Memory Care
We chose Brookdale West Hartford because I knew the sales rep. We needed to make a quick move and they were amenable to everything we requested and it is was in a good location as well. The staff are very accommodating. The sales staff, nurses, activity director, CNA's - everybody. My only complaint is the food. My loved one was a picky eater and she was very limited on her options and you did not know in advance. It was probably ok for others, just not for her situation. I would definitely recommend Brookdale to others.
My parents are very happy and comfortable at the Hoffman community. The place is clean and well maintained. Everyone there is so nice, from the residents to the staff members. The food is good and they have so many activities.
They have done a really good job at keeping me informed. My mom is in the memory care unit, so there is a lot of extra care that is involved. But they do a good job of staying on top of any issues that arise. We decided to have her care transferred from her primary care doctor to the doctor associated with Brookdale, and I feel like she's getting very good care there. My mom loves the food, and she's eating well. They do a really nice job at keeping them busy in the memory care unit as well. I never could have guessed that we would end up needing care when we did, and everything happened so fast. It was a tough transition to make, but they did everything they could do to not overwhelm me and to make it as smooth and easy of a process as possible.
