I went to look at Brookdale Central Chandler. The staff seemed nice. The building seemed fair, but the memory care seemed horrible. It was a definite no for me when I saw the memory care. I know my mom was potentially a memory care person, if not now, in the very near future, and there's no way I was going to put her in there. In memory care they've got all of them jammed in there. They've got one little place where they can all gather. It was just like a patio, and you put chain links around the patio and lock them in. They couldn't even go out in the grass. It did not appeal to me whatsoever. They need to do something about memory care. The nice thing about it is that it was single-level.

I have my sister placed in Brookdale Central Chandler. I like the community because it's one story basically, and the fact that they have an outside area for them to be able to get out of the room and experience the days and not have to be stuck in their rooms, which is what I like. The staff was very good at helping me to try to get everything organized to get my sister there, and then she finally was transported by the hospital to the facility. Right now, she is just waiting for her husband to be transported. Her husband is going to join her there in that facility. Because I work full time, I have no time to go see what they're feeding them, but I'm sure they're good just like any other place would be. I wouldn't have any doubt about it because they're very meticulous about trying to keep the residents happy. It's always clean. They're very polite and very good to me. I am sure that they would do the same for her in about how they treat her. I wasn't disappointed at anything about getting her in there. It's very well handled. The staff in the front office was great.

My mom was a resident of Brookdale Central Chandler. It feels very homey, very inviting, and very homelike, but the part that may not sound very complimentary to some seniors is, that it felt like a senior college dorm. Like everybody was just out and people were walking around, or people were on their scooters. There were a few people that have pets, from birds to dogs to cats. It just feels like home, feels like a comfortable place. I thought the staff was great. They may have been a little short-staffed from time to time, but I have no complaints whatsoever about anybody who I dealt with or who cared for my mom, whether it was somebody that was in corporate, in management, or somebody who was a CNA or one of their staff. I have no complaints. They have movie nights and also a bowling night. They have something at least three times a week. My mom was not a big participant, but they always had things. The dining hall was always a big social thing. They had a couple of nondenominational and then Catholic Services by one of the residents who lived there. I guess they call him Pastor Steve; he would have people come and meet for services if they wanted. There were a couple of other things that they did, like a sort of prom night. They always had something going on. They tried to keep the residents very engaged and active and involved if that's what they wanted. I will say the food was good when my mom first moved in, it seemed like it was very good. But then, I'm not sure if it was staff-related or because they had an outbreak with Covid and they didn't have enough staff, but it seemed at one point towards the end, in the last few weeks when my mom was there, the food just seemed very repetitive. At that time, it just seemed very bland, and not what their usual standard had been prior.

We liked Brookdale Central Chandler. Unfortunately, it was a bit out of our price range. That was the first we went to. We thought everything was wonderful. The rooms were very clean, and very streamlined. We liked the layout. They were kind of like little studio apartments. We left quite impressed with that place. We saw an activity; it was pretty funny because it looked like folks were having a good time. They looked like they were playing some board games in the lobby, and someone's grandkids were there. There was a group of ladies, I think they were in wheelchairs or walkers, and they looked like a group of friends going somewhere within the building to play a game or do some kind of activity. They invited us to join them, but we had to decline. The staff were wonderful, too. I can't remember the name of the girl that helped us, but she was patient with us. I think she realized right away that we were just really exploring, trying to learn. She did a really good job. She showed us a couple of different rooms, and just really explained the available options. Even after we knew right away that it was a bit out of our price range, she was still pretty helpful just helping educate us. We mainly talked with one gal and I'm sorry I can't remember her name. She was wonderful, very patient, and very thorough with us.

My tour experience at Brookdale Central Chandler was awesome. The lady was knowledgeable and she did a good job. In terms of the rooms, it was like I was on a hospital floor, but they deal with a lot of dependent people, so it was expected to have carts out in the hall. The rooms were a little smaller. The living atmosphere was ok, I saw some activities and they were playing some games there. The facility itself was a little bit old-looking.

I liked Brookdale Central Chandler a lot. The rooms were nice. The price was quite a bit higher though than everybody else. Everything was awesome. The lady that gave me the tour was Mary, and she was extremely nice and I had very good talks with her. I wasn't sure why they would be so much pricier than anybody else. They don't have like pools or tennis courts or anything like that. It's just apartments. There was a central courtyard. As far as the assisted living, it was kind of in a separate building on the campus there. There's nothing wrong with it, but I don't want to go somewhere as far out as Chandler. I like to keep somewhere a little bit closer to Mesa. It was very nice. I loved the layout and the fact that it was a single floor. That would be the best thing for someone like my dad.
