My father-in-law has moved into Brookdale West St. Paul. It's wonderful. It's a smaller community, and my father-in-law, coming from living on a 70-acre farm, is not super social. So, it's not crowded and it's perfect for him. The room is very spacious. He has his bed, a recliner, a TV, and a nightstand. There's a refrigerator, where he can keep some snacks and sodas in. He has his own bathroom and a nice closet where his dresser is. It's very homey, but when my family of five goes to visit him, we can be in the room comfortably. I feel like it's a very good value for money. As memory care is not inexpensive, they're taking very good care of him. He gets all of his meals and laundry. They have activities for him to do. He hasn't participated yet, but they do have outings that he can go on. My father-in-law is very religious, and they have services once a week. They do have a barbershop salon. I don't think he's used it, but I saw it. They have a very large yard that you can take advantage of, and in the memory care, they have a part of it that's fenced off so he can go out in the yard. They have flower boxes set up that he can garden in, he loves that. The staff is incredibly responsive and willing to work with us. We went on the 15th for his intake interview, my father-in-law was coming from over 4 hours away, and he's in a considerable amount of pain from being in a car that long. They bent over backward to allow him to move in that same day. The staff is just super accommodating. They've been willing to help him out with anything he needed. They're very knowledgeable, and they all take the time to get to know the residents. The facility is immaculate looking, and well kept up. The exterior is gorgeous, and the interior is equally kept up.

I like the arrangement at Brookdale West St. Paul. The patients have small rooms, but there are a lot of activities. That's good for me because it's obvious that they don't have everything taking place in the room. They have a lot of group rooms and stuff like that. The cost list, at first glance, seemed agreeable. It's been my first choice out of four facilities so far. They have games, entertainment, and social things where the clients are mixing, with one another. The people there are pretty...

I toured Brookdale West St. Paul. I liked the fact that the staff were very friendly and very helpful in explaining the details about the facility. It was a great place, but it's not affordable, and that's my stumbling block. Overall, it was nice. The rooms were clean, and a place I'd want to put my loved one. They had a dining room, a group room, and a secured patio area. Overall, the place was very secure. I wouldn't worry about leaving my family member there and knowing that it was not secure...

My friend is at Brookdale West St. Paul. It's a nice community in a residential area. It's two separate buildings, single level, small, and there are only 19 residents in each building. One is assisted living, and one is memory care. I can't go in but I was given a virtual tour, and from what I can see, it's well kept and clean. I have been able to look in at our friend's apartment from an outside window, and it looks nice. It fits the need we were looking for. The staff members have been wonde...

We visited Clare Bridge and we liked it a lot, but they didn't have any openings at the time for what my mom could afford. They only had private rooms, no elderly waiver. It's just one floor and it's kind of in a square. It's set up in big, open areas where the residents dine in an open kitchen. The dining area was open right in the center like a restaurant. All tables and chairs are centrally located right off the kitchen. The way it's set up seemed very ideal for a person who has Alzheimer's. ...

This facility appeared to be great for their residents. They had a caring core of staff, that seemed to be expertly trained on the multiple facets of the disease. They had on-call physicians and neurologists to expedite gaining prescriptions that may be necessary. Rooms seemed very cozy and appealing to the types of people at the facility. While visiting my grandfather there, I did notice that the staff all knew him by name, which was very important to me. I even was able to set up an appoi...
