenty of room for a double bed, an easy chair, and a place for the TV. It would have been quite comfortable for my husband.

My tour experience with Brookdale Hampton Cove was very good. The person that met me there was very knowledgeable, very thorough, and friendly. We spent about over an hour there, we had lots of questions that were answered, and they offered a lot of help. The facilities were very nice, very clean, and overall, I was very impressed.
They got a room with a bathroom and it's very clean, but you do have to provide the furnishings for it. I was very impressed with how it was run and everything. They have a great courtyard where people can meet and sit in, and then they have a calendar where it shows the activities they have every day. They do a lot of exercises, a lot of musical stuff, crafts, and a big array of things for the residents to do.

We visited Brookdale Hampton Cove in person, and it went very well. Everything was great! They gave us the full tour of everything, and I was very impressed. The facility was very organized and very clean. Security was more than satisfactory.

Beware: We had toured and we were all set to move my mom in but unfortunately the night before the contract move in date of Sunday Nov. 30 2014, my mom was found on the floor of the facility where she was living. This resulted in a hospital stay of a week and now she was not a candidate to live in Clare Bridge since she needed more care and rehab. We had signed this contract out of convenience on Sat. Nov. 29 and called Clare Bridge from the hospital on Sunday Nov. 30 telling them that my mom would no longer be able to come to their facility. We were hoping that the contract would just be annulled since my mom never came to the facility. Of course this is not the case. We had paid first month and community fee but now were explained that we would be out 7 days of our money. Real nice-they made around $786 of our money even though my mom had never stepped foot in their facility. This now gets worse since after repeated phone calls, that are never answered, we finally get only part of our refund late in January almost 2 months from when we paid. More phone calls again to try to get the other part of the refund. Finally after much stress and hassle, we received the rest of the refund in April-just short of 5 months to get our refund and with no apology or anything. We are still out $786 so I warn anyone that you do not want to deal with this facility-they have a big communication problem and I feel that they took advantage of our misfortunate with my mom's declining health.

Clare Bridge is a well-kept and clean facility in a nice area of Hampton Cove. It is convenient to Huntsville, without dealing with all of the traffic and pollution of the city.
The staff members were very friendly, and the clients seemed to be very happy with where they were staying... which is what matters the most. I highly recommend this facility.
