Assisted Living Reviews for Brookdale Palma Sola

Brookdale Palma Sola is OK. My father is there right now. His room is not big, but it has carpets and they said they'd replace them with laminates after a year, but they haven't yet. My father has a catheter bed, but it leaked the third night he was there, and it took them three weeks to clean the carpets; I probably asked them four times to do it. They're slow to react. We chose the place because they have an RN on staff from 7 to 7. It was more complicated because he has a catheter bag with special needs, and they offered the best solution for it. He likes it there. It's not bad, but it doesn't give as much attention to each resident. The food is fine and they have all kinds of activities. My dad also likes that they offer transportation. My main concern is that they expect everyone to be independent, but it's an assisted living community. The staff is very friendly, though.

We put Dad in Brookdale (Brookdale Palma Sola). We really like it. It was the nicest one we looked at. They do a lot of activities. It’s a really clean place. They serve really good food. They have other things that entertain the residents there all the time. Their staff is remarkable. I’m happy about it.

Wonderful staff, very caring. Physical therapy was right there on-site, which was great. There is always a monthly calendar of events, which is very effective as far as, let’s say, St. Patrick’s Day and Easter. There were always events to look forward to. I think for a lot of families, the deciding factor is finances. Brookdale Palma Sola is one facility that’s carte blanche versus a monthly fee.

We visited Brookdale Palma Sola for my mother. We liked it, but it was too far from where she lived. The studio apartment was the same size as the one she has right now. They had another apartment that was a little bit bigger, and they had a one-bedroom apartment, too. The dining room was very nice and attractive. The grounds were nice. They had the same activities. If you were in the independent living area, it was just like going to an apartment. However, if you wanted your laundry done, if you needed medication supervision, or if you needed help getting a shower, all of those were extras. However, the assisted living part included everything.

We really liked Brookdale. The person who led us around did an excellent job. We liked it just from her talking, but there weren’t residents milling around. Apparently it was after lunch and on a weekend; everybody was in their room. The common areas were not well lit. They didn’t have simple basic stuff like a hand rail in the hallways. Their furnishings were a little dated, but it was not a big criteria. It was clean.

Emeritus was one mile from my house. It was very clean, and that struck me. They have a maintenance man who is exceptional; he’s kind and personable. He goes out of his way to help everybody. His name is Jeff Cooper and I hope they appreciate him. The other people that are there are very attentive to the needs of the old people -- it doesn’t matter who they are. The receptionist is very gracious to anyone who comes in. My friend has played Bingo, volleyball, he’s done the exercises, he watched the old movies, he’s been out to eat with them, and they were about 60 people. Emeritus is a quality place to put a loved one.

The staff was excellent. But Emeritus Bradenton is very old and is just now undergoing some renovation. It needs some work. It looks like an old-fashioned nursing home. They also have arts and crafts and field trips. They have a variety of rooms. Some of them were nicer than others. Some have full glass patio doors, and those were the nicest. It's very light and airy. They could probably improve on lighting. The lighting in the dining room, the activity area, and the hallways just makes it look very 1950s.

Emeritus at Bradenton was just low quality. Everything was old, and it needs to be refurbished. It smelled in there. I think the carpets were old. The menu wasn't very good. But the staff who assisted me was OK. The rooms are good-sized too. It costs less, but the quality is less as well.

Emeritus was a nice place. It was pretty much the same as far as activities. They just didn't have a place for my mom right at that moment. It would have been my second choice if I'd had to choose. The rooms were actually a little smaller and more money.

We did a respite at Emeritus last May for my dad. They seemed to be a very nice facility. The staff tried their best. However, my dad needed more care than they could give him. So, it wasn't a good fit for my dad. I thought they needed to improve on their admission process for someone who was not coming from a hospital and were coming from home. They needed to spend more time and be more direct and specific with their questions with the patients.

I am writing on behalf of our entire family regarding my father's care at Emeritus at Bradenton. My father was transferred from another facility to Emeritus at Bradenton due to our concerns of the lack of care and/or support that we felt was our initial experience at an Assisted Living facility. As any family member knows, its a painful experience placing a loved one outside of their home. Our first experience placing my father at an assisted living facility was worrisome....every single day! We visit him on a DAILY basis and there wasn't one time that we left feeling comfortable and able to rest easy. My father experienced a life threatening occurance at the former facility and we removed him and placed him at Emeritus at Bradenton. From the first day that we arrived, we knew that we had found the right place for the Patriarch of our family. The care, concern and attention that we received was such a relief. All staff went out of their way to meet us, talk with us, wanting to know my father and what his wants and needs would be. Everyone was involved in the onset and I remember leaving the very first day feeling that my father was going to be well cared for. He has lived there for 3 months now and every single day we have left feeling comfortable, able to rest easy, knowing that my father is being treated with dignity and respect. He feels comfortable and safe and is progressing beyond our expectations. I want to thank the entire staff for giving my father excellent care. I also want to thank the entire staff for making our family feel like a part of the 'team' and that conservation is always maintained regarding his care. I highly recommend Emeritus at Bradenton.
