Brookdale Tanglewood Oaks

Brookdale Tanglewood Oaks had a very, very efficient, very cordial, very personable staff. It's very neat, organized, and I was impressed with the facility. The community offers pretty good meals too.

I took a tour at Brookdale Tanglewood Oaks, and I liked it a lot. The people were very friendly and very informative. It was a single-story facility, and I liked it a lot. I liked the memory care facility, and I was able to see both. I'm not 100 percent sure if my dad would go into assisted living or if I would go in memory care. The facility would have to help me make an assessment on that, but my dad would probably go directly into memory care. The facility was clean, and the patient/staff ratio was pretty low. The safety features in place were good. I do not know if I can ask for more improvement in assisted living. For memory care, maybe they could make it a little bit brighter as far as light coming in the facility and maybe they could make it a little bit more upbeat on some of the activities. Those would be the only two things that I noticed that were a teensy bit disappointing. The marketing director was very informative and very friendly. Some of the areas outside needed a little bit sprucing up.

I visited Brookdale Tanglewood Oaks, the lady was very nice, but she understood our financials, and this was not something we are going to do. Her fees were higher than anybody else when I compared them. It was well-maintained. The dining setup was nice, they had a place for the family to gather, and a place for the seniors to watch a movie.

My mother has been living at Tanglewood Oaks for a little more than a year. She is miserable and hasn't found much assistance at all. She will be moving soon which is not a move she wanted to make as change is difficult as we age but when asked if she was willing to spend the remainder of her life there she was willing to deal with the adjustments required to move. Hopefully her new home will be a better situation. Carefully check the compliance records and try to get a straight answer about problems they had with adult protective services in 2015. I never got a clear answer on why they were cited.

Brookdale Tanglewood Oaks was clean and nice, but it wasn't new. It was one story, and it was smaller than the other Brookdale place I visited. The dining area was very nice.

My parents are well taken care of in Brookdale Tanglewoods Oaks. The room is more like an apartment, so they feel at home with all of their belongings there. I like it. It is close by my home, so after work, I can stop by on my way home. They play card games, listen to music, and play games on the TV. They seem to enjoy it there. I like that it is affordable and close to home.

We also visited here and it was an older place, but it was clean. They had a suite, which was large -- the bedroom and the living room were together, they had two closets and the bathroom was very large. The dining room was clean and nice. The staff was very friendly. They had a lot things for them to do.

They're friendly here. Their rooms were a little small. The main thing I didn't care for was their menu. Also I think the residents looked kind of bored because they really didn't have as many activities for them to do. They had people mainly in wheelchairs and on walkers, but they didn't seem like they were overly excited about anything. They did have some activities, but they weren't for my aunt; she wouldn't like them. However, I think she would have liked that they had an area on the front where she could sit and watch the traffic.
