The very best in Tyler.

Brookdale Palestine
4.9

Brookdale Palestine is the BEST. They treat the patients like family. I have been at peace knowing they will take care of my sister. The staff are wonderful with the patients. I have had my sister in several facilities. AND HANDS DOWN BROOKDALE PALESTINE IS THE BEST. The food is awesome. They accommodate the patients with what they like to eat. You couldn’t ask for a better caregiver’s.A wonderful place that doesn’t have a lot of turnover.

East Texas Alf Reunion Inn, LLC in Tyler, TX

They have activities but he doesn't participate because he's antisocial. Before his wife died they had actually lived there before so he wanted to come back. They're smaller than most places so they can pay more attention to things, they're also a local company so there was the local touch instead of the corporate attitude.
