Jane 2021-07-06 We went to Traditions at Brookside, and my mother-in-law liked it so much that she didn't want to see any place else. We were very impressed with it. The facility itself was very nice and well taken care of. The staff seemed very knowledgeable and competent. They answered any question we had. The services they offered were what we needed for my mother-in-law. Our overall impression was good to excellent. I saw the assisted living and memory care. The staff felt after talking to her that she really belonged in memory care. We originally went there to look at the assisted living part; but after seeing that and talking to my mother-in-law, the staff felt that she would do better in memory care. They seemed very concerned, and they knew how to talk to my mother-in-law without coming on too strong. They asked her questions directly and were really good about including her in the conversation. They answered all of our questions to our satisfaction. They were very friendly, concerned, and seemed very competent. We met the head nurse and the head of the memory care unit, as well as the executive director. We did not go during mealtime, and we did not try the food. We asked them about the food. It's a menu that has the same things every day, plus a daily special. The dining room seemed very nice. The staff has been there for quite a while. They don't have a lot of turnover, which was important to us. The facility was clean, well kept, and very pleasing to the eye. It looked brand new. it was just very nice first impression inside and out. I visited this facility

Ellen 2020-10-06 My mom moved into Traditions at Brookside. It is very nice, they keep it immaculate, and their staff is very friendly. The maintenance guys helped us move her in, and set up furniture. They did a whole lot more than what their job description called for. They were very helpful with that, they keep very close tabs with my mom, and they keep close contact with me. They have restaurant style eating under normal circumstances, but now they're serving them in their rooms; it's a lot of prepackaged food, and so my mom was not thrilled about that. The room is very spacious, lots of natural light, a nice bathroom with all the hand holds, pull cords, and safety related things. It's very tastefully done. They usually have a happy hour every day; they have a jukebox that plays oldies, and lots of different games. My mom has a dog, they have an area where she can get off her lease, and run around. They have some great rocking chairs out there, and she has made a lot of friends; other dog owners out there. I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

Beverly 2020-10-03 We moved my dad to Traditions a couple of weeks ago. I like the location, it's close to where I live. He has a door that leads outside and one that leads into the hallway and once covid is over we can come and go through that door without having to go through the lobby. The community has been great other than the restricted visiting due to COVID. They were very helpful. He said that everyone there is very nice with him. They go out of the way to make him comfortable. They walk the paper and hand it to him and not just leave it at the door. They deliver the newspaper every day. They are kind of spoiling him. With the staff, I have no issues with anyone yet. He likes his eggs prepared in a certain way which they don't offer. It is expensive but we had no idea going in how much it was so it was just figure-shock really. But they have a lot to offer so it's good value for the money. I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

Debbie and Edel 2019-10-10 My mom has lived in the assisted living section for two years. She is very happy and comfortable in her spacious one bedroom apartment. The staff is friendly and kind. They are incredibly caring to my mom. She loves the contained outdoor courtyard. She enjoys bingo and her bible study group. I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

Deb 2019-07-24 My mother will move into Traditions at Brookside on August. Our experience was very good, the woman I worked with was very helpful and friendly, and the facility was just a couple of years old, so it's very well-appointed. There's a large brook or stream that runs behind it, and there's not a lot around, you have to drive to get to other places. It's laid out more like a hotel, it's bigger than a house, I think they have 75 assisted living residents, and then they also have memory care. Everything is updated, she's going to be in a studio apartment, it's a nice size, and it's got a little kitchenette. The dining area is lovely with white tablecloths and white napkin service, full restaurant service, three meals a day, and doors that connect to a patio. It's lovely like a resort. They have beautiful patios and a courtyard. I visited this facility

Ina 2019-04-15 I think what was really impressive was Traditions at Brookside. It was new, only 2 years old, and the assisted living houses were nice. We saw a theater, dining area, and they looked very good. However, they did not take Medicaid. I visited this facility

Marty 2018-03-09 Staff is caring and friendly. The facility is less than a year old and is absolutely beautiful! There is a nice variety of activities offered from arts and crafts to guest speakers to movies and musical entertainment, to community trips. I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

chiprumsey 2018-03-05 The staff at Brookside has worked hard to be as helpful as possible to my mother. They have been wonderful. The residents all seem very satisfied and well taken care of by the staff. Relocating a loved one is always challenging but the staff at Brookside has done a amazing job at assisting and accommodating our situation. The facility is beautifully laid out and they are always bringing in outside organizations to entertain and interact with the residents. I could not be happier with having my mother at Traditions of Brookside. I am/was a resident of this facility

glh 2018-02-27 Food staff seem untrained in serving and food selection doesn't reflect foods older persons are used to. Need more home cooking style. Have had mess ups on medicine reordering and dispensing of dosages. Does not make one feel secure. I am/was a resident of this facility

LMiller 2018-02-27 Overall staff is friendly, and facility is very nice. Very pleased with all of the activities that are offered, as our mother is very active. The only negative feedback is that we were surprised to hear the monthly rates were going to increase when my mother had only been living there for six months. I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

