My parents are in Brookdale Russellville. Part of the big advantage is that they know residents there. The facility itself is doing a good job. They’re extending their services to accommodate Mom and Dad’s specific needs. Each time there had been an additional challenge, we felt like the employees have responded well to it. I have eaten there several times this summer, and the food is fine. However, the one thing I would say about it is that it doesn’t strike me completely consistent as low-salt. I would love to be able to have a more restrictive diet as part of their program there, but that doesn’t seem to happen unless it is doctor-ordered, which they will automatically accommodate. They don’t seem to accommodate heart-healthy diets. The community is very close to the medical facility, which is a plus. They shuttle folks around, and it is about 1-minute drive to the clinic and to other medical facilities.

We considered putting my husband at Brookdale, but then we realized he wasn’t able to handle that. We did have lunch there, and the food was wonderful. The dining room was nice, too. The people were wonderful. They had a van to take people to town for grocery shopping and the mall. They had activities during the day. The rooms weren’t as nice as we would have liked, though.

Emeritus at Wildflower is very nice. The staff is very nice, and they were able to help me. The rooms are of a good size, and they are clean. The environment is very nice because it looked homey and inviting. There was a fireplace and a living room like area where residents could sit and talk. It is nice. I couldn't think of anything to improve the place. We are not to the point of putting our person in a facility just yet, but this would be a place that we'd consider.

My mom was there for two weeks at Emeritus and they took very good care of her. I liked the way it looked and that it was very clean and neat. The room is quite nice, it was like a little one bedroom apartment, it had a kitchen, a living room and it was furnished. They have a very different menu, a service for giving her medications and they did short term care which was what I was looking for since I went on a vacation. The people there were great and friendly. They had all kinds of activities, they went on outings, and they have exercise programs, art and card playing. Family and friends were able to visit mom so she didn't feel lonely.

Wildflower is a great choice for anyone considering an assisted living facility. I had a close personal friend that chose assisted living because it came him the security of knowing that he would have help when he needed it, yet still have plenty of freedom to enjoy going out into the community. After visiting and researching several facilities he chose Home Place because of the friendly staff and the nice rooms they have to offer. After moving in, he was very impressed with the wonderful meals that they offered. He was always bragging about the staff and how helpful they were while still allowing him to have his freedom. Every time I would visit, a member of the staff was always sitting with him listening to him reminisce and looking at pictures. While I'm sure they had heard the same stories and same pictures a hundred times, they were always so friendly and willing to listen and look one more time.
