I visited this facility

We went to visit Brookdale Westover Hills. It is fabulous. It's smaller, but it's immaculately clean, and after every person moves out they do a lot of painting and carpet repair. It's very bright. The apartments or the assisted living, they don't have even a small kitchen facility. They have just a medium-sized refrigerator with a little freezer on top and a microwave, and there's no room for anything else. I was looking at it. This is kind of hard for me to even find a place to put the coffee pot, because that's how small the dining areas in those apartments are. At least the one I saw, because they are assisted living, and their point is to encourage you to come down to the dining room and make friends and be sociable. So there's very little in the way of kitchen facilities in the apartment, but they are very nice. Some of them have balconies, and some of them have just patios, depending on what floor they're on. They have multiple elevators. But, for you to be admitted there, you have to be able to go down one set of stairs in X number of minutes. If you can't do that, they don't accept your application, and that makes sense. If the elevators go out, you being in a multistory building could have a real problem though. They've got nice facilities all over that building. They've got game rooms, they've got craft rooms, they've got a TV viewing room. They've got small reading rooms where residents who would like the same interests could meet in those rooms. In the dining area, I didn't see the food, but the dining area looked like a posh restaurant and the menu book, I saw the menu for March and it looked very good. Most of them do, if you're not happy with the regular menu, they usually have some alternative. This one did have something not to turn it to the rest. The bathrooms are nice, and at least in the assisted living that I went into, the bathroom was nice. It was large. There was enough room if you needed it to get into it with a wheelchair, and when they played around it, it had enough grab bars for you to get to the shower (easy and so forth). The staff member was very good. She's been with them a long time. She gave a lot of information. She did a very thorough tour. She's not in the money area, so there was no discussion of costs with her. That's not her job, her jobs are the tours.

My mother-in-law moved into Brookdale Westover Hills last week. There isn't anything that we have not liked. All of the staff and the residents are very friendly, kind and happy. The facility itself is very well-kept, and it's easy to find your way around. There's always someone around to help you should you get lost. It's large enough without being too large. The food is delicious. We had chicken-fried steak, a wonderful apple cobbler, and their dinner salads. My mother-in-law had several different items that she enjoyed. She gets to choose from roughly five entrees for every meal, plus choosing which vegetables she would like. She can choose what she would like to drink and what she would like for dessert for every single meal, and it's all very fresh and nice. They also invite and encourage family members to dine with the residents. And if they don't want to eat in the dining room on a given day, they can go and get their lunch to go. They'll package it all up for them to bring them back to their room, or they will deliver it to them if that's what they choose. They have a lot of choices along the way, which means at that age in a place like this, they can feel like they still have control. They have an actual movie theater with about 15 recliners. On every floor, they have multiple meeting places where residents can work jigsaw puzzles. They have one that's a designated library. They have a workout room and a couple of rooms for group meetings like Bible study, and things like that. They have field trips where they can go to two different stores. They have people come in to entertain at least once a week. Every day they put something under their door to let them know what the activities are for the day and if there's anything that they need to be aware of. In the elevators, it's also posted What the activities are for the entire month and also for the day. There are four floors, and every floor is near the center of the hall. There are super comfortable chairs. And I think if the resident needs to stop and rest before they get to the end or whatever, there are multiple places like that on every floor. There are multiple restrooms everywhere, too, so they're pretty accommodating.

I visited this facility

My father will be moving into Brookdale Westover Hills. Communicating with the people was very easy to do. They're very open to being flexible with the tour. We saw the memory care area and the director of memory care spoke with us, did a tour of that area, and she was very knowledgeable. I liked the amenities there. It's designed and developed for a memory care person. It's more than what you typically find in a facility like that. The menus looked good. They're not the same menus that I've seen at other facilities, so that was important also. He's getting a semi-private room. It looks like it's going to have enough storage and it's going to be adequate for his needs. The community rooms are well positioned so that they can have visitors. The whole idea is that you're not going to be in your room that much, so the rooms don't have to be big and lavish or anything like that. The goal is to get them out of their rooms. I think it's going to work out well. The two rooms share a bath. There's like a little bit more than a three-quarter wall between the two bedrooms. They have a room that has specific activities if you want to do games or whatever. They also have stuff geared towards men, and it wasn't all just like puzzles and checkers. They had different things that they could put together or sort things to kind of help them with their dexterity and their memory.

The tour at Brookdale Westover Hills was good. The only thing is we barely saw any residents out and about, and maybe that was a fluke, but my mom and I didn't like that. We wanted to see more people interacting in the social areas, and we didn't. Maybe we came at a bad time. My mom's very loving and she's very friendly, and she wants people to be around and up and about, and that place was like everybody was in their rooms. The staff who gave the tour was great. The room or apartment was like a mid-level hotel. The upkeep looks fine. The dining area was much smaller than the other place we toured, but it was a smaller facility. It looked like it had cafeteria-style dining. They weren't utilizing their dining room because of COVID, but they were reopening the dining room this week.

Brookdale Westover Hills looked good and homey. The staff was very open, very caring, and very good. They talked about visitation and you can take them out when you need to. They have games there to play. It's overall pretty good.

I toured Brookdale Westover Hills for my friend, and it was very eye opening, because I didn't know anything about that. The place was clean, and the apartment was nice, so I have really good comments about it. The person who assisted us was very friendly and very nice. She told me everything that I needed to do and what the process was. I've seen the dining area, and it looks very good. There were no activities when I was there -- everybody was in their room -- but I think there were some people sitting downstairs. They had a beauty salon and a barber shop in there, but I could not see it because the door was closed.

