I am in charge of the care for a family member who because of a serious chronic condition cannot live alone. I have looked at many senior residences. Brookdale MacArthur Park is welcoming and supportive - a true community. From my initial work with the Sales department to move our family member into the facility (from another state, during the difficult COVID period,) to everyday interface with staff at the front desk, the business offices, the activities coordinator, medical /personal care staff, and up to the Director herself, our experience has been very positive. Staff are friendly and caring. They truly take initiative and go out of their way to help. It's impressive that the Director regularly asks for feedback from residents about conditions and care at Brookdale. Dining room food selections are very good and there are lovely spaces for the regularly planned social activities and family gatherings. We feel lucky to have found Brookdale MacArthur Park....

Yes, to see the layout of the rooms, you must give them all of your information first. Must be a trick place. Avoid at all cost. Why do they not allow you to see their rooms prior to giving them your information.

My mom has been at Brookdale for a little over 2 months and we are so pleased with the care she is receiving. I love the smaller community because it feels more like home and is much more personalized. Everyone knows each other, the staff is knowledgeable and caring, and they're always available to help family members with questions. I feel confident knowing my mom is in a safe and supportive environment.

My sister has been at Brookdale since February 2023. She has received excellent service from workers there. They try very hard to make sure we both are happy. The food is good and she enjoys eating in the dining room and has made friends there. Most of the residents are very friendly and go out of their way to be nice. Front desks people make you feel welcome as as you come in the door. No place is perfect but Brookdale is one of the best facilities I have been in.

My mother's room was a constant mess. She had little to no assistance cleaning it. Food was left out, ants crawling everywhere. I had to take ant traps over to try and deal with it. They suspected she had a urinary infection. I asked if they had tested for it, they said no, but they had ordered one. I went by several days later, still no test. She was very confused, I took her to urgent care her blood pressure was so low they admitted her to the hospital. Two weeks later she passed away from the infection they suspected she had but did nothing about.

December 9, 2022We take your comments seriously and are committed to providing quality care and services to our residents and their families. Our management team has reviewed these concerns and we wish to assure you the safety and well-being of our residents is our top priority.
Amazing to work with and great staff. We needed something quicker, and that is the only reason we choose a different community.
This community looked very good just at the end it came down to the one that we felt was located in the best place and that the care and providers that were offered fit our loved ones needs. The tour was good.
We chose Brookdale MacArthur Park because the facility is a little smaller and they also have a big covered front porch and he loves to sit out there. The grounds here are beautiful, it is a gorgeous facility. He is in a studio apartment and he has more than enough room. He raves about the food, the meals here are chef prepared. It has been a great experience so far and I would recommend to others looking.

We did a tour with this community and it was very nice. The tour was good and the staff was very friendly and helpful. They answered all of our questions and gave us lots of information to consider.
Our family had a virtual tour and obviously not being in the space makes it much harder to evaluate fully, however they did a great job taking us around the community.
We chose Brookdale MacArthur Park because she felt a connection with the person who was helping her out, so she is the one who chose it. The room sizes are good for her needs. They seem to be pretty strict about the whole covid thing and are following all the guidelines as they should. I would recommend to others.

We visited today, thinking about placing a family member. Smell of [removed] in hallways was overwhelming. At lunchtime, residents were still in robes and pajamas. Did not see residents smiling. Not a place we would place a loved one.

Lovely facility and staff was very welcoming. Would love to have my Mom there but price was too high for her budget. If they accepted medicaid after Mom's finances were exhausted we may have reconsidered, however they are private pay only.

My mother was only at this community for a short period of time, but while she was there we had no complaints of how things went for her. The staff where all wonderful and she enjoyed the social environment with the other residents. She had no complaints about the food and participated in some of the activities they had available . She just could not afford to stay there long term unfortunately.

My mother stayed here for two weeks and she gave it good ratings as far as the cleanliness and attentiveness. Based on her experience she would recommend them or go back if she needed to.

I toured many facilities along with Brookdale MacArthur Park. It was a nice place with nice people, but it was not the best for my loved one.

The Brookdale has been a very good place for my mother. It is much better than the place she was at before. I highly recommend them because they have good meals and a large variety of activities. Everyone is friendly and does their job, they don't run and hide like other packs.

My tour of this community was a nice one. They were very kind to my family and I. The community looked nice and well-kept. The staff I came across was friendly, and courteous. It was a good experience, but not the place for my mother and her needs.
