Wonderful Facility, would highly recommend.
My mom is happy at Brookdale. Let others know that your parents say they don't want to go they want to stay in their house but once they are there and make friends they love it. Also as my mom said she has no worries about a house. Everyone was sincerely happy and very nice. I did talk to some of the residents when we were on our first visit and a lot of people have been at this location a long time and that says something about the place. Like how the money for the meals is set up, none of this different price for different meal plans like some places do. Your way is so much easier for the older people and you get more people eating together which is important. I can keep going on, Brookdale First Colony is wonderful . When my mom said Thank you to me for my husband and I finding this place I told her it was not us but A Place for Mom that found this place. So a BIG THANK YOU to A Place For Mom!!

our families experience
Overall, great place to have ones parents or elderly while they still can live in an "independent" living communities. They take care of the guests and make sure that they are monitored for peace of mind. The place has open areas for sitting which are great. Really beautiful accommodations. Very central to anything people would use/ want for food and shopping. Only comment is on the food, which at times was very salty - probably using salt for adding taste. However, the food seemed healthy and was generally high quality/ tasty.

Review for Brookdale First Colony
My loved one feels as if, they serve the same type of food, and there is not much of a variety, and would like more options that represents the culture of the people that live there. It's good value for the money. It would be great if they had a rollover program, for the monthly food plan. Overall, I would recommend to others.

Brookdale First Colony offers 1 Bedroom and 2 Bedrooms. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Brookdale First Colony 9.7 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.
