Unclean and no communication
When we first arrived, the room was filthy. We had to actually clean it before we could move my mother in. She never got showers the first couple weeks she was there then I found out the lady that did my billing and paperwork. It was all done wrong and they wanted to charge me couple thousand more, she was never put on a care plan even though we were paying for it, there was only one nurse name [name removed] that actually did communication with us.and help she was great
Other than that you couldn’t understand or communicate with the staff they still owe me money because my mother had to be taken out of there because of an issue with another resident . And my mom was always soaked in urine

Nice facility.
What we like the most about the Brookdale Bradenton Gardens is how homey it feels and the staff members that are working there are great. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend this community to other families.

overall a nice community
My Mom was only there for a few months. The staff was very friendly and attentive, and that is the reason we chose this facility. They take care of their clients and are engaging. I'm having difficulty with settling my Dad's account, but I'm hoping that will be rectified shortly.

Tour experience
The tour experience with Brookdale Bradenton Gardens was great! Everyone I met with was fantastic. They were friendly, informative and completely understood everything that I was going through. They were all so kind. For us, it just came down to the value for the money that we found better fit our needs at another facility.

Double Check What They Tell YOU!!
They need help with the cleanliness. It's not worth the money. They could make sure that the food comes out hot, and the variety that they present when you first come in, does not exist. The food is always cold. They need more fresh veggies, and more balanced options. They can be more interactive, after moving in. My loved one needed extra care, and it was challenging getting additional care that was needed.

Taking care of My Uncle
They treat my loved one, with kindness and respect. Much more kindness than his previous home. They let him take endless library books even if he cannot read...I bring them back to the library. The people that work there....they are caring people. I wish we would of found this place first.

A Place for Family
It's a wonderful place. It's cheerful, sunny, and clean. The residents all seem to be happy, clean, and in good care. The food manager seems to be very nice, gets to know the clientele, and works to accommodate their wants and needs. And the dining room is cheerful as well.

Few issues had while my husband was there were:
They had a problem with the plumbing where the toilets were backing up into the shower.
The carpets were also quite soiled.
The staff were very nice and helpful at all times.

Having Second Thoughts
I was thinking my loved one was going into assisted living and within 24 hours they were moved to memory care. There were residents that recognized my loved one wandering around the outside of the community. The community moved and we didn't have time to compare pricing at other communities. The memory care needs some renovations done to it.
I don't feel my loved one's room is kept as clean as it should be. The common areas doesn't look good because it is so mismatched and doesn't appears run done because of this.
It would be nice to see improvements in grooming of the residents. I'm noticing that residents are needing to be shaved or nails need to be cut.
The staff is friendly, but I think the community maybe short on staff.

I would recommend it to somebody
We are satisfied and really have no complaints to say. They are just now allowing visitation but so far everything we have seen is very clean. The staff members there are very friendly and really are doing their best when it comes to the care. So far we do think the value is reasonable and fair.

Our experience
We liked this one after our virtual tour - it looked pretty good. The only downside was that for the money, our loved one would have had to share a bedroom here, and we ended up finding a place where she could have a shared apartment with her own bedroom.
