The residents at Brookdale Melbourne seemed very happy and content and they were interacting with each other. Simone was fantastic. She deserves kudos. The building wasn't the newest that I've been in, but Simone was able to go over the emergency procedures with me very clearly and concisely for evacuation in case of a hurricane because we're in Florida. The residents were outgoing. They all spoke to me. It was pet friendly. I got to meet some of the pets and they were fantastic. The residents had an herb garden that they worked on together. A lot of the residents were watching a movie when I went through it. They just seemed like a cohesive team as opposed to individuals living in a facility. They seemed like a family and that's what struck me the most about that facility, and it was comfortable and real. It was like home. You didn't get an institutional feeling from it. I met with the activities director. She was facilitating a movie in one of the common areas. There was a gathering of residents, and they were all engaged. I would give the facilities director a high rating, too. What I saw there that I didn't see in any other place was they had a computer set up in one of their common living room areas. It had a large TV and they were free to use a computer if they needed to or wanted to. Simone was very informative. She broke everything out very clearly and concisely. She gave options and suggestions and that is so very much appreciated. When my mother does become receptive, I would probably definitely look there again. They had a variety on their menu. I loved it. It didn't look brand shiny new, but it looked comfy. They're undergoing some remodeling in some rooms, so that takes away a little bit from the appearance. There was new carpeting.

My mom is now in Brookdale Melbourne, which is a smaller community than the others I've toured. They had single and double-occupancy rooms, and they don't have kitchens in the rooms. They had a large dining area and an enclosed courtyard with a gazebo and a garden. They have a large living room area or TV room, they had a couple of activity rooms, a pool table, and an exercise bike. They do cards, bingo, puzzles, and they have a yard sale. My mom enjoys these activities. It was a little rocky at first, but now they have a new kitchen staff, so things have improved. I haven't tried the food but it looks OK. The staff members have all been very helpful.

Brookdale Melbourne was a little more assisted living. It's a little slower paced than the other place, but the staff was very pleasant there. The facility was very nice. It's just not where my aunt would want to go at this moment. It would be for somebody who's a little further along in their needs.

I went to Brookdale Melbourne. I like their attention to the patients. I didn't like their set-up for memory care. I visited their memory care and assisted living. It was nice. The staff who assisted me was very courteous and very open. They have a salon and a place for them to go outside. They don't have kitchens in their rooms. It's close to home. There are restaurants around and a shopping mall. There is a Wal-Mart about a mile or a mile and a half away.

I liked Brookdale Melbourne memory care a lot. They have a safe feeling community. The caregivers all seemed like they cared about their residents. Nobody from the staff looked tired or worn out. They're not understaffed, which is a big problem right now for other facilities. It's not a brand new facility though. It's a few years old, but it doesn't smell like urine or anything. This place was very clean. It smelled very good and was kept very nicely.

Brookdale Melbourne was a nice home, but they don't offer the skilled nursing care that my wife would demand if she gets released from her present assisted living. I toured the assisted living part of it, but the majority of my time there was spent really determining that they did not offer the physical and mental care that my wife would require if she is released from her present assisted living. The staff was very friendly and informative and they seemed to take care of their residents. I watched their contact with the residents that were out in the hall, and they seemed to be well acquainted and caregiving. I did not go into any room, but it looked convenient as most places in Florida are one-story. It's well decorated and well lighted. Because of my interview with the staff, I didn't really go into a detailed tour there.
