Charter of Vinings

The Brookdale Vinings was not a good fit for my father. When we walked back to the memory care unit, it was more of a dark setting. The lady that took me on the tour was very friendly, but I did not like the vibe I got from the place overall.

Hard to get over the strong, acrid smell of urine in the hallway. Room is nice and does not smell. People are nice. Good value.

This community was really nice and the people were really helpful. This community just did not offer the care that my mom needed. We also have had my grandmother here before so we were familiar with the community.

Everything seems safe and clean.

Definitely met and exceeded my expectations!

My father was here for a short time and was taken care of by a great staff. We found the community to be taken care of. Activities were offered, but he was not there long enough to participate. I would recommend for others needing care for a loved one.

I enjoyed the tour of Brookdale Vinings. The staff that took me on tour were very knowledgeable and took the time to answer all of my questions. The whole community was kept very clean. They did offer many activities for the residents.

Very nice with many actives. Th y do have a ten day minimum stay. I am looking for two to ten day stays

Thankfully my stay there was short and what an awful experience it was. They are very under staffed and I was only there for respite and did not get the proper attention I needed at the time. I remember waiting for a nurse for almost two hours just to help get myself dressed for dinner. The food there is terrible and half the time the things featured on the menu weren't available. The only dessert ever offered was Jello and most of the residents were not very high functioning like myself. The one good thing that I can say about the place is that the therapy they offer is fabulous. Other than that I am happy to be out of there and back at home.

So far our experience with Brookdale Vinings has been a very positive one, they've really exceeded my expectations! All of the people who work here, especially the management staff, have been very professional and approachable. I appreciate how upfront they are about their care practices and billing. It's been a tough adjustment for my loved one, but they're really trying their best to help him get settled in and feel at home.

I did not ask them the right questions regarding the activities that they put on. Most of them are just sitting in front of the TV and watching something, Everything else seems okay at the Brookdale Vinings though.

They have been very attentive and good with my Mother. She has advanced dementia. However, they could use more experienced staff especially on the weekends. I have even heard the staff (weekend staff) yelling at some of the patients.

At Brookdale Vinings they're struggling to fill up. The director is new, the nurses are new, about 50% of the staff is new. My father is bed bound. He is on hospice care. They are taking good care of him. Under circumstances they are sustaining him. The staff is very friendly. I am grateful to the staff there. They are doing the best they can.

I toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. The facility was well kept and clean, the rooms were very nice looking, and all of the staff I met seemed friendly and professional. We narrowed it down to this and one other community, and let our loved one pick. She ended up selecting the other community based on its location, but this is somewhere I definitely would have been comfortable placing my loved one!

Drab and dirty . I was not impressed with this facility at all. The location in Vinings is great, but it is need of a redo. Residents. I met just seemed sad. This ended up on the bottom of my list. They also were giving free rent on your 3rd and 4th month which was a red flag that the place was not on the top of anybody's list.

Great looking facility . Amanda in sales was way too pushy and I am no longer considering the site.

This did not end up being an appropriate level of care for our loved one. Shortly after moving in she fell and moved beyond what assisted living could provide. I would advise any other families looking in to this facility to be sure your loved one is not a fall risk, to avoid the same situation.

I thought Brookdale Vinings did an excellent job overall. Our experience with them, although short, was a good one. The staff were all very friendly and caring, and they take great care oft he people who live here. The facility itself is clean and well kept, and they have a lot to offer.

I have been extremely impressed with Emeritus and A Place for Mom . Every contact that I had with the personnel associated with or recommended by a place for mom were A+plus. I highly recommend seniors looking for assistance, specially if are relating to living situations, take advantage of the service provided by a place for mom. Emeritus has a great staff.

Friendly and professional staff and well maintained facility. Seems like a good fit for my wife.
