Definitely recommended

Overall, this is a very nice facility. I have two family members there: one in Memory Care and the other in an Assisted Living apartment. The staff in MC is lovely--friendly, helpful, reassuring, etc. They are always, always welcoming! They have a tough job, for sure. The move-in was fairly simple and there was plenty of support. There was a LOT to take care of the first few months, which was overwhelming at times, but that gets better! Patience is required for special requests, such as revamping TV wiring, etc. but it all gets done. The maintenance people are also very nice! The food is very good here--my mom has gained some weight, which she really needed! I am most impressed with the medical staff--they have kept such a close eye on things and take care of everything so efficiently it is almost seamless. That's a big relief--to know that my mom and other loved one have good care. The physical therapists have done wonders for my mom especially--they are outstanding! Dementia and old age is hard, but we have peace of mind knowing that our loved ones are safe and well-cared for. It is pricey, but I would definitely recommend Bear Creek to others who are looking for a really reliable facility.... Read more

Great except for one staff member

Was going to give a five star review as all the staff members are great, helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. Had to cut the five star review in half solely due to this particular employee....would not recommend this facility as your first choice unless you specifically ask this employee to stay away from your loved one.

The facility was clean. [Name removed] answered all my questions and showed everything I asked to see. The staff and residents were friendly. Since we are looking for respite care at this point, this is a viable option. I sensed my loved one will have good, attentive care.

Nice but not for Mom

This community is nice and clean. The staff was helpful when I asked questions. The ground were nice and they had nice activities. We didn't choose this one due to the distance, to far for us.

Care and comfort for mom

This was a nice tour that we had for the care of mom. I like the staff who were able to show us the community. I was not to please with the cleanliness at the time of the tour that may have been taken care of. The menu was appealing of the healthy variety. The activities are offered to the residents who are able to participate. I would suggest that families tour the community for the care of a loved one.

Very friendly staff. Clean and has a good menu to choose from. Apts. come in different sizes and gave us a lot to choose from. I have had some problems with having my Mom's meds given to her. And for the $500 a month they charge to order store and give the meds I would say the first month was not worth it. Hoping things will get better

Horrible care!

The worst care I have ever experienced in my life! If you care about your loved one who actually needs ANY medical care.... I urge you to look outside the tour, on the non wealthy side. Awful care. Yes it looks nice. But, if you truly want professional care... You can barely get help when your loved one truly needs it!

A Different Level of Care

I had a helpful and friendly person give me a tour and provide me with useful resources. I felt they were fantastic people to work with. They were willing and always offering to help me find a good fit for my parents. It did not feel like a sales experience. I liked that all the Brookdale's work together. They provided a different level care that did not fit my parent's needs.

Comfort for mom!

The care from the staff has been great, they make my mother feel comfortable and welcome. The meals are very good, my mother really enjoys them and says they have a good taste. The community itself is very clean and maintained well. I would recommend this Brookdale to anyone looking because they are good at what they do.

An Wonderful Tour Of The Facility

We went to tour this community and the staff did well showing us their activities, living areas and room that were available, it went very well. They were professional and ready. i thought that it was an excellent community but it was too huge, my loved ones were looking for a much smaller community.

Big place!

The Brookdale Bear Creek is massive. I felt like they wouldn't be able to give individual attention, but now that I have done more research, it seems like they are more capable to handle different levels of care than other places.

Worth taking a look at!!

I did not get to take a tour of this community as once I spoke to them we realized dad would be better in another community. This community is more for assisted living and we needed memory care. They were great and upfront making sure that we had all the information we needed to make the right choice for dad. They cared more about the resident and not the money.

Affordable and a lovely environment.

This facility is lovely and yet more affordable than many others we looked at. Our mom lived here for while several years ago and now we have moved another relative here. It is still the nicest and most affordable mid-range Assisted Living facility in the area. The staff is very caring and there are lots of activities. The dining room offers nice food and a restaurant environment where residents can even order wine with their meal. But only one glass, which is wise. The only problem we have encountered is trying to line up the local phone service. It has happened both times we have moved a loved one in. You have to insist with the local phone company that they send a warm body to the facility and not try to connect locally. That was a hassle that I feel is unnecessary. Overall I would give this place a nine out of ten.

We have a very special case!

Our situation is a bit different from most. My in laws are current residents of Brookdale Bear Creek and also have my brother in law who suffers from down syndrome living with them as well. With those special circumstances i must say the dealing with the staff and seeing how they interact with my family has been quite amazing! They are very accommodating and attentive! What we appreciate most is that they are very good at communicating with us and keep us updated on their well being! i would definitely recommend!
