"My mom moved to Brookdale Vista Assisted Living. When you step inside, you have your administration office on the right. Then, you have a community center and a dining center for all residents. My typical first impression is everybody's pretty happy. The residents who are out and about are usually smiling and happy when I come in there. They're very talkative, and they always greet you. They're very outgoing. They have activities like gardening, which is one of the things that drew my mom there. They have card clubs and movie nights. There are a number of different types of activities that people enjoy. They have game days. They have lunch outings together. They'll set dates and take residents out. The residents will pay for their lunch, but they'll drive them off for lunch. Everybody gets a chance to go to different places to eat and socialize. It's a very happy kind of atmosphere. They keep the community active. I hadn't eaten the food, but from what I saw at lunchtime, the dining area was fairly full. It's not like a set menu. They will ask your opinion on what you like to eat and what you would prefer. They are attentive to any allergies, but what your favorite foods are or if you're not feeling well, they'll make the food you like. If you like chicken noodle soup when you're sick, they make that for you. It is a good facility, and it is nice. It's just a little older facility, but a good one. It's designed like a studio and one-bedroom apartments, depending on your needs and set-up, so caregivers can easily interact with the residents."
