My husband is in Brookdale Wornall Place. They're good about listening, changing things around, and calling me if they see things I need to know about. He was in a one-bedroom and I had to transfer him down to a studio because of maneuverability. He's also a fall risk. They will go in his apartment every couple of hours to check on him and make sure he is OK. They assist him and escort him down to his meals. He's starting to get more involved in the community activities. He likes the breakfast there. He does Be Fit and wheelchair exercises. They have arts and crafts, painting, pool table, swimming pool, Bingo, movies, pub, and entertainment. They have a monthly newsletter that lists the activities for the day. They have shopping, bus tours, bible study, exercise room, library, and farmer's market that comes in. The independent living facility is in the same building as assisted living, and they get to do some of the same things as the assisted living. I'm happy with everybody there. It's a beautiful facility. They would do pureed food if needed.

Independent Living Reviews for Brookdale Wornall Place

I visited this facility
Brookdale Wornall Place was lovely. I liked the people who I met there. However, it was so far out. Nevertheless, if I am to consider some place again, I would give it a serious thought. One of the things that I really like about their living quarters was that they have kitchenettes. They have small fireplaces and walk-in closets. The room was more up-to-date than where I am now. I talked to a couple of people who live there and they seemed to be happy. They were telling me about some of the activities. I probably could fit in there really good. The staff members were very accommodating. It seemed like a nice place. They were great. I saw their menu and their dining room area and it looked great. The place was huge and gorgeous. They had a pool, too; I was very impressed. The price was a little higher, but I really liked it.

Brookdale Wornall Place is mostly apartments. The apartments were a little on the small side for my husband and myself. The community wasn't as nice as the other two. However, they have a pub and card room, an all-day dining area, a general store, 24-hour emergency response, and an all-faith chapel. They have housekeeping services, therapy services, and underground parking. The utilities are included in the price of the rent. Their staff is available around the clock. The staff members were very nice. They know people by their names. The staff member who accommodated me was very knowledgeable. We had dinner with them and it was very good. The food was excellent.

The food has been getting worse. Concierge service is not efficient. My mother has a standing order for laundry service and no one came to do it. She complained to the "concierge" service twice and still no one has come or apologized. The meals are now worse than previously. The apartments are great, staff mostly helpful but very expensive for poor food quality and non concierge service.

I was able to visit Brookdale Wornall Place, and it was excellent. I like the facility. The upkeep was great, and they had a lot of activities. The apartments were lovely. The only thing there is that their washers and dryers were not in the individual apartment. We really like the facility.

The staff was very helpful, explained everything, took us around, and showed us the rooms.
They have 1-bedroom rooms or studio type rooms which was very nice. They have a nice dining room, and the community was very nice too. Brookdale Wornall seemed to have a lot of things going on, like some residents were playing cards. It was a nice place, and it is close to where she is living. It’s one that we would consider.

When we walked in Brookdale, we didn't have a good vibes. We didn't like it. It just wasn't cozy. It felt like a hotel. The representative there that we met with wasn't that interested because at that time we were there, there was no apartment for her to move into. So, he wasn't really pushing for a sale. He didn't call or follow through with us until two or three months later when they finally had an apartment available. I wasn't impressed. However, I liked that they had a lot of planned activities for the residents. If you would like to be busy, you could be busy. I thought the guy just kind of turned us all off because he didn't have anything to sell that day, and he was distracted.

Grand Court was very, very nice. I don't have any complaints about it except I don't think we can afford it. They had a lot of activities. The meal looked pretty elegant. It was just a nice, clean place.

I liked the layout of Grand Court and the facilities and the newness of it, since they've been under renovation, but the cost of it is a little out of my range. It's like $3495, and I'm paying $2000 where I am right now. I like the apartment because it is roomy, and I was surprised it had a full kitchen, a refrigerator, and a stove. It's like a house, where you have a thermostat that you control heating the air from one switch instead of like where I'm at now, we have an older furnace and heater, and you activate either one and leave the other. They have transportation to your doctor's appointments, but they only have it for so many hours and 10 miles from the complex.

I liked Grand Court. They were preparing for a party when I was there and they looked very excited. They staff was very nice. During our tour, they stopped to converse with the residents whom they knew by name. I liked their rooms. They were spacious enough.
