Brookstone Alzheimer's Special Care Center in Salem, OR

3.9
What we like the most about the Brookstone Alzheimer community is that it is clean and the residents are well taken care for. We would recommend this community to other families but it depends on residents needs. I don't think there is enough activity...they just took away what there was.

My mother [Removed] is at Woods. My sister [Removed] said you are doing an excellent job with our Mom. I 'm in Yuma, Az and won't be able to visit Mom till April. Then I can see first hand how my Mom is doing. Thank you [Removed]

Country Meadows Village in Woodburn, OR

The facility is not too big. Not too small. Privately owned. Everyone knows my mother. The three closets in her one bedroom apartment is what really sealed the deal for us!
