10 Best Memory Care Facilities in Mercer, TN

Brookdale Oaks is a great place in my opinion. Residents that I am acquainted with there all say great things about the place they live. The staff is always very friendly and helpful.

My parents are doing so well here in the memory care. The staff makes sure that they take part in the activities, and join them in the dining room and my parents like the food. They have a very nice room together and I know that my parents are safe and that the memory care is well secured. My father had walked out of another community so that has become a real concern for me but here I know that he is safe. I would definitely recommend scheduling a tour of this community.

My mom passed away after being at Alexandria Place for a year. We truly believe we would not have had the last year with her if it had not been for the wonderful, caring staff there. Mom really needed somewhere between assisted living and nursing home care. Until we visited Alexandria Place, we did not think such a place existed. It seemed to be one or the other and neither option would provide her with the quality of life we felt we should have. Of course, I made it very clear in my first letter how indebted we were to the staff at Alexandria Place; and over the course of the year Mom was there, those feelings did not change. In fact, our appreciation for the care she received grew. When I first wrote to you several months after Mom moved in, I had not met and gotten to know the administrator. I believe she was on leave when Mom came. She has been a joy to deal with. Anytime I have needed to talk with her, even after her regular workday was done, she responded immediately and helped with anything she could. The emergency room Doctor said it was not unusual for the family to arrive and then be told their loved one had passed away. She was compassionate enough to make what I am certain was a very difficult call to me so I did not walk into that ER without knowing what I faced. She offered to help me in any way she could and I gladly took her up on her offer. If not for her, we would have had to deal with so many things when we were emotionally raw and dealing with our loss. Thanks to her, we were able to come to Mom's room a couple of times and turn it all over to [name removed]. She asked me what we needed and wanted and then she simply took care of it. Everyone facing this situation should have someone like HER, but unfortunately, as we have learned from friends in similar situations, not everyone is as lucky as we were. You are very fortunate to have her but I'm sure you know that or she wouldn't be there! Thank you for all you do to help families with the care of their loved ones.
