We toured Brookdale Palm Coast for my mother-in-law. The thing that I liked the best about them was that it was a small community, only one level. I believe they had 42 apartments there. And so, my mother-in-law liked that and we liked that as well. Since her memory is going, we felt like she would feel safer there because it's a smaller community. The main person who gave us our tour was very pushy and too much like a salesman, and that was a little bit of a turnoff for us. The rooms are adequate. There's nothing really special about them. They're fine. I don't have anything great to say or anything negative to say. They're just adequate. They're very small. They need to have different options for people when it comes to their meals. My mother-in-law is a vegetarian and they have no other options. The manager was a little rude at the time because she said this isn't a restaurant or a hotel. And that was kind of rude. She was saying that my mother-in-law could always eat their side items like mashed potatoes and vegetables and things like that, which is fine. But it would be nice if they did have some vegetarian options on the menu. At least one at each meal.

We went to Brookdale Palm Coast. It was more convenient to where my sister, Carol, lives to visit my brother-in-law. It was very clean and well laid out. They had various rooms. We also saw their model apartment. It wasn't quite as big. It had a spacious bathroom with sort of a walk-in shower and all that. They had a bed wall at a place where you can put a dresser and a TV. It was very comfortable and very well-lit. They had individual air conditioning units, which allow you to adjust the temperature. We sat down and talked with the director. She asked good questions. She asked pre-qualifying questions for my brother-in-law and asked what the situation was. We learned a lot. She sort of educated me on rehabilitation options and that they try to bring them back to where they can take care of themselves, as well as skilled nursing facilities. It was when we decided that assisted living was not really an option for my brother-in-law. They have a place for exercising and sing-along. Also, it was in a square pattern. They showed us the screened-in porch.

I toured Brookdale Palm Coast. It was a very good tour. It's very clean, very nice. As you walk up into the building, it's sort of a country home look to it. The staff was very knowledgeable and very nice, and she took us everywhere. She was more sales oriented than personable. Their common areas weren't as nice as the other place I went to, and depending on your apartment, on one side you're facing a parking lot. Their courtyard looked a little outdated and it hadn't been worked on in a little while.

I toured Brookdale Palm Coast for my husband. The lady that interviewed me, Maureen, was very attentive. She explained everything. She showed me the room. The place is really nice, and she introduced me to most of the people that work there. She was really accommodating. It's a small community, roughly 42 clients, but it's really, really, really nice. I would like to go there one day when I get there. The only thing is that they don't have memory care. At one point, you are going to need memory care, not everybody, but some people. So, that's the only downfall that they don't have that there. They gave us a goodie bag with little cookies and stuff.

I went to Brookdale Palm Coast, and the person that I spoke to, Lorraine, was very, very understanding and very helpful. She showed me several apartments and they were very nice and very well laid out, accommodating for wheelchairs or things, which would make it easy for people who couldn't get around. They're very comfortable, even the studio apartment was a very comfortable size. It's an older facility, but they're in the process of doing some renovations. The dining area was small. There weren't that many people there, and they seemed to be encouraging to get people to mingle and to be together, even the director was playing the guitar because the activities director was not there for some reason. He went in and he was playing a guitar and singing while the residents were listening and participating. They had a salon and a nice little courtyard. They had a little covered lanai as well that was very nice with ceiling fans so it wouldn't be too hot. They listened to the needs of my dad. They were very forthright and very helpful. If things hadn't changed, then I probably would have brought him there. I like the smallness of the place.

I toured Brookdale Palm Coast, and I liked the looks of it. It's a smaller facility. Their apartments were in the middle of some rehabbing and upgrading. They were helpful and answered all the questions I had. They showed me pretty much everything I wanted to see. Having a nurse on-site as part of the full time staff made a difference, as far as I was concerned. I was impressed with that. They did a very good job.
