We chose Brookdale Vancouver Stonebrige because they gave us a complete, open door tour. No secrets of surprises. I would tell others to make sure and read all the materials and 'admission' papers.

The family thought this was the best community out of the all the communities we toured and we are happy with our decision. The staff communication with the family is good. There are three meals a day served in the dining room and there are options for the residents to choose from. The residents can request the meals be delivered to their rooms as well. Art, exercise, entertainment, lectures, religious services, and more are some of the activities offered to the residents.
