Brookstone of Clemmons

My husband was at Brookstone of Clemmons. He has already checked out. He was just there for a couple of months, but I was very content with his care there. He was in memory care. There were about 10 residents. It's one floor. I asked for a single room for him, but I think some of the rooms were double rooms. There were three meals a day, and the food was excellent. I ate there with him sometimes. The staff were very friendly. He went on activities with the assisted living people because he is very alert and likes to talk. The lady who does the activities for assisted living always made sure he was part of their group, which I appreciate so much. They were going out for a bus ride. Then they would stop by Wendy's and get the Frosty here. My husband would get a Chocolate Frosty and he loved that. Then there were some films. Entertainers would come in like guitar players, piano players, and singers. He enjoyed that. They knew he played harmonica, so when they were doing maybe ice cream or a snack out in the little garden, they would encourage him to play his harmonica for them, which he of course loved doing. I usually came in the late afternoon, so I was not paying much attention to the activities that went on during the day. But I know my husband would always tell me if he would go out with a group because he enjoyed that. I thought the place was lovely, and I thought the place was very nice, but he did not like it because there was no one for him to talk to. The staff seemed to be doing what they were supposed to be doing. It's a beautiful place.

My friend is in the process of moving into Brookstone Terrace of Clemmons. The place is very nice. They have a nice sitting room and a fireplace. It is all open and it is all on one floor. It is easy to get around inside. They have large rooms. There are two people in a room, but it could accommodate two patients adequately. My friend would have enough room for a bed, a recliner, and a TV. They prepare meals. At night, they've assured me that the residents have adequate care. It's a small community, and overall, it's the best fit for my friend's needs, from financial to physical.
