Memory Care Reviews for Brookdale Tanque Verde

December 20, 2015

I visited this facility

At first, Brookdale was very nice and seemed very well organized. I went back unexpectedly, and it was disorganized and smelled. I went back the third time, and the bathroom that I saw that was not taken care of still wasn’t taken care of. One room was flooded with water, and the other one smells terrible. The staff was great, and wonderful. There was a library. The dining area was good, but it was not as homey and seemed institutional.

I visited this facility

We had an appointment, and the woman that setup the appointment was nowhere around. We were waiting and looking. We noticed that the residents at the facility waited about 45 minutes before they were served lunch. They were invited into the cafeteria, and I was just appalled. As far as the woman that set-up the appointment with my sister, everyone kept telling us she would be back, and we waited about 45 minutes. They must have someone in the office area to greet the people that are coming to look and even to greet the family members of the residents. We had to find someone that would speak to us.
