Stoney Brooke Assisted Living

Stoney Brooke of Eden was above average. The rooms were large. It's pretty much a standard assisted living facility with no frills. It's below average in terms of activities. This was a very basic assisted living home where the ratio of caregivers to residents was fairly high, so a lot of hands-on supervision and a lot of care is given. They're not categorized as a nursing home, but they function a lot like a nursing home. They have a common dining area that accommodates all the residents at the same time, but nothing fancy. It gets the job done and if the person can't make it to the dining area for whatever reason, they're served food in their rooms.

I have always thought that this facility was great. The staff seems friendly and helpful, and always goes out of their way to assist the residents. At the other care center we considered for my grandfather, the staff really seemed like they didn't care about the residents and generally came off as mean and thoughtless. Not the case here! My grandfather hasn't had a single complaint about the facility or staff and says that he enjoys it there very much. The activities and food provided for the residents are also top notch. My family and I have never had any problems going to visit him. Everything seems clean at Stoney Brook, they really run a tight ship. If my grandmother or another relative or friend in the area had need of an assisted care facility, I would definitely recommend this one.

This is a pretty nice facility. I know that a big draw for the residents is the big screen television. That can be good or bad according to your view on television. However, there is definitely no lack of activities. However, I know that a few of the residents are really appreciative of football and they have a little Monday night fest during the season. I even think I saw one of the women get into it too. It would be hard not to with all the excitement. The staff are very understanding and even get into it as well. Even if it is sports, it's nice to see what a draw it is and how it brings residents and staff together.
