Brentwood at Elkhart Independent Living

I would tell them they have a great community there. She enjoyed every minute she had there. Along with field trips and activities. I just wished we could have moved her in sooner.

Everyone was very friendly, helpful, and understanding with the whole process of us picking a place and then getting her moved in. The other residents were all so welcoming to my mom. She was making new friends from day one. There are always activities going on and a good variety of them. The staff has been so nice. Everyone knew who she was on the first day. Their friendliness seems very genuine and they enjoy working there. My mom is also always saying how great the food is. She says that she is very happy living at Brentwood Elkhart. It was a tough process but I am very glad that we decided on her living there.

There are a lot of people here who are easy to talk to and everyone is caring. I have a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment and I am really happy, it is the right size for me. I know that there are some rooms available now.

Very fun and friendly. A lot of activities are always planned. We picked this community because of the location, price and the apartment.

They have a lot of things to do, regarding the activites. I picked this community because it was affordable, and I really liked the apartment that I have. There has been an increase in the rent. They can do more things, to make the residents feel like familiy. It would be nice, if packages could be delivered to the door. They deliver meals daily to the residents, but that delivery is an extra cost.

My experience has been good so far, the community is very clean and the staff members are fantastic. The food is very good and if there is something I do not like they give plenty of alternative. They do the best they can with the activities and I do think the value is pretty good.

The meals and dining services are improving, and the communication sometimes it is not as clear as i would like for it to be. Something will come up and i hear it from a resident instead of a staff member which would be my worst complaint. I do like the staff, they are very caring people.

There is an ease of transition, they have a lot of things to make that transition easier. the director is amazing and is very personable and very hands-on. The communication is really good also. I would recommend this community to others.

My mom is very happy at Brentwood at Elkhart. We chose this facility because of the affordability and they were more down to earth and seemed more relaxed and willing to deal with some deficits my mom had to keep her in independent living for as long as possible. The apartment she has is great, there is a lot of storage, a full kitchen and big closet. The best part about the community is how welcoming all of the staff members are.

My mom lived here for 15 years until she was almost 100 yrs old. She loved having her own 2 bedroom apartment where my sisters could come visit often yet stay in a separate room. Mom liked to make morning coffee & toast in her apartment then go to the dining room for all her meals and to see her many friends. The staff is friendly and loving and treated my mom like she was THEIR own family. This is a beautiful well kept building - very safe and secure. There are lots of activities if one wants to participate.

My husband, and I am doing very well since our move to this community. It is a lovely community with very kind people. Everyone here is very friendly, and the staff is very helpful whenever needed. They keep the community spotless, everything is very well-kept. They offer good activities, and provide nice meals. The experience is going very well for us in this community, and we would recommend it.

Very nice place...long halls tho and I would have to purchase a scooter after a while. Don't think I saw one while i was there.

My mother in law is having some ups, and downs since her move to this community. However we are pleased with all they have done for us. This is a nice community with good people. The staff is great, they are taking good care of her. The community is well-kept, when I visit everything looks great. As far the care she is being provided with, we are comfortable with that. She may need more care than they are able to provide, but overall it is a community I would recommend.

My father is finally taking the time to get adjusted to this community. It is a very nice place, and I'am satisfied with all they have done for us. He seemed to had gone through a ruff adjustment phase, but things have gotten better now. The staff is very kind, and polite. There activities offered for the residents. It is a lovely community, and I would recommend it.

My mother is receiving healthy proportioned meals. She has been engaging a lot with the other residents in the community. So far, she absolutely loves this place the staff are all attentive and they have great communication with her and the family. One of my concerns is that the maintenance personal have been taking long trying to fix something that my mother has been needing.

We were very happy with this community. Staff members were excellent and answered all of our questions that we had. It was a very clean and beautiful community. They have alot of activities there for everyone. We would highly recommend this community for families looking for great care.

Our experience with Brentwood at Elkhart has been a very good one, overall! The people here are friendly and helpful, and the facility itself is always very clean and well kept. We toured quite a few communities in the area and I was really impressed with the size of the rooms here! My one suggestion for them would be that the food could use a little work. My loved one tells me that the breakfast is usually very good, but the dinners can be hit or miss.

As far as the building is concerned and the areas here, living areas and so forth, that's alright. The biggest complaint, or concern that anyone you'll talk to her (a resident) will say is their food is not the best. There are times when they make an excellent meal, othertimes, its a long way from being excellent. I suppose you can take that with a grain of salt because there's a lot of people here, its like the army, there was always someone griping about the food. The activities seem to be okay, there's quite a bit of activity going and they're well planned. It's all women, older women, course that's natural with the way were living now, the women are always outnumbering the men so if the person thats thinking about moving in here is a woman I think she would have an easier time than the men, she would have a lot of companions and people to talk to.

Loved it loved it loved it. My loved one became way too impared and needed to move. They went out of their way though to help them, they were just really crabby and mean. Jeff was wonderful, their staff, boy, they are top notch and its a great value for the money. We hired people to take care of my loved one, they had an in house program, but they became too disabled to be there. It is a very beautiful place, very well run, but I felt it had just become too unsafe for my loved one.
