I would highly recommend. They bent over backwards working with us to get my dad back there after his horrible rehab experience at another facility. We picked this community because of the number of people (good op for socialization), staff friendliness, food quality, cleanliness.
This is one of the best places I have ever visited. My loved one has improved in their attitude. The best thing is they have continuation of care here and my loved one won't have to move. This is exactly what I wanted for my loved one. There are three meals a day provided by the community and the residents have choices to choose from. There are a lot of activities for the residents to choose from.
We're very pleased with how things have turned out with The Brookshire, it is a very nice place! The community is well kept and clean, and the staff are all very friendly! They provide a high level of service, and the nurses are all very attentive. My loved one also really seems to like the food!
