My friend moved into The Village at Brookfield Common. The facility is very nice. My friend is happy there. He said the food is good. They're very friendly. There's a lot of help. They make him socialize, which he does not do, so it's very good for him, because they're forcing him to go out and eat dinner in the dining room. They have a lovely dining room. The people are very friendly. They have loads of activities for them. They give him transportation to his doctor. They have entertainment, a gym, a little library, and puzzles they can work on. The arrangement is beautiful. It's really set up very nicely. They have a terrace where they can go sit out. It's near shopping. They have different specials for every meal. They give my friend very good care and check on him every evening to find out if he's OK.

I visited this facility

I went to The Village at Brookfield Common memory care, and we also saw some pieces of the assisted living area. They had a schedule of activities posted. They were restricted in terms of meal times, which concerned us. If my mom forgets to go to dinner, then she won't get any dinner. They had a nice outdoor patio space, but the other outdoor spaces weren't as nice as the other places I toured. I saw all the memory people in a lecture, which I didn't think was appropriate for them. It was kind of over their heads, and maybe the planning of it should have been thought out a little better. The salesperson that I met was wonderful. She answered every little question, and the follow-up was good. I had cookies when I was there. The rooms were beautiful. They would have been the second choice because of where it was, and the access to the community my mother was living in before her decline. It's located on Federal Road which is a pretty main road and is close enough to the hospital where her doctors are affiliated.

Our tour at The Village at Brookfield Common was very good. I enjoyed it a lot. It was a really nice place, but right now, our concern is cost. I like that it's very bright, very cheerful, and very upbeat, and they really treat their residents like their family, which is really nice. The place was very clean, too. We didn't get into too many of the activities, and because of COVID, they are very limited on what they are doing.

I toured The Village at Brookfield Common. I thought it was really nice, I thought the staff was incredibly personable, knowledgeable, and super helpful about providing information. The building itself looked a little bit older on the outside, but the inside is actually super nice. The rooms were private, they showed me around, and gave me a list of activities. There's not much going on right now, but kind of what would normally be happening.

I am/was a resident of this facility

I was a short term resident of this facility in 2019. I only saw this website now. Believe me, they say that this has tradition and elegance—so long as you pay the astronomically high monthly rent for small rooms and care charges, that is! The aides are really the ones who run the show and they are obviously overwhelmed but I do give them lots of credit for working so hard with residents. Management will do anything to avoid serious issues unfortunately although they are good at charging a lot. These care facilities are really a step or two up from a nursing home with beautiful decor but the food is (usually) lousy. Exercise class is a highlight and they do make arrangements for physical therapists to come there to give therapy to residents. Trust me, the thing they do the very best, though, is handing out the monthly bills!

My aunt has been living in The Village at Brookfield Common for several weeks now. Our experience so far has been very good. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly, the services are very good, the place is very clean, it's a modern and beautiful community. She's in a studio there. There's a variety of rooms in this place, however, in the memory care unit there are only 2 types of studios with one slightly bigger than the other. They have a very nice little bistro where the residents can gather for coffee or entertainment. They also have outside entertainment that they bring in, there's a lot of activities every day for the seniors, they also have a main dining room where the family can share meals with them. There's an outdoor deck where the residents can use, several gathering rooms, and overall, it's one of the nicest communities I have seen during our search.

We have just moved my father into The Village at Brookfield Common. The rooms are very clean. The staff members are very friendly. We met many people on the staff. There seems to be many activities there. They have rooms full of people sitting and watching TV. There was somebody leading a discussion. It seems that there are lots of activities. The staff is very friendly. They're as good as you could possibly expect. The place is very clean and very comfortable. It seems to be spacious and well kept-up.

The Village at Brookfield Common was a nice place, it also has good parking. I saw the residents playing Bingo at a table and doing some exercises in a room. I liked that the staff and patients are doing different activities and the people that gave us the tour are very outstanding. It's a lovely building and its newer. A lot of the rooms are for two people and accommodates a husband and wife. There are also single rooms, which were very nice. I tried the food and it was very good.

