I would definitely recommend the facility. I was always impressed with how friendly and personable the staff was. I feel like they truly care about the residents. I would have liked to see a little better housekeeping in my mom's room. The best part was the number of activities and the activities director. She was fantastic!! The move in process was great and they made it easy. They also encouraged me to always ask questions and they did a great job of calling me if they had concerns or issues with my mom. After we first moved her in, the nurse called me each day for about two or three days to alleviate any concerns I may have about mom settling in.

The care my mom has received from staff at Brookdale has helped to ease our family's burden of placing our mother in a facility. The staff (nursing, activities, administrative, and custodian/maintenance) are caring and patient. The house physician and nursing staff have done a great job modifying medications to decrease my mom's suffering and improve her behavior. The nursing and activities staff are excellent and spend time talking to and engaging the residents in activities they enjoy. I highly recommend Brookdale.

They have gone far and beyond. [name removed] has been incredible. My dad passed away from cancer and he was very protective over my mom and sometimes he would get agitated, but [name removed] handled it with such grace and made the transition so good, it was so easy. They are very good about educating families about the process and what is going on and encouraging families to participate and stay engage. Everything is set up specifically for those with memory care problems. They are patient and willing to answer any question at anytime They really try to get her to engage in the activities and try to include her as much as they can. They have been amazing with communication and let you know what to expect. They also let you personalize their rooms so it does not feel sterile. When you walk into the facility, you truly feel like you are at home. I would absolutely recommend them without a doubt. I have that peace of mind since moving her here and I know I do not have to worry about her.

Quality Care
We had a good experience with Brookdale Topeka and the staff was good to work with. Communication between the community and myself was good. I was there in person a lot, but they also reached out through email and text. The community is all on one floor and it's both safe & locked. Activities include a variety of different things like cards, movies, crafts, baking, and a little bit of everything. I would recommend Brookdale Topeka to others.

I would recommend you consider the needs of your loved one before placement. I have learned a lot of things during my loved one being here. I would recommend you ask questions and explore all the information you can before you place your loved one here. The community will allow for the staff to assist the residents with eating meals, as long as you pay for this care. It would be helpful for the staff to do a better job in catering to this need of my loved one then they currently do. The staff have tried to encourage my loved one into activities in the community. I think the staff is stretched thin. The aides are the least paid; however, they work very hard.

My review of Brookdale
We did a virtual tour with Brookdale. The facility seemed very nice and had a big courtyard in the middle. We did not choose this facility because of the cost, it was too expensive when you went up in levels of care.

Great personalized care - you can feel safe having them take care of your loved one
They take great care of the residents. Be aware though that it is for people with Alzheimer's or dementia. It's hard to say if there's any special things they're doing for memory care, since I wasn't able to go inside due to COVID. I think the staff did an excellent job communicating with me about my loved one's care. But I'm also a proactive person. So between me contacting them and them contacting me, I always had valid, up-to-date information. Everything looked clean from what I could see - again, I couldn't go inside due to COVID. Activities were also affected by COVID. They used to take them out to eat and things like that. But they had to limit activities to inside the facility, and there's only so much you can do with that.

My review of Brookdale Topeka
We were not able to go inside the facility but we were able to peak through the windows and the community looked clean. The gal who toured with our family was great, she was really informative and she sat outside to talk to us and answer questions. Even though our loved one did not move in, she still continues to reach out to us and check on our family.

Everyone is so welcoming and helpful. The virtual visit process and porch visit were a great alternative to the normal visit in person that is not available due to Covid. I appreciated all the time spent with my family in helping us to eventually make a decision on when to place my mom.

Great Experience
I was made aware of Brookdale in Topeka thru A Place for Mom. They provided me with 3 possible memory care facilities in Topeka. I chose Brookdale since their entire facility is nothing but Memory Care. My husband is 81 and we have been together for 30 years. The transition was very painful and he has had some issues adjusting, not because of the facility but because of his anger issues. Brookdale has been amazing, they worked with us and now because of their patience and guidance my husbands medication is on track and he has settled in wonderfully. I truly can not say enough great things about Brookdale and their staff. Mind you I am fully aware that no place is perfect, but for us this is as close to perfect as we could have hoped for. Thanks Brookdale and thanks A Place for Mom for sharing the information regarding this facility with me.

Brookdale Topeka offers Studio. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Brookdale Topeka 9.1 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.
