My mom has moved into Brookdale DeLand. It is OK. It is very clean. The people are friendly. So far, we are happy with it. There are group activities that they do together. They have ice cream socials one weekend between lunch and dinner. They seem to keep them moving. They offer three meals a day plus anything my mom wants in between. Transportation is available over short-distances. At this point, my mom's needs are met, so that's the main thing. She is eating well, and she is responding well to new environment better than they thought she would. We are happy with it. The staff members are very friendly. They seem helpful, and they have everything basically taken care of.

Brookdale DeLand was very nice. It was clean, but the room would be empty. The person who showed us around was a very nice lady. She was very helpful. The dining area was very nice. There was also a living room area with a TV and a fireplace, which was very nice too.

My visit to Brookdale DeLand was very good. It's smaller, but very family oriented. It has the memory care unit right there, so a couple can stay together, you just kind of move down to another hallway. It's just a one-floor facility, and they did really well with the hurricane last year, which is certainly significant here in Florida. About a block and a half away is skilled nursing and Deland Hospital, so that's very convenient. The staff was awesome.

My mom spent the last two years of her life at Sterling House and it was fantastic! She was happy and enjoyed being with others, social activities, and being able to be private in her little 'apartment'. The staff there is fabulous - caring and concerned, but authoritative when needed! They were wonderful with my mom the last few days of her life - the love she felt was great. Three of the staff actually came to my mom's funeral. I would highly recommend it to others looking for a new home for their loved one.

We visited Brookdale DeLand. It's a very nice, newer place with different-sized room choices. I think they need to update it a bit, although I think they are updating now. It seemed to be well staffed, which is good.

The Sterling House of Deland (Brookdale DeLand) would be our second choice. They have like little townhomes or duplexes. Their dining room was nice. It was very nice and clean. We did eat there, and I thought the food was excellent. The gentleman who took us for a tour was very professional and very polite. Actually the people in the home were really great too because they invited us to stay, and we were able to have dinner there and sit with some of the residents. The facility was very clean. It wasn't a gated community, which wasn't bad.

The staff at Brookdale DeLand was very organized and very friendly, but my father needs more assistance than what they can provide right now. The rooms/apartments were very clean and very nice. They're very updated. They almost looked like they're brand new. The dining room was nice. They have some activities. As for security, they have a door where they can't go out unless they have somebody that would let them out. It was a locked facility. I would recommend them only for assisted living because it didn't seem as though they're capable of doing anything more than that.

I have a parent who is currently a resident at Sterling. After being in several other facilities prior, I can highly recommend Sterling House. Everything from the staff, nursing, atmosphere, cost, accomodations, meals, all excellent! It is more of a home/apartment setting, rather than some that resemble hospital settings, or institutions.

My Dad currently lives at the Sterling House of Deland and we couldn't be happier with the service he recieves! I felt guilty in the beginning but he is healthier than he has been in years. The staff is loving and kind, it really warms my heart!! The food is amazing as well!!!

Sterling House of DeLand was excellent. It was slightly newer, so the rooms were a little bigger. The staff was very nice and very knowledgeable. The dining area was very nice; it was restaurant quality.

My aunt is very pleased with Sterling House. She wanted a smaller environment. This is a very homey atmosphere. They go out several times a week on different outings. My aunt's children have eaten there, and they said the food is very good. It's very clean. There are no bad smells in there. They're painting and cleaning all the time. They just redid the landscaping in the front. It's beautiful; it's very well-kept.

My brother and I chose to put our mother in Sterling House, DeLand, Florida when we felt our sweet elderly mother should not be home alone any longer but still wanted to be somewhat independent and not live with her children. We looked at all the facilities available on the West side of Volusia County, FL. This was the only one we felt would be the right place for our sweet Mom. She had her own nice room which looked out onto the garden area in the center of the complex. Her room was llike a small apartment with bedroom, small kitchen area, living room and huge bathroom. Very nice meals were included and served in a very comfortable dining room. Sterling House also provided a number of activities for the residents both inhouse and off campus. It is a beautiful facility with caring manager and employees, a place a daughter or son can feel comfortable with the knowledge their parent will be safe and happy there.
