I went to Brookdale Riverwalk. The only thing I didn't care for was the layout. The hallways seemed to be a little smaller, so it seemed a little bit more confined, but everything else was top-notch. It was nice. I liked their dining area. I liked their game room. I liked their entertainment. I liked everything they had. The staff was very helpful and very understanding. I did not observe any activities, but they gave me the list and told me what they had to offer. I've been going to these places at lunchtime, so the dining area was very full of people.

We toured Brookdale Riverwalk. I had viewed other facilities, but this seemed to be a good match for my uncle.

We toured Brookdale Riverwalk. I had viewed other facilities, but this seemed to be a good match for my uncle. The staff was very informative, and cordial, and introduced me and my uncle to everyone at the facility. The staff also explained the benefits of living at the facility. We saw a room that was available at the time and had lunch with a friend of his who lives there. My uncle was very impressed by the number of available activities. Transportation was another concern and so was location and its proximity to me. So, overall, he was very, very impressed with it. We saw a studio apartment with a large bathroom. He's wheelchair-bound, so there's plenty of room for his wheelchair to go into the bathroom and up to the sink into the shower area. It had its own kitchenette, too. In that particular wing, there was always staff on call 24/7 for him. They would check with him periodically at any time of the day or night. It was a very nice room and a good location. He was very pleased. The dining facility was available all day into the early evening hours, so anytime he felt like being able to eat, he would be able to go into the dining room. He didn't have to go in at a certain time. They have exercise classes, movies, computer classes, and a nice library. He's visually impaired and the library has a large magnifier where you put a book underneath so he can read the book. He was very impressed by the library. We didn't go outside of the facility to see the courtyard, but they had one with tables and chairs, so he could be outside if he wanted to. There was a daily list of available activities and a calendar for the month. There's also a menu for the month. It checked off everything that he wanted to. It was very, very good food with a good selection. Brookdale is often a busy road but it's a larger facility and it's gated so it's a little bit secluded.
