My husband moved into The Gardens at Brook Ridge. They're very good. It's a nice, clean establishment. The nurses are really good. I don't have a problem with it at all. My husband has a really nice, clean, private room with a big huge bathroom, a bed, and a little bedside table with his TV. They have a special section in the dining room for people who have to be fed. My husband is in that section and they have workers who come in and feed him. They have a lot of different activities. They take my husband out of his room and take him to the TV room and work on puzzles with him. They play bingo and they have music all the time for them, so its a very relaxing community. It's expensive, but if you can afford it, it's worth it.

My husband is at the assisted living level of The Gardens at Brook Ridge. Their facilities are wonderful and the food is great. The activities director works hard to keep the residents active and socially engaged. My husband has the larger of the studio apartments and it's quite roomy.

The Gardens at Brook Ridge is clean, and the staff is nice. They have good medical care. Mom has some privacy, but she's got enough assistance. There is a beauty shop, a workout room, and lots of outdoor space. They serve 3 meals a day. They have outings and puzzles. There is a movie room, a chapel, and a place to cook if she wants to do that. The staff is very helpful. They have lots of routines, they encourage her to go down for meals, and they take her to exercise. They will serve her meals to her room if she's sick or doesn’t feel well. We have an option to take her to her doctors, or they can do that for us.

I visited The Gardens at Brook Ridge. My impression was that the residents were happy. They did not have a specialized separate Alzheimer's wing. That would not have been a good fit for my mother. Plus, it was expensive. Their dining area was very nice, but it was not that homey. It was more institutional. It had a lot to offer, but it was not a good fit for my mom. They had a lot of activities.

The Gardens at Brook Ridge was a lovely place. We were very well received. Everybody was so polite and good. We had lunch and talked with the manager and the lady who took us around and showed us everything. It was very nice. We have friends that live there, so we got to see them and they love it. A lot of people came up and told us how they love it, too. However, it’s mostly independent living. The dining area was very lovely and not really formal. The food was delicious. We had a choice of two entrees, and it was very wholesome food. They have three meals a day and don’t have any alteratives; if we eat those as three meals a day, we would weigh 300 pounds in no time. I like that they had 2-bedroom apartments and a patio outside.

My brother is in The Gardens at Brook Ridge. My brother really enjoys the food, and it's pretty balanced. He's anxious to get down there early so he can eat. The people are so friendly and take good care of him. He has to be bathed, and they do a good job. He seems to like it. They play bingo. He has a walker and started walking around the building a little and getting exercise, which he didn't do here at home. They do adult coloring, Pokemon, and have movies in a theater room that has 18 big, old, heavy-duty leather chairs. They have a bistro right next to the kitchen, and the dining room has snacks like cakes, candy, ice cream, coffee, lemonade, and water, so if anybody gets a little hungry, they can go there. I am extremely pleased, and my brother seems to be liking it, too.

The Gardens at Brook Ridge is one of the best places I've seen around Texas. They have 24/7 nurses, and everybody is very polite and very attentive to the people. They have a list of activities posted. The staff is very knowledgeable.

The visit at The Gardens at Brookridge was wonderful. The apartments were large and roomy; they were already setup for anybody who is disabled, it is clean, and there is nice scenery outside the window. The staff was attentive and caring. The dining room was neat; they setup the different colored plates, so you knew what time of day it was. They had daily outings, an activity room, and crafts for their activities. I was ready to place my mother in there, so I was extremely satisfied.