My mom moved into Brookdale Westover Hills. She was there briefly, and then she was moved to Behavior Hospital to get her medication corrected, and then she'll be returning to Brookdale. She moved into the assisted living, but will now move to the memory care when she returns. The experience was very, very good. I guess all the nurses and the workers are very engaged, very thoughtful, and free to give out their cell numbers. We had a lot of issues with my mom with her transition. With COVID, the transition just was not easy for her since she has Alzheimer's. It was very difficult, but they were all very, very good in checking in on her.

Our overall experience with Brookdale Westover Hills has been great. The staff is very friendly and it was an easy transition. The sales person was a well of knowledge and easy to contact, they got back to you. I tried the food once, it was great when I had a meal with my mom. They take good care of their clientele, I was very impressed.

My experience with Brookdale Westover Hills is fine. We have bingo, card games, movies, live entertainment, and a lot of things. We go out to eat once a month as well. Sometimes the food is really good and sometimes it's not, just like everywhere else. They have a library and internet.

I really liked Brookdale Westover Hills. The people were extremely friendly, and the residents were up and about. I really loved it. In the memory care area, they had different places setup to remind them of memories or things they might have remembered doing. It was a wonderful place. The rooms were a little small, but there was a microwave, a refrigerator, and a large bathroom. It was nice.

Brookdale Westover Hills was very nice. It looked wonderful, and I was thoroughly impressed. It was new and modern. The lady was very professional and spent quite a bit of time with me. I was just very impressed with the whole place. I looked at a studio room, and it was very nice. The place was very clean, and it was very new-looking.

Brookdale Westover Hills was really nice. It looked clean, there were a lot of activities going on, and it was a nice place. The rooms looked very spacious. They had a theater room, a nice game room, an exercise room besides their cafeteria, and some reading areas. Their dining area looked like a restaurant. The people I talked to were nice, friendly, and helpful.

The price to live here is crazy. You pay room and board as well as everything as far as meds, grooming, care and anything needed has a added price. They have 3 meals a day we visited at lunch to eat and the food was overcooked and not enough. Staff seemed helpful but not orginized. Nursing seemed overwhelmed not sure why if the building seemed vacant. Was not what i expected and feel maybe my parents would not be a good fit at this time. Looking at other Brookdales around the area.

My parents were residents of this community in 2010-2014. I refered friends to brookdale in 2015 they moved in and we have been frequent guest to visit because it brings back memories of the love my parents received by the staff. Alot of them have remained through the yrs since my parents. My good friends have been greatful for sharing this once great place to them. I am deeply disappointed in the turn over with new management. The past few months have been a big turn around the lack of communication, treatment, integrity and respect for community. Walking into this place has torn us apart. As of now i would not recommend westover as a fun loving environment for anyones loved ones. We miss the old good staff that they had thank you!

I very much liked Brookdale. It had more of an institutional feel to it but still very nice. It’s spacious, and there was a lot of light coming in, which I think indicates that it would be very comfortable. The staff was very accommodating and helpful.

Broadway Plaza (Brookdale Westover) was too big; there were a lot of people in this place. It was so noisy. There needs to be some way to could control the noise because even in the cafeteria, I didn’t see how the ladies and gentlemen would be able to hear each other at the tables. All of the people were wonderful, very nice, and very helpful. They didn’t attend to us, so I could see that their focus was not trying to get new customers but on making sure their residents felt secure. We were stopped several times on our tour for questions from residents, so it was very nice. As we were trying to leave, the girls did a presentation.

We looked at Broadway at Westover Hills. Their rooms were not as big as the other facilities I've looked at. I liked the location because it's the part of Fort Worth that I used to live in, so I am more familiar with it. Everyone there seemed very nice, as well, when we went to visit. They were also very knowledgeable. The person who took us around was very nice and very helpful. He also knew the answers to all the questions that I had. We saw a room, and it was very nice.

Broadway Plaza at Westover Hills is a very good facility and very clean. The only problem that they had was that kitchen was small, but I think they wanted that everybody should go to the dining hall. The rooms were also small, but everybody seemed happy. It was nice. The lady who showed us around was a very sweet lady. They offer a lot of activities, but I didn’t see a lot of activities going on. It seemed like everybody is staying in their room, and I think they need to make the facility brighter because it's kind of dull.

Thank you for visiting our community and sharing your thoughts. It is very important to us to receive feedback from our prospects, residents and families. We have exciting things happening at Westover Hills this year. The entire campus is scheduled to be renovated in the next four months and among all the new furniture and flooring, new lighting is one of the top projects of this renovation. Westover Hills will look even better after everything is completed. Further, because our community has four floors, activities are happening in different areas in the building throughout the day. We have three activity associates assigned to the campus and we cater to all kinds of interests. We offer an average of eight activities a day for our residents and weekly outings are very popular in the community. Moreover, you were absolutely right about our dining program, we believe that socialization is a big part of what we do, and there is no better time than meal service for us to encourage residents to come out of their apartments to enjoy a good meal and chat with others. Westover has 11 floor plans, but because the community is always full, you probably didn’t have the opportunity to visit one of our 1-bedroom apartments which have beautiful views from the Westover Hills neighborhood from their private balconies. If you have a chance in the near future, please come back to see us and our sales team will be glad to set up a time to show you these apartments. We have lovely residents who enjoy when we ask them to show off their beautiful apartments! Thank you again for your review and please let us know how we can help you to find a solution for you or your love one.
