Professional Nursing Home Care
I am pretty dissapointed. My friend is happy with the food and activities, but I am not too happy with the service. The bed is not always changed, and my friend is not getting regular showers. For the amount of money being paid, we are not getting the amount of care that is needed. It seems like, no one is doing any personal care for the residents.

A friendly small knit community
The meals and dinning are really good. They do not have a whole lot of activities due to it being a smaller community. But they do have some activities for the residents. It is a small community and they are very caring and everyone knows each other. I really like the fact that they have individual areas and suites including a kitchen area and more for the residents.

The staff members and care services they provided are excellent. What really stood out to us was the smallness of the community. It has a very homey feeling to it, very compacted. It does not feel like a large institutional community.

I would and have recommended them, just get the detail clear
We chose Brookdale Tavares because we needed to make a quick decision and they had availability at the time when we needed it, it is also a smaller facility which is what she liked. All in all the people are friendly and the cleanliness and the size of the rooms are what really pushed me here. I think they could use improvement on communication, she is in FL and I am in NC, so I wish they would communicate with me a little bit better about changes on medications. She has Alzheimer's so it is hard to get information from her. But overall I would recommend to others looking.

The facility was nice, but it was not the right place for my Mom. There was a base price for each apartment, and then they added fees for care. After adding everything that my Mom would need, it was a good bit more expensive than other facilities in the area.

Safe, caring, & affordable for assisted living.
The staff are great and friendly. The problem is accessing the building. One has to ring the buzzer & then wait for the (understaffed) staff to answer, then come to the door and put the code in before you can enter. This sometimes takes 5-10 minutes depending on if they’re busy or even hear it. It’s not fair to the staff to disrupt their duties to do this. I’m there every day and it’s getting old! I’m told the door code cannot be given out to other than staff. This makes no sense to me because the purpose is security for the confused/senile dementia clients in, not to keep visitors out. The other thing is the meals are not very accommodating to medical problems like diabetes or heart problems. The staff does what they can but a little health appropriate meal planning seems to be needed. Otherwise affordable, safe & caring staff facility. Would like to see more staff available.

It has been a while since I had taken a tour of this place but I have no complaints of how things had went. I thought the staff did a nice job with the presentation and where very knowledgeable about everything they had to offer. It was just not the right location or right time when we had looked at this place.

A good tour
This is a nice looking community. It is one floor and it looks like a large square. This community is more for residents with Dementia. They do have smaller rooms on each side of the hallways. Everything is inside the community. They have a large dining room. The residents were participating in an activity when I visited. This community is laid out well and has a large foyer.

Frequently Asked Questions
about Brookdale Tavares

Brookdale Tavares offers Studio and 1 Bedroom. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Brookdale Tavares 8.8 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
