About the facility
Brookdale North Oaks

Live the life you’ve aspired to pursue, at Brookdale North Oaks. With easy-to-navigate floor plans, soothing wall colors, and plenty of homey features, residents can find safety and support here each day. The centerpiece of the community includes the recreation of a Town Square, which features the unique details of a small town using faux storefronts and a lamp post.

The memory care program at Brookdale North Oaks provides a person-centered approach to care. The Clare Bridge and Solace methods used are designed to preserve residents' identity and help them thrive. These programs provide residents with six structured activities each day. Residents can also participate in music and sensory activities and receive assistance with medication management and other specific needs.

Residents and families alike can find peace of mind knowing that staff is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to be alerted to an emergency. A 24-hour security system, as well as keypad entries, are also used as additional on-site safety measures.

Three homemade meals are served each day, and mealtimes are managed as part of residents’ daily routines, in an effort to reduce confusion. This means that everyone will sit together at the same time and table each...

Turn the ship around...leadership and direction required
In my research of facilities I have found that it is impossible to determine the true operating performance of the facility until the resident is installed. The promises given prior are often abandoned with staffing difficulties, inadequate training and the lack of facility systems. The best efforts of the staff and management, while applauded, may not satisfy the extended families. The alarming transition of staff may leave both the resident and facility in a precarious position of support. Having installed the resident the effort to relocate is very traumatic on the resident who is already compromised. The vetting of "A place for Mom" falls woefully short in its presentation of facilities. The extended families, often in a crisis mode, is left with little choice often as a location may be required and the due diligence of the family limited due to the overall lack of transparency. "A place for Mom" has the ability to play a crucial place in this role. Currently it falls short.

A great choice for memory care
The staff has been very helpful and caring. The rooms are a little bit smaller than other facilities that we visited. But the size is sufficient and forces my mom to get out and be with people. That was one of the things I was looking to do.

More training needed
My mom got fairly good care. She was not there very long. Satisfied with care until she had an untreatable fracture and went on hospice. It was a battle to get medication to her for comfort. Mostly good people but needed a little more training on end if life care. This is something they should be better at. They really did quite well with her before she was dying. She had behavior issues and she wasn't easy. Mostly good people there. Like I said, needed to be educated more about focusing on comfort care when appropriate

This facility does have its bright spots. They included food, some staff, and engaging activities. But they also have significant turnover, very poor communication, and some snotty and disrespectful staff.

A nice community with room for approvement.
They look overworked. But as far as the aides, they rarely interact with the residents on down time. They're mostly on their phone. Again, short staffed and they cut the staffs hours. When I visit, I rarely see someone. They are fed well. Almost too well. They bring out a 3 course meal with is not necessary. The amount of the food wasted is embarrassing. And my Mom is paying for the waste. Very little activity. Exercise in the morning and bingo in the afternoon. All of which are done through YouTube. Very little one in one. I moved my Mother from [community name removed]. [community name removed] was phenomenal with activities. My mother is higher functioning and very bored. It is an old facility. In all honesty, it is not a good facility. In fact, I'm looking to move my Mother. I would never recommend Brookdale if says anything. Horrible management

I am a retired pastor and have been in a few nursing homes/care centers and can rate the categories. It takes an extraordinary program to get a 5 in all categories but that is what I would give Brookdale North Oaks. I recommend Brookdale North Oaks to others. When looking for a care center for my wife I asked: Is there a cohesive purpose for the existence of this facility. Is it apparent in the kindness, care and attention directed to residents? Is the staff happy to be working here (this work is not easy). -I would suggest a checklist for the move in process. -Meals are good. -I would have liked a warning about a price increase the second month.

Very Peaceful Place, No Chaos Whatsoever
The community is occasionally short-staffed, like other communities are. They do a good job in trying to cover all aspects of the jobs needed to be done to care for the residents. There are three meals a day served, and there options available to choose from. In addition to meals, the community provides snacks to the residents. Some of the activities available include: musical entertainment, exercise programs, and more for the residents to engage with.
