Brookdale Lewiston

We moved our folks into Brookdale Lewiston several months ago after living in their home for over 52 years. We have been pleased with every aspect of their experience. The staff is friendly and helpful and the food exceptional. My dad loves the coffee time with the other Veterans and my mom is enjoying her crocheting/knitting group. These are two people who did not socialize for several years while living in their home. The nurses are there whenever my parents need them and the Director and management have made themselves available for any questions we need answered. As a family we are so glad we found Brookdale Lewiston! It has given myself and 4 siblings (we all live out of town) a piece of mind knowing that our parents are in such an amazing community.

We visited Emeritus at Juniper, and my mother didn’t like it very much because it’s is so big. The grounds were nice, well-kept, and clean, and it was in a nice neighborhood. The dining area is really nice, very clean, and well-appointed. I think there was exercise, games, and they have a bus that take people to places.

The facilities are warm and inviting, they are clean and do not give the typical hospital like vibe. The staff were extremely friendly and I heard nothing but positive remarks from the residents. The rooms are spacious and homey, they accommodate for the fact that elderly residents do spend a lot of time in their rooms when they are not out and about at the numerous activites

My grandmother was a resident at Juniper Meadows for 5+ years. The care she experienced there was unsurpassed. The care givers were always compassionate and thorough, house keeping kept her room immaculate, the nursing staff was incredible and the administration did everything possible to make sure she was taken care of. Since her death last year, the staff conitnues to keep in touch with us to see how we are. They truly are more than an assisted living community but a family. I would recommend Juniper Meadows to anyone who is looking to place a loved one in an assisted living facility as it is the best I have ever experienced.

When walking threw the front doors it feels as though you are walking into a Holiday in. Very warm and plesent, clients gathered and visiting. You can hear them in the dining hall, the food smelled great. I was able to look at different floor plans, some of the rooms had a living room and seperated beadrooms with a small area similar to that in a hotel for the kitchen area. They all have emergency alert systems, as well as a touch system that alerts the staff of an emergency. All was quite plesent and full of life. The staff were all really good to the clients and patients, treating them like they were individuals that were alive: people. Not like some of the other ones I visited (they seemed very dark and unpleasent as though it were more of a uniform hospital. I would recomened this to anyone with a family mamber needing some assistance.

The staff at Juniper Meadows is always friendly and helpful. My grandpa loves all the activity options they have available for him. They have bingo or some other activity every night of the week. He also loves that there is a bus to take him shopping and to the bank on a weekly basis if he needs it. I am glad to know that he is safe and somewhere he enjoys. The single rooms are a bit small, but an adequate size considering the activity space available. The double rooms are a good size for two people to share. I haven't eaten there but my grandpa says the food is very good. Juniper Meadows is in a very convenient location just off the main street and they have good visiting hours. The facilities are always in good condition and they do the residents laundry on a regular basis. This kind of quality service doesn't come cheaply though, Juniper Meadows is one of the pricier assisted living facilities in our area.

My grandparents both moved into Juniper Meadows about two years ago, and it warms my heart to see them so happy!The facility feels more like a comfortable hotel than a traditional nursing home or assisted living facility. The hallways are tastefully decorated with floral prints and benches for guests. Each room is completely private; residents have their doors closed for the most part, and they are free to decorate their door and the area outside of their room as if it were a house. Many of the doors have wreaths on them, and several guests have welcome mats. Residents can reserve rooms in the dining room for private dining when friends or family come to visit. As long as the Juniper Meadows staff has about 1 days notice, guests can use the private room, and lunch and dessert are served by staff. The food is pretty good, too! My grandparents say that breakfast is excellent, and lunch/dinner are just good.What really strikes me as special about Juniper Meadows is that the staff is TRULY caring. They know residents' names and are always there to help in any way. They truly take an interest in each resident. I am always amazed by the personal details each staff member seems to know about my grandparents! They always set up social activities and try to get residents involved. There is also an on-site beauty parlor, and the beauticians set up appointments with residents and come to their rooms to walk them to the parlor. Each room at Juniper Meadows has a kitchenette that guests can set up microwaves and small refrigerators in. Cooking is discouraged, but microwave snacks are just fine. Staff comes to greet each resident when it is mealtime. They try to keep residents' spirits up and encourage them to get out of their rooms when they can.It is always tough to admit it is time to put a loved one in an assisted living facility. I feel happy knowing that my grandparents are surrounded by such loving people.
