It's surprising to find out that it is a not-for-profit facility which means that once you are in they will keep you even if you run out of money.

The staff they got works hard everyday to be their best. As far as cleanliness goes it's getting better daily with little in the way of smells. Food is good but could be better. Activities are top notch they are genuinely concerned about entertaining residents. When you walking in you are greeted by the best receptionist. Would definitely recommend. 4 stars

My cousin was not bathed for several weeks at a time! The so called meals were a joke! Who would serve a person five pieces of toast for breakfast? No fruit or eggs or anything else with it just toast only! They took brand new clothes to the laundry and never brought them back and her name was written inside her clothes but was never returned. What about the night time nurses and aides all going outdoors to hang out with patients needing attention and the phones ringing off the hook and not answered! The receptionist during the day was very rude when asked to find the missing clothes that are still missing! This place is terrible! Do not trust your loved ones here, please consider other places!

I highly recommend staying away from Montgomery Care Center facility. When I am in town every 2-3…read moremonths, I visit my Uncle in long-term care. The majority of the nurses and just about all of the part-time nurse aids are disrespectful and could care less about what they do. It's clear that they are not being held accountable from management. They use profanity, raise their voices, and take their time. I stayed late one night, and witnessed a nurse aid sleeping in the lobby while 2 rooms had their help light on for over 20 minutes. While the service is poor, the facility also needs a huge renovation. They make it look nice on the outside, but the inside is completely outdated and desperately needs an update.

The rooms are very unclean and smell like Irvine, understaffed, soiled bedding, call buttons never work and parents have to wait 30 minutes for assistance when really needed. When I asked a caretaker when my Dad would fall how would they now to come in the room to help him! Answer: They wouldn't know to come in to help because the call buttons in the facility do not work. I guess that explains the staff screaming down the hallways. Due to the lack of care we have decided to look at other Senior Living options. This is very sad when you are trusting the facility meet your expectations after what bill of goods they sold us. My advise is if you really love someone then do not send them to Brookdale.

I was sitting with a friend who lived in assisted living there. I was in independent living at the time. I can only assume that the Lodge allowed a rumor to circulate that I was after his money. Never was this true. We had become friends and he needed help because his power of attorney was not taking care of his needs. He asked me to help him. In retrospect I guess I shouldn't have gotten involved, but I didn't know/realize that his family and the Lodge staff would turn on me. My intentions were honorable....This rumor should have been stopped by the DON. I stood up and tried to get my pamphlet back (it was information on power of attorneys for healthcare....it was NOT anything for him to sign. Thie entire situation was very much mishandled. They handcuffed me and sent me to jail for the night.....saying I was guilty of "physica laggression, and an attempt to cause harm to the aid.". Then when I returned to the facility, Crystal Flaherty DON came to my door with an eviction notice that gave me 24 hours to leave. This entire situation has cost me a lot of money (I have had to move twice). And I was to get on medicaid waiver after paying full price for two years....but the eviction happened just prior to the two year mark. I tried to discuss this with Edward Beatrice COO, but I have found that the Lodge employees stick together, and don't want to deal with the truth...he dismissed me. Then recently he sent me a letter telling me not to communicate with anyone at the Lodge and "to refrain from making or spreading false statements about "Caring Place" Wow....talk about the pot calling the kettle black!

She was well liked by the residents and their family, often receiving thank you letters and cards for going above and beyond what is expected of her. In Feb. 2012 the fuel pump went out on her car. She brought in a receipt for repair, but was still written up. Now this alone seems fairly cruel to discipline someone for something unexpected that could happen to anyone. But what really takes the cake. Easter Sunday she was scheduled to work and woke up to a dead battery. Again she called her job, left messages, and brought in a receipt. The following Monday she worked, was off Tuesday, and FIRED Wednesday. The lack of compassion from the management here is rampant. The care more about their bottom line than for the years of hard work and dedication their staff put in. Just imagine putting your vulnerable loved one in the care of these types of people. Imagine how far they would go to pocket as much of your hard earned money they can.
