I have mixed feelings about this facility. On one hand, the staff seems really nice. My mother…read moresaid the food was good. And in Skilled Nursing, there seemed to be a stream of people in and out but we as family, had to be there there 8 am - 8 pm once she was unresponsive because unless we asked for help with hygiene tasks or ensuring meds were given, we didn't see them done without being present. Her room seemed to be reasonably clean. And we added Hospice to her care team so that fills in some gaps that don't seem included in Skilled Nursing. Downsides are things like Call Buttons not working. Forced movements during PT that cause injuries, even when my mother objected. The swelling in her ankles made her ankles hit equipment and her leg became raw and inflamed to the degree a blanket on her skin was painful. Staff not being sure what time medications were administered. (we asked about a dose and although they said they gave it, no one could say when or give a time. And a family member was visiting ( that family member was ME) and no one came in while I was there so was she given meds or not? We were a bit concerned because not even a time could be confirmed through a chart. Worrisome. No one there (including me!) knows how to put in hearing aids!! I googled this process to learn how to insert them because my mother was frantic without them and I had zero experience with them. She (my mother) was bleeding from her foot, with blood pooling on the floor. No one noticed so I had to summon someone to bandage her up. My mother chose this facility and it was recommended by her doctors. She was lucid, cognitive and very involved her decisions when she arrived. This was her choice and a place she felt was the best fit for her (home or family living was no longer an option. The family really felt obligated to respect her wishes since she was fully capable of calling the shots.) She did pass away 22 days later. Maybe my expectations were too high. Or maybe I am just paralyzed by grief. I will say we were fortunate that we had 3 family members that took 4 hour shifts to be there for the 12 hours of visiting hours every single day. I can't imagine how things would have gone without our being there if she had lived long enough that we couldn't we there 7 days a week, 12 hours a day. Regardless of where my head is (grief stricken which is why I didn't review while she was still alive). I am still unsure on how I feel about the SNF side of Brookdale. Many things are in poor repair. Paint, scuffed walls, cracks in walls and doors, light and call buttons not working. My mother was self pay and for a shared room and 9300.00 a month, I thought ... I don't know... I guess I thought it should be cleaner and better maintained. Final note: parking was kind of a nightmare on weekends. Be prepared to park, then walk quite a distance to the entrance. I have a handicap placard but so does almost everyone visiting. So... OK if your loved one is lucid. Ok if you can be there long days and keep an eye on things we assumed they did in Skilled Nursing. The broken lights didn't affect care I guess but as a troubled family, we kind of expected better care (like not having to point out pools of blood or the fact she got bedsores in only 3 weeks and could they please reposition her more often? Then we had to ask them to do these things. It's a tough field to work in. Staff is understaffed and probably underpaid. I do know if I personally need this kind of care, with my children out of state, I would not want to come here.

They all care about the residents and family. -The executive director is very personable and approachable. -The facility is very nice and easy to get around, with a park near by and the shops at the Triangle. There are no "bad apartments" that I can see. -Contracts and policies are reasonable and senior friendly. Believe me, you should check this all carefully to avoid any nasty surprises. From past experience, what they tell you in sales is not necessarily to be believed. I am very glad we made the choice to move to these guys.

My husband and I came here over two years ago, and he passed away in March. I've chosen to stay here. We used every level of service as he deteriorated. My family and I believe he was as happy, loved, entertained and comforted more here than any other place we could have found. I have felt very protected since Covid 19 started with all protocols enforced. No place is perfect; not even at home.

He immediately understood my situation, my budget, and the level of care my dad needs. He selected the most appropriate options and even took me on a tour himself. Since I don't drive, he kindly drove me to each facility. Aaron is local and very familiar with the area's memory care communities. He had the most up-to-date pricing, availability, and real feedback from residents and families. On the first day, we visited three facilities -- all of them excellent, within my tight budget, and truly appropriate for my dad. I didn't need to look any further. The entire service was completely free of charge, which was such a relief during an already overwhelming time. I am incredibly grateful for Oasis and for Aaron's guidance.
