About 3 1/2 years we moved our 90-year-old parents into Brookdale Assisted Living in Wayne, NJ. It was close to us so we could visit every day. They enjoyed making new friends, the entertainment, special events, and parties, dining (especially home made soup every lunch time) and of course BINGO. After we lost Dad, we moved Mom into the memory care unit in the same building. There we found exceptional caregiving. The girls treat the residents with patience, kindness, compassion, and they are always singing and making them laugh. I am very comfortable knowing I can go on vacation and Mom will be very well taken care of. It’s definitely a “ peace of mind”. [name removed] is in charge of the memory care, a perfect person for the job. Brookdale is run by two competent women, [name removed] and [name removed] who will cater to all your needs. At the front deck is a very welcoming woman named Lori who will assist you in any way she can. You should check this place out, it’s very attractive and clean.... Read more

I am so glad that my cousin who was suffering from ALS chose to move into Brookdale Wayne, an assisted living facility for seniors. Over his stay I was very impressed by the sincere concern that the entire staff had for both his physical and emotional well being. His needs were continually re-evaluated to assure that the level of necessary care would be quickly adjusted. The nursing staff is excellent proving daily their high level of expertise in delivering senior health care. I observed only the highest level of respect and courtesy from staff members to all residents, family members and friends. A true sense of a caring community is evident. The high level of compassionate care delivered is not only felt by the resident staying there, but extends well beyond the walls to their family members and friends. If you are searching for a five star assisted living facility; do yourself a favor and give Brookdale Wayne a visit.

Tour guide never said hello to residents as we passed. People seemed not engaged. The Main Street idea was nice.

Brookdale Wayne is a lovely community with the most amazing staff -- the director and her team went way above and beyond to help accommodate my mother. The community is beautiful with many activities available for their residents.

I am impressed by the sincere concern that the administrators and staff of the Brookdale Senior Community ave for the physical and emotional welfare of each one of the residents. Within the walls of Brookdale,, you have created a home in which people of age can find pleasure,companionship, and, most importantly, a reason to face each new day with hope and a smile. It's also a delight to witness the respect and courtesy with which all those who work at Brooksdale treat each other. Lastly any place that allows dogs entree cannot be bad. How old does my dog have to be to become a resident?

Rooms were very nice but overall it's not for us. Understaffed. No outdoors to speak of (i.e. porch, walking grounds, etc.) And when/if time comes, only 1 medicaid bed available. Because of that, it is not a true "age in place" type of home we are looking for. Staff also gave me the impressions of being rigid. Too many rules for a true assisted living feel. Also, rooms were layed out very odd. Shared rooms had bathroom in one of the bedrooms as opposed to in the common area (No privacy in that!).

So far everything is working out pretty well for my husband here at this community. I know he is being cared for well, he is in good hands here. They have a very nice staff at this community, they have been very friendly. There are activities available for the resident. It is a bit expensive, but it is a very nice place. So far we are satisfied with all they have done for us.

This is a very nice community and my tour went well. The staff was kind and welcoming. My questions were answered, the staff was informative. From what I saw the community looked great. Unfortunately they do not offer memory care and that is what my mother needed. Overall it was a pleasant tour.
