Assisted Living Reviews for Brentwood Retirement Community

I visited this facility

We visited Brentwood today and I was not impressed. We walked in the front door to the main lobby and the walls needed painting and had numerous cracks. In the lobby the ceiling had several holes where the plaster was coming down. We took a tour and saw a 2 bedroom/2 bath apartment. The outside needed painting, the inside needed painting. The walls had numerous cracks. Both bathrooms had about 10 or 12 dead roaches and numerous other dead bugs. The stove had 2 burners and both of them needed replacing. No carpeting in the apartment. The place is very old and needs a lot of "TLC". We toured the main building which was clean but needs updating and painting. The grounds are not the best and needs some care. The price is right for the size of the apartment and you get 1 meal a day. People were very friendly. It is conveniently located.

My father was a resident here for two and half years. Within that time he moved from independent to full care living. I cannot say enough about the caring staff from administration to nursing to support staff and maintenance. They were not only caring and concerned about my father, but I saw that interaction with other residents, also. No place is perfect, but I am very happy that this place was here for my father. My father was cared for with professionalism and dignity until the end.

We’ve found Brentwood Retirement Community for my mom. It’s fine. They take good care of her, and the only real complaint we have is the food as it’s just not very good. They’re very good with Mom on the whole, so we appreciate that. She has a two-bedroom wherein she has her own bedroom, closet, and a private bath. There’s a bedroom and bath on the other side, too, and they share a common living area and a kitchen. In the kitchen, they don’t cook, but she has a refrigerator and cabinets where she can keep snacks. They have crafts, entertainment sometimes, and different things. For those that want to, they have a bus that takes them to Wal-Mart and grocery stores.

Most of the staff here at Brentwood Retirement Community is very friendly. I have the most expensive apartment in this facility, so it is the nicest. It has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a small little kitchen, and a living-dining room. What I do not like about the place is they have very little activities. The food is average.

My Mom has been a resident for quite a few years. When she first went there it was acceptable and she was happy. It has been a downward spiral for the last few years. The food is terrible compared to when she first went there. The phone system to get in touch with her is joke as it indicates busy even when she is not on it. She will not consider moving. Management hides behind all sorts of legal indemnities so you have nobody to contact to complain. The local administrator is nothing more than a figure head with little power to do anything. Put your loved one(s) here at their own peril.

don't believe what they tell you . my mother has been a resident for two years . we would like to move her but have to wait on opening .the food is terrible, they are under staffed but get by with it by submitting cna's that are there but not on the floor. the most of the working people are caring people but the management is more concerned to making money. the cna's and nurses keep it going , not management. I would not recommend this place.

Mom moved to a patio apartment. Looked like a good idea to keep her independent and active while having some close by to check on her. She went quickly to the "lodge". The management team was inconsiderate and uncooperative. Several care staff were very caring people. Oxygen face tubes where left on the floor. Oxygen tanks stored near her bed. Bathroom was unkempt. Meals were served with ice water daily even when she requested no ice in her beverages. Medication.........................

Brentwood is very organized and very clean. The workers are very friendly. They take care of the people there really well. They put on nice parties for residents. My mom's very happy there. She has an apartment that has a living room, a bedroom, a little dinette, a small kitchen, and a bathroom. The food is comparable to that in a restaurant. It's very good. I really like the courtesy that the staff shows people over there. The atmosphere is really nice. I'm satisfied with what my mother gets and how they take care of her. Everything's really nice.

The facility was well kept. It is a clean building with plenty of parking. The facility itself is part of a larger retirement community which allows for frequent socialization of people who live there. It also provides for specialized nursing home care as well as assisted living so that elderly spouses at different levels of care can easily visit and spend time together and still have their needs met. The facility provides a gated entrance so that there is security in place for a safe living environment. The facility also provides transportation and other ancillary services such as home health and aides to assist in shopping and cleaning in the assisted living area. The medical care is by far the best I have seen in this area. The facility is staffed with caring doctors, nurses and aides who make life comfortable for the residents. The facility is decorated and constructed for ease of getting around and comfort. This is truly a caring community.

Independent Living Reviews for Brentwood Retirement Community

I visited this facility

Brentwood Retirement Community had one-bedroom or two-bedroom apartments, depending on what you want. They had a central dining room where they serve the meals and quite a few amenities for their residents. We are looking at independent, then assisted, and then heavy medical care. We talked to the manager of operations. This place is a good value for your money, but it didn't grab our attention.

I live in Brentwood Retirement Community, and it's really nice. The apartments are big, and I'm living independently. There's also assisted-living, and a rehab center here. The common dining area is good. It's big, homey, and restaurant style. They have bingo three days a week, Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday. They go on shopping trips, to doctors, and dinners occasionally. They have nice trees, but when it gets winter-time the acorns fall off the trees. It gets on the driveways where your car sits so you better be careful that you don't slip, and fall. They need to improve their maintenance too.

I am in Brentwood. It is very good and very pleasant. The food is very good. They have activities every day of the week. They have bingo, movies, they have bus that takes you shopping, and for the holidays, they have choirs singing. You name it, they have it. They have all kinds of activities. I definitely will recommend them to others
