Brookdale Union had large rooms. I didn't get much of a chance to see much of the community. The person that was taking me on the tour felt very rushed and I wasn't comfortable with her in particular. But all of the staff that I met along the way were very friendly. When I went to the dining area, they weren't serving food at that time. It seemed to me the rooms themselves were maybe a little bit larger by a few feet. I didn't get a good feeling about it. They didn't have any brochures, so she wrote all the costs down in my notebook because they didn't have any paperwork available. The dining area was very clean and very spaced out. You can see it could hold a large number of people. Everything looks nice. They had very nice walkways around the building.

My mother is situated at Brookdale Union, and everything is going very well. They have very nice people who give very good care. I've interacted with some of the staff members, like the ladies that come into her room, and I've naturally met the executive director and administrative personnel. They are very, very competent, very professional women. Her room is very nice, everything is nice and kept up. My mother has truly enjoyed the meals, they have very nice food preparation. My mother has a newsletter. They get a newsletter every week with activities and everything, and a calendar for the whole month. They also get handouts each day on what's going on that day. They have beauty and hair facilities, they have activities, meet and greets, discussions, they play bingo, they walk and talk with each other, and look at the birdcage or the fish. They have a variety of things, they also meet and discuss topics sometimes, it's very good. They have a mixed group of people of various ages. Some people can see, some can't, and there are guys that can't hear, so they have a variety of things to consider. And most of the people are 70 some years old or above. There are some places that are better, but could cost $3,000-4,000 more, and some places are probably worse. I'm very thankful that I made the right decision. Considering all, it's a positive environment, so it works for us.
Read moreBrookdale Union was affordable. It felt like home. I met and talked to a staff member and I liked that she was clear, concise, and gave me the information I needed. I also liked the size of the rooms and how clean the place was. They weren't updated, but they were still in good condition.

Brookdale Union is good at keeping my father-in-law up and looking after him. He's moved into their assisted living and I'm well pleased with it. The design is wonderful and the upkeep is good. They have some real hard workers there too. They're very caring and they work hard taking care of the many residents. They have plenty of activities but my father-in-law doesn't care to do any. He says that the food is very good though and he likes what they serve him. I think he gets good value from it.

My friend has moved into Brookdale Union and has been there for two weeks now. The staff is warm, caring, genuinely interested in the welfare of the residents and very helpful. We had a few abnormal things that happened during the move-in, but they were very gracious and helpful. My friend said the food is mostly OK, but she's very particular with the food. Her room is very clean and pretty spacious considering that she is in a semi-private room. They had repainted and recarpeted it before she moved in, so it was in a new condition. They aren't utilizing the dining area at the moment because of Covid, but it looked like a dining room/activity area. It looked warm and clean. They had Christmas caroling the other day. They have arts and crafts. I don't know everything that they do, but I know some of the things that my friend has done. They got to see some decorations, and they created some angels for the tree. I'm very happy about this place. It's one of the most affordable places that we found.
