Dimensions Living Appleton

Dimensions Living Appleton seems like a good place. Her room is larger than other ones we looked at. My mother is not complaining about the food which is difficult to believe . So far so good. Based off of our experience here so far, I would recommend Dimensions Living to others.

If you need any level of care above the simple things then it is not the place to go, it is hard to get consistent care needed for my loved one. The level of care they said would be provided was not the level of care that is received.

All the staff are very helpful. Care services kind of depends on who is working. The staff communication with the family has been very good.

Mom really appreciates the CNA's. They are helpful, compassionate and friendly. Love the staff. [name removed] the sales manager is great!

What we really like about Dimensions Living Appleton is the staff, they are very friendly and attentive

It's a good place If family member is getting dementia. The head nurse is phenomenal, and the director is not. The doctor that comes in to visit is phenomenal. They are both the reason that I stayed.

This is our first experience but so far we appreciate their willingness to work with us and make the improvements that are needed. The staff are very friendly and they have a good team working on activities so they are trying their best to provide the residents with opportunities to get involved.

It's really handy to be independent here. They have the facility set up where you can just be in your own room but then leave essentially for meals and little outings. But then also, it's good to have that transition available if things do decline over time. And it definitely doesn't feel like a nursing home. It feels like a normal apartment building. I see quite a few other residents that are quite able bodied. One of the residents is really lovely - she made my loved one a wreath as soon as he moved in. The other residents are nice as well, and will say hi as you pass by. The staff have been very friendly. I know they're struggling with staffing right now, which I don't blame them for, but it would be nice to have more help for my loved one. We've run into some communication issues, probably also due to staffing. But we're also worry warts. We'll call ahead of time if we know he has an appointment or something coming up, and make sure everything is in place. He loves the food, but he isn't happy with the portion sizes. But if he could he could snack all the time all day, he would. From the meals I've seen, they give fruit, salad, potatoes, a little bit of everything that includes the whole food pyramid, which is nice. I really enjoy seeing him getting out a lot, doing bingo and stretches, and that's so important to me. They offer plenty of other activities too, including a guy's coffee group, and a prayer/rosary/religious group, which is nice.

The community is safe and secure and has a patio for the to spend time outdoors. The community keeps us well informed and has good communication. They sometimes aren't able to answer the phone but are quick to return calls. I would recommend this community to others

It is a nice place from what I have seen from the outside. I've been able to have virtual visits with my loved one. The staff have been wonderful.

We chose Brookdale Appleton because my dads high school sweetheart lived here, so he wanted to move there. The room sizes were adequate for their needs. The best part about the community was that my dad felt safe while he was here. Overall, I would highly recommend this facility.

I think it's fine. I think communication with the residents and familes could be better. They could do more to encourage the residents to do different things as well.

Brookdale Appleton was very welcoming of my uncle, both staff and the community. My uncle many times remarked on how everyone knew everyone. Brookdale is well kept, friendly, community oriented, and supportive.

We really liked this one. Very personable. Concerned for the ala cart prices. Very homey atmosphere. Room was a bit on the small side.

I have multiple sclerosis. It has progressed over the years. So, I've lived in 4 different facilities. Some are too expensive. Some are understaffed Some are too big. Some are poorly organized and badly run. Some have good chefs in kitchen. Some order only processed food. Some have young caregivers with dangerously limited experience. Some have highly skilled professionals. BROOKDALE of Appleton Senior Living is all of the best. Fun activities, residents council involved, hair care, bus trips, delicious nutritious food, organized management, skilled staff. I love it here!

I went on a tour here and the staff was nice and helpful. They answered all of my questions. The rooms were on the small side. We didn't meet the criteria they wanted 24 months of assets. I recommend people tour many places before choosing a place.

This facility has been perfect so far and we have no complaints. My Husband’s room is beautiful and it seems more like an apartment than anything. The rooms do come with a full kitchen including a full size refrigerator and a dishwasher. All of the staff members have been wonderful and the residents themselves are very kind. The food is also great and you have a few choices for the meals. When you are served, it’s a 3 course meal and all of the staff members help serve food. The facility does offer a lot of great activities like bingo, happy hour, live entertainment, mass services, family dinner, and a lot of outings. This community is a really great fit for my Husband and I would recommend them to other families.