My first impression of The Village was that it looked new, but I thought it was 14 years old. It was clean and well maintained. There was no odor. It was pleasing to the eyes to look at. We went on tour of their three floors. The staff was very friendly. She shook our hands. We met the head chef. He introduced himself and explained a bit about what they did and what the menu was like. He invited us for lunch, but we said: “That was OK. We weren’t expecting any lunch here. We just wanted to stop in and see it because we were in the area.” They were very friendly, very courteous, and took their time explaining things to us. We were two people, and it was a little small. It was more geared towards one person unit.

My mother is at The Village at Brookfield Common, and she has been there for four years. The rooms are beautiful, and so is the facility. It's absolutely gorgeous and really well-appointed. The staff is friendly and really nice. There are a lot of activities. It's expensive, too. You can get full-time nursing, but it costs extra. The facility has assisted living, early memory care, and advanced memory care. They keep it clean, and the staff is very friendly. The food is very good for institutional food. The big problem is that it's just expensive. They take her to all of her doctors.

My visit at The Village at Brookfield Common was good. It was a little older than the other place I visited, and the surroundings were not as good, either, because they did not have much outdoor space. The staff was very good.

My mom moved to The Village, and she is enjoying it. The people there are very nice. The help there is very attentive. They have very nice activities there for the people. The rooms are nice. The only negative thing I will say about it is that my mom is complaining about the food. She says the food is not very good. However, other than that, she says it is fine. So, I will recommend it.

Provider Response

This is a fantastic facility, but what makes it extra special is the enthusiasm, care and love the staff gives to all of the residents. We have had our parents there for almost three years (now just my mother as my father passed) and we have been thrilled with their care. There are really no words to express the gratitude our family has for this amazing "home". Our mother has dementia and she is constantly engaged, supervised, fed, and taken around for activities. She doesn't remember them, but thankfully the staff is great at taking pictures and sharing. We could not ask for more. Her smile says it all. Those of us across the country are able to Skype with her (with assistance from staff) and that has been a fantastic way to keep connected as well. We have looked at many facilities and Brookfield Commons is in a class by itself.

Provider Response

This is one of the nicest, most heartfelt letters we have received. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with us. Caring for seniors is not just our purpose, it's our passion. We love what we do and are extremely proud of our team. Please let us know 203-775-8696 if there is anything we can ever do for you and your family.

The Village is a nice location and it’s a beautiful place. It’s very high in terms of cost. If I could afford it, it would be a great place to use. My mother-in-law can’t see. The problem is to get somebody to come and take her to meals and everything else; that starts building the cost up phenomenally.

Provider Response

Thank you so much for sharing. Individualized care is one of our hallmarks as we strive to meet the distinct needs of each resident. Please feel free to contact us at 203.775.8696 if there is anything we can ever do for you and your family.

My daughter and I had a tour at The Village. It was very beautiful and lavish. The appointments were very lovely. They had a wonderful presentation. I was impressed with the grandeur of the place. It was like a beautiful hotel with chandeliers. They had nurses and doctors on site, which was a big plus. The apartments were very beautiful. We were there in between meals, but I noticed that there was coffee available all the time. They had soft drinks, juices, and platters of fruits available, also for guests. The dining room was also gorgeous, with high ceilings and big windows. It was like a cruise ship. They had computers, an exercise room, and trips. However, it was probably because of the time, we felt like it was deserted. There was no one around. The people were in their rooms, and there didn't seem to be any particular activities at that time. I thought it was for someone who was more incapacitated than I am. Also, it was more than what I could afford.

We went to The Village at Brookfield Common and it was very nice and clean. It’s a very sunny place. I like the dining area. I like how the residents have their own colorful plates. I like their program and everything that they had to offer. It looked like they offered a lot of things for the residents to do. One thing I did not like about this place is that there was very little place for them to go outside. They have this tiny backyard and I was not impressed with that.

I chose The Village at Brookfield Common for my mother because they had a very high rating and a very good reputation. It was also convenient because it was close to my sister. The staff were very accommodating, helpful and caring. They also made sure that everything was set for my mom to move in and made the move very easy. They handled any issues that came up very promptly and responsibly. The staff were excellent and I liked the people who ran the place. My mom was happy there and she loved it.
