10 Best Memory Care Facilities in Flat Rock Park, IN. Page 3

Traditions at Brookside is a wonderful facility. [name removed] did an amazing job with our tour and giving us all of the information and taking care of the admission process especially with Covid challenges. [name removed] is an amazing director. She even went herself to pick up cable for mom's telephone and installed it herself. I think the staff, nurses, therapists and aides are very helpful. They seem a little stretched and I think that is due to the challenges from all the Ccovid protocols necessary at this time. And I appreciate all of those precautions.

I ended up choosing this facility because I want my Mother to be close to me. The staff here is so friendly and they communicate with me about anything that happens to my mom. It’s really an upbeat community and it feels more like a hotel setting than assisted living. The facility itself is very clean and the housekeeper comes in every day and cleans her room. She empties the trash, tidies up the bathroom, and there’s a weekly linen change. For activities, they have trips into town, church services, and monthly family brunches. I would recommend this community.

When my sister and I were looking for a place for our mom, we had heard a lot about this community. We came to visit one time and there was a young woman coming out that had told us she just moved her grandmother in and how great it was. There were a lot of people that were telling us how amazing it was and it’s really lived up to that. It was really important that we find a community that offered more than one type of care because my mom did not want to have to move, and this place offers memory care, assisted living, and adult day care services. The staff is amazing and anytime we’ve had any questions or had any issues, they’ve been wonderful about helping. They give us an assessment each month to let us know how our mom is doing and I really like that. Mom says the food is good and there are plenty of options to choose from. If you don’t like what’s on the menu, they’ll give you the opportunity to get something else and she’s been able to do that a couple of times. Her room is very clean and stays that way and from what I can tell, the trash is done daily but I’m not entirely sure on that. My mom is still fairly active and they have someone that will help her carry her laundry down to the washer and dryer and sometimes even do it for her if she needs them to. They do a little bit of everything when it comes to activities. They’ll take the residents out for rides, play bingo, and a couple of times that I’ve been there on Fridays they’ll have someone doing the ladies’ nails. There was a time that I had gone to visit and everyone had “funny money” for a small auction they were doing and they would have everyone bidding on things. The other residents seem really friendly and welcoming and there are even several people from her previous home that have moved over, so she’s already got some good friends. The staff makes sure she’s taking her meds regularly, they check on her, make sure she’s up and moving around, eating regularly, and I think it’s been good for her. Overall, I would recommend this place.
