Brookdale had a lockdown facility, but you couldn't go there for a month to try it out, and they only offer a long-term commitment. It was luxurious, and very nice. The staff in each section was very knowledgeable.

My mother has been in Brookdale Pinehurst Park for four weeks now. The application process was easy. Everyone there, the staff and the caregivers, they're all wonderful to my mother. The food is good, my mother enjoys it. She has a very comfortable room, which is clean. I love it. They also have activities several times a day.

We found Brookdale Pinehurst Park for my parent. The price was equivalent to what he had before, and we thought it was fair. The food looked really good. The facility had a hair salon and some activities. My dad is going to move in in a couple of weeks, so we will see how he does there.

Emeritus (Brookdale) is an excellent community. They took mom in immediately. I didn’t have to worry about rushing to sign the paperwork. Everything had been faxed. The people are wonderful. They would talk; they would listen. They’re so patient with them. They were so calming, very caring, very receiving, and very giving. It’s amazing how they work with them. It’s excellent care. Even the food is great. The community is amazing.
I have referred some people here. It’s a locked unit, but they have 5 different little communities. They have a beautiful outside walking area. They have the freedom to go outside and come in another door and sit in a little park area. It’s absolutely beautiful. It’s very clean, and that’s what I like.
They threw them a big October fest, and they threw them big barbecues for other stuff. They have all these family festivities and activities -- not just for the resident but for the family members, too. I can always go and visit. They know that I come late because of the hours that I work; it’s never a problem.

My sister was able to get a room at Emeritus. I love the grounds and the layout of the place. Lively people; the people that work there are wonderful. The rooms are pretty good. Very clean, huge amount of room. They're comparable to other facilities of that kind. They go out to places as well.

This is a larger facility located near downtown Denver and a pleasant neighborhood park. It is secured with keypad entry, and totally devoted to residents with Alzheimer's and dementia; residents with similar levels of functioning are situated together.
The are ten caregivers on duty during the day and five at night, along with two LPNS on each shift.
Court at Denver has an extensive wellness center"”complete with an exercise program. Laundry facilities and a beauty salon are also located onsite. There is also a hobby and game room, and activities offered include quilting and cooking clubs"”along with trips to local the local casino, zoo and museums.
Care and housing is quite expensive--$5,500 per month, all-inclusive for a studio"”but the facility may be a good fit for the well-to-do who have become accustomed to a certain standard of living.
Court at Denver's motto is "Our Family is Committed to Yours ”and mostly, the staff there seems to live up to that promise. However, it's an older facility that could use some updating"”and could definitely use some more staff.
