Maybe covid caused severe lack of employees. My brother's diaper was not changed frequently. I saw a dry piece of microwave pizza served many times. Only 1 young woman knew how to relate to his Alzheimer's issues. Frequently staff was in some back room and I couldn't find anyone to discuss issues with. I stayed quite a while waiting, no one came out and the few staff didn't seem to want to go get anyone. Only a few of his clothes were in his closet but lots of other people's, including women's! When I went to get them. His front tooth was missing and no one could tell me why? No nail care at all. None of his shampoo etc could be found when I went to gather his things. Their idea of managing changing clothes etc was for several to tackle and hold him down. He went to [community name removed] in flat rock.

I had a good tour of Brookdale Asheville Walden Ridge. They showed us a lot of amenities and showed us a lot of the things that were available for the residents. They had game nights. They had an open-air area for the residents to enjoy the outside. They had barbecue grills for cookouts. The facility was clean, it was up to standards, and it was unique. The grounds were well kept.
Read moreWe appreciated Walden Ridge so much. The kindness and care that the staff gave not only my Mother in Law but us too was a true gift. We felt loved and supported through a difficult yet beautiful time.
Most of the staff are good, some are not. This facility is ok, but could be much better. We've had health concerns with my loved one and they've agreed to make changes to stay on top of those and/or avoid those and they don't follow through.

Most of the staff are good, some are not. This facility is ok, but could be much better. We've had health concerns with my loved one and they've agreed to make changes to stay on top of those and/or avoid those and they don't follow through. I'm paying extra for meal assistance, but have gone to visit during meal times and there's no one in her room assisting her. At times, she's just been laying in her bed and the food is on the table. She had a UTI and the executive director told me that she would take care of it and there was no need for an ER visit. Come to find out, the doctor wasn't even going to be there to be able to see her for another week. He only comes once a week or so. This facility is well laid out and is the only memory care focused facility in this area. I guess I'd recommend them for consideration to family and friends, but with caution. I think people should decide for themselves based on their loved one's needs. It's not a terrible place, but definitely not what I thought it was going to be and not a good fit for my loved one. I've already found her a new facility and will be moving her soon.

My tour at the Brookdale Asheville Walden Ridge was over the top. I was very pleased with them. They are the ones that have followed up with me and tried to help me (more than any other place). It was clean. The staff was very receptive and very nice. The director or sales manager was very helpful. They had a lot of activities for their patients. They had a lot of activities inside and out. They would take them on small trips. The dining area was very nice and well-kept; the whole place was well-kept. There's an area with rehab, which was really good.

I would recommend to others to look at other communities. There is a high turnover of aides, and this isn't always providing consistent care, or housekeeping. The laundry of the residents either ends up with other resident's rooms or in other portions of the community. The personal hygiene care products isn't always getting to my loved one's room. The personal shampoo and other hygiene products aren't being used for my loved one. There were additional care costs added on prior to discussing with the family, and we had to work with the community to get these charges removed from the monthly billing.