Harold 2018-02-27 The only complaint that I possibly have is that Mom sometimes, esp on weekends, has trouble getting Imodium on a timely basis. She says it sometimes takes an hour and a half. Otherwise, this is a beautiful facility with wonderful friendly and helpful staff. The food is very good and mom overall is very happy. I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

bill-stanley 2017-05-23 On 3 Feb 2017, two Traditions@Brookside (T@B) employees, including a supervisor, assessed my mother at another facility (MM). They were aware she was eating pureed food. MM prepared and Dr. signed a detailed 3-page Order Summary Report (Doc 1) that included “DIET: PUREE diet” on the top half of page 1. T@B accepted Mother and gave me forms to be filled out by MM to support a Mar 6 transfer. MM filled out and Dr. signed T@B’s forms (Doc 2) and also updated Doc 1 (Doc 3). Doc 2 had a line “__ Resident choice from regular diet menu”. MM did not make a check mark on this line, indicating she was not eating from the “regular diet menu”. Doc 3 included “DIET: PUREE diet” on the top half of page 1. T@B changed the transfer date to Mar 13, then Mar 20, then “hopefully in Mar”, then “in a week or so” and finally Apr 10. By then, Docs 2 and 3 had expired and were redone (Docs 4 and 5). The Doc 2 line quoted above was again not marked in Doc 4. “DIET: PUREE diet” was included again in Doc 5. Starting June 2014, my brother drove 1000 miles one-way and I drove 1100 miles one-way at different times each month to visit our mother. During T@B’s delays, by brother delayed his visit so we could both support the transfer, causing neither one of us to visit for about 3 weeks. He made a visit, drove home and then returned a week later to support the transfer. With each delay, I changed the rental-truck reservation needed to move furniture. While moving items into her room at 10 am on Apr 10 in preparation for her transfer at 1 pm, the supervisor informed us our mother was being rejected because she was only eating pureed food. The supervisor knew that on Feb 3. She claimed MM told her they could transfer my mother without stating she was eating pureed food. MM denied saying that. Why would an MM employee alter existing documents that would place the therapist and Dr. at risk when the therapist had not and was not planning to perform an assessment to determine if my mother could eat food processed “mechanical soft” or not processed at all (regular)? Because T@B does not accept residents eating pureed food, they should have inquired before doing the assessment on Feb 3. I had to go through the entire procedure again to find a new care facility. Mother was transferred on May 8. On Apr 10, T@B told me my $1000 deposit would be returned. I called on May 15 and the check had not been printed. I received it on May 19. I visited this facility

Mary881776 2017-05-06 We are going to be moving my parents into Traditions at Brookside. It is nice because it is brand new. When I first visited, it was under construction, but now it is finished and really nice. They have a workout area and a movie theater. You don’t have to sit down at a certain time and eat; you can go and get what you want whenever you want in the dining room. That is something that my dad really likes because where he is now, you have to eat lunch from 11 to 1. They have a courtyard in the center. We worked with Kara, who was very nice, very helpful, and showed us the different apartments that they had. I visited this facility

Joan 2020-12-04 At one point we lived in Traditions at Brookside in little houses, in independent living, but I was able to have a pendant on my husband, so we actually knew everybody there. I wanted to place my husband there in memory care, but they can't handle him right now. The staff is great. I already know them because I knew eventually I was gonna need memory care for him, and they had a program for memory care. We had a two-bedroom, we had a garage too, and we got one meal a day, and it was really good. They have a chef, and we enjoyed the food. It's really nice, it's a brand-new place, it's just new and very modern. The dining room was great, we had music a lot of times, people waited on us, and it was great. We totally enjoyed it. I have nothing to say, the staff was just perfect there. He would fall. I slept in another bedroom, and those girls, they had the keys. They would go back there and come in and just pick him up, and half the time I wouldn't even know he was lying on the floor, and they were all very nice to him. They had a regular shuttle bus where they would take him down to the VA, and just anything you asked 'cause they tried very hard to please anybody. I am/was a resident of this facility

Linda 2018-10-31 Traditions at Brookside was very nice, but it was too expensive for us. When we went there was hardly anybody there. We only saw a few residents out, one chef and the lady who gave us the tour. It felt very formal and not as relaxed as the other community we chose, since it's sort of an upper-class setting. It was very nice and very pretty, and the rooms were very nice. They had a bus and a lot of activities. It's very new, nicely decorated and had a lot of amenities. They're not affordable for us. The staff members accommodated us, and came in when they aren't normally there and took us on a tour. I visited this facility

Thank you Beverly for your review! We are so glad that your Dad is being "spoiled" by our attentive staff! We certainly strive to have your Dad adjust well! We definitely would love to meet with you regarding the costs. The level of care charge is determined after a nursing assessment is completed to give you the most accurate pricing. We are also working on making sure your Dad gets what he wants for breakfast! Thank you for the 5 star review!

Traditions at Brookside was very nice, but it was too expensive for us. When we went there was hardly anybody there. We only saw a few residents out, one chef and the lady who gave us the tour. It felt very formal and not as relaxed as the other community we chose, since it's sort of an upper-class setting. It was very nice and very pretty, and the rooms were very nice. They had a bus and a lot of activities. It's very new, nicely decorated and had a lot of amenities. They're not affordable for us. The staff members accommodated us, and came in when they aren't normally there and took us on a tour.
