Brookdale answers a lot of the questions we have for mom.
From the warmth, kindness and experience exhibited by [name removed] at Brookdale to the interest given to not only my moms physical needs but also her emotional needs by [names removed] and the entire staff, we are becoming more comfortable with mom’s situation. Nothing is easy about Alzheimer’s or dementia but with a little compassion and assistance from others we are making it work. I can’t thank Brookdale in Topeka enough.

Its a nice safe place for my mom...
We were impressed right away with Brookdale on our first visit & tour. It is a beautiful facility inside & out. The staff is very friendly and good with the residents. They do a lot of fun activities with the residents and sometimes involve their families as well. I think this is so important and rewarding for everyone involved. The activity directors are excellent, as well as the other staff members. It really is a little community of people who share so much in common and have made Brookdale their new home. The last few months have definitely been an adjustment for our family since dad passed away. But, we are so thankful that we found a place for our mom where she is safe, comfortable, and has capable people to help her with her daily activities and needs.

Definitely recommended
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.

Above and beyond
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.

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.
