I went to Brookdale Claremore. The lady who showed us around and answered questions was very polite and very informative. It looked clean. That particular day, they were having an activity and I don't know what the occasion was, but they were setting up chairs outside and planning an activity for later that afternoon. The room that we saw was nice, clean, and looked very adequate for my aunt's needs. Based on our interview and the showing, it was good.

We visited Brookdale Claremore for my mom. It was very nice. It was clean and smelled good. The people were very nice, and the services were good. If I were to choose a place, that's what I would chose. We did not taste anything, but the menu looked great.

We went to Brookdale Claremore on Monday, and it was just really nice. The two staff members that we met were really pleasant people and helpful. They showed us in their laptop what the rooms looked like and everything. It looked like they're very caring, and the facility was really nice, very clean and very well cared for. The layout was fine. I didn't get to see the apartments, but they looked really nice and really nice-sized, and they had a lot of amenities.

We liked Brookdale Claremore, so we moved my mom there. It's very nice and the staff seems very responsive. It's very close to my house and I have no problems with it. My mom says the food is fine. They have places for them to gather and they do things together. They have a nice dining room and the rooms are nice. The facility looks very clean and they have a nice interior courtyard. There's also a sunroom.

Brookdale Claremore is giving mother-in-law a higher quality of life. She’s happy and laughing and talking and making friends and doing things. It was a great move. The facility is a very nice place with a lot of activities. It’s very clean and lovely. The food was good, it’s home-cooking comfort food. The staff were very helpful and they seem to be very careful. We trust them.

We really liked The Sterling House. My dad’s room was a lot nicer there compared to where he is now. He was there for a while, and it was a really nice place. They treated him very nicely, and everything was great. The reason I got him there was because they were having a promotion thing that the rest of the month of February would be free and then the month of August would be free, but there was no contract.
The place did not have any kind of smell. It was very clean, and it seemed really new. They also had a memory care unit there. They were really good about his meals and getting him exactly what he wanted. It was a pretty small community. I do not know how many people were in there, but he was having a lot of attention.

Sterling House was super nice but far from my grandma’s place. The people were very nice and knowledgeable for people with dementia, and they let them roam around freely within the facility. It’s like a hotel. They are playing cards, and I saw ladies were dancing. Accommodation was very impressive.

Sterling House is way above the rest. We looked at several in South Dakota, and those were all terrible. I think the laws are different in Oklahoma where they can provide assisted living with additional care. I believe that makes it possible for this place to do what they do. But it was the personal care, the number of workers, and the freedom that the patients have. It's an Alzheimer's unit, but they give care until the end. They provide care and don't ship them off to a nursing home. It's a beautiful place. But it is the care that i am drawn to.

We moved our mom into Sterling House June 3, 2014. I really am pleased with the staff and the rooms. I visited her last week and she was playing Bingo. They have gotten her to join in exercise, singing, and visiting with other residents. She had previously lived by herself for 17 years. She really needed the social activities.
My brother and I joined her for lunch the first day. It was an excellent meal. My brother brought tomato plants and planted them in a raised bed they have out in the courtyard. They are very encouraging for the residents to participate in activities that they enjoy and looking for more all the time.
I am very happy that my mom is safe. They have to let you in and out the door. I have found peace of mind in that aspect. The apartments are very nice. Nice sized rooms with a bathroom with a walk-in shower, a walk-in closet, small kitchenette.

We are very satisfied with how everything works there: their security, their staff, and their attentiveness. The rooms were very nice, clean, and roomy. The have games, musical guests, gardening, and they do crafts. I like their attentiveness and that they monitor the residents very often. They didn't just let them sit in a room and do nothing.

I have visited Sterling House with my Aunt about 18 months ago
She is currently on a waiting list for her room. Their staff are wonderful. I was able to talk with the marketing director and we exchanged information via email. While I was with my Aunt 3 members, the director. Nurse and assistant marketing director came to see us
We discussed my Aunt's needs and how they would be met
My cousin and I went to visit to address the furniture arrangements, we visited several rooms, met residents. We had a great time. I feel this will be a blessing for my Aunt. And for our family

If someone has to be cared for 24/7 and the family can no longer keep them at home, this is the best place for them to be. It is a 302 bed facility and the residents' needs come first. If they had the funding to be fully staffed all the time, I would have given it a 5 star. My brother is a quadriplegic and requires full care, bathing, dressing, feeding, medicating, everything. They treat him as a person, not a number or a paycheck.
Memory Care Reviews for Brookdale Claremore
April 30, 2022
I visited this facility
I thought Brookdale Claremore memory care was a nice, and clean place. I was impressed with the employees and the people that I dealt with during my visit. I met some of the staff and I thought they were nice people. They all came over and introduced themselves.
The food was a healthy fixed meal and it was good. The place was clean and nice. I was impressed with that.
When you get dementia, I don't think you enjoy anything. It's hard and I don't think they could make the residents do anything but I think the activities that they offer would be good for them.
Questions about Brookdale Claremore
Describe the overall population of assisted living residents at Brookdale Claremore. What is their average age? What are their favorite things to do?
Here in our Assisted Living, I would estimate the average age of our residents to be 82. We are a very active community, with some of our residents still driving. About a fourth of our population is male and we do have a men’s group. Our residents love getting out in the community, partnering for intergenerational programming with the preschool next door and all of our unique musical performers that come in each month. We offer several different programs to promote health and fulfillment, including daily exercise, brain games and educational programs. In our Memory Care, we follow the award winning programming that focuses on a daily path for our residents and the programming is conducive to their disease. We offer clustering activities so that all of our resident’s programming is met, regardless of where they are in their disease. We also have 7 day a week programming in our Memory Care.
What places are near Brookdale Claremore or within walking distance for assisted living residents to enjoy?
We are close to all of Claremore’s dining and shopping. We offer bimonthly transportation to shopping centers and transportation is available to local doctor appointments. As for our menu, our Dining Services Coordinator has been with us 8 years and we offer a variety of down-home style meals that everyone seems to enjoy. And, of course, pancakes every Friday morning! And if a resident has a particular food they would like to see incorporated in the menu, Terri is always willing to make it.
What safety features or security measures does Brookdale Claremore offer to assisted living residents?
Both of our buildings have coded, secured doors to come in/out. If a resident were to push on the door, an alarm would sound and the floor staff would be notified. Usually this is enough to startle the resident to stop pressing the door. Both buildings are set up so that there is plenty of space to walk around, so we usually find this helps our residents that were exit seeking prior to coming to our community.
How does Brookdale Claremore keep residents' families informed about their loved ones?
In both buildings, we have monthly family events and our nursing and administration staff stay in constant communication with our families. They all have their cell phones so that they can feel the peace of mind of having their loved one here.
What is the care staff-to-resident ratio at Brookdale Claremore during daytime and nighttime hours?
As for the staffing, it is based on our resident’s care acuity, so it varies depending on the care needs of the residents currently and the time of day.
If Brookdale Claremore accepts dogs or cats, what indoor/outdoor areas can they enjoy?
We are a pet-friendly community and we have an enclosed courtyard for our furry friends to go play in.
What ongoing senior care training does the staff receive?
Our staff gets ongoing training each month and our Memory Care staff gets additional dementia care training each month.
