Memory Care
The community is always clean. Every time we visit, my mother's apartment is always clean and the bathroom is always clean. Very high marks for cleanliness. Some of the staff is a bit friendlier than others, but they are all great with the residents. The care could be improved for the higher needs residents. The staff is really good about engaging the residents in activities. If a resident does not want to participate, they are good about encouraging them to do so in the future. Corcoran House is definitely worth the price. During the Covid-19 pandemic, we think Corcoran House is doing everything they can do protect the residents. During the community lock down, the staff has really stepped up to assist further than usual. It has been very difficult for my mother to be in quarantine.
Brookdale is terrific! They have wonderful policies and procedures in place, even before the Covid-19 pandemic, the community was spotless. My parents love the staff. Everyone I run into as well is terrific; from the director to the staff working the dinning room. There is a range of times for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, which not all communities offer. They always have a pleasant attitude. The care is excellent. In terms of the other services, like the food, they do a great job accommodating for my parents' needs. They have an activities director that provides a wide variety of activities available to them if they want. They also have smaller services available just in case, which is great. They have even done personal shopping for my parents to make sure they stayed safe during the pandemic. I like that they have smaller services available for those who only need a small amount of help, but don't yet need assisted living. We also really like that they have shuttle services available for the residents and they will take them off-community for activities. The rooms themselves are very big compared to other communities in the area equipped with full-sized kitchens. Brookdale Cushing Park is also in a great location, they are right by the park and that makes it easy for my parents to get out and enjoy nature. They are a hidden gem!
We chose the Enclave based on a personal recommendation, as well as in-person shopping other local assisted living residences. We moved my mother in just a week before the pandemic restrictions were put in place, so naturally, all of the plans and expected life-enriching activities were severely curtailed. In my case, I had to visit the facility weekly to refill my mother's medications, which gave me a familiarity with much of the staff. My mother had to be moved into the memory care wing, and subsequently was placed on hospice care status. Once she was on hospice care, restricted in-room visitation with full ppe was allowed. This gave me added confidence in the staff. They truly understand and give excellent care to the residents, which I observed first hand. I must also give highest compliments to the vigilance of the staff on the steps they take to keep everyone in the facility Coronavirus safe. If you are moving your loved one during the pandemic, it will be a harder adjustment than during normal times, but I'm still very happy with the level of care, and feel no one could do better. I would suggest that if you are new to the process, you talk to other people who have been through this with their family member. There are differences and small details to be aware of between facilities to find the best fit, but the Enclave still get my vote as a truly great choice.
