Brookdale Tempe

It was stressful making the decision regarding when and where would be the best place for memory care for my husband of 57 years. Brookdale has proven to be a place my husband is living his best life. Each visit I can know he is cared for. I am thankful we made this choice.

I had a great experience touring this facility. All the residents were allowed to hangout in the lobby. There was a family moving their mother out back to a new state to be closer to their family but they gave me their honest opinion about the facility. They said that they truly loved this facility and were very sad to go. - Karla and Andi were very helpful on the tour. Very great people to talk to and be around.

Before placing my dad in memory care he wasn't eating regularly or taking his meds; a couple of times neighbors heard the smoke alarm going off only to find that dad had put something on the stove and forgot about it, he was in a very unsafe state of mind. From my first visit there it felt peaceful and comfortable. Brookdale was a wonderful place for our dad. Dad loved the staff there, and he could feel their love and care from them. They were always kind and listened to him. the staff were great at keeping me informed if he needed things and if there needed to be a change made to his plan of care. Family activities were encouraged, and the facility would host family dinners where I would get a chance to meet other residents and their families. The families were a great resource and support for me.

My Mom needed memory care after a series of hospitalizations and we were blessed to find Brookdale Tempe! She loved it there, she adored the staff, and the care she got was stellar. It’s a beautiful facility and she liked the food. We witnessed their kindness to my Mom many times. When we decided we could not put her through another hospitalization, they helped us arrange Hospice care. As the end of her life approached, we were touched by the staff that came in to see her, hold her hand, and spend time with her! My sisters and I can’t say enough good things about our experiences there!

My Mom was a Brookdale Tempe resident for the last year of her life and I was so thankful I moved her there. I wish I had done it much sooner. The staff was so caring and friendly and treated my Mom like she was Family instead of just another faceless, nameless, resident. I can say that Adrianna, The Manager, Lorie, the Health & Wellness Director, and the entire staff did everything possible to help my Mom with her severe Dementia problems. They did things like using their own money to purchase things they thought my Mom might eat when she was not choosing to eat the usual great dining room food. One of the staff used to come in on his day off sometimes to make sure my Mom would eat that day because he had a close rapport with Mom and could convince her to eat much easier than other staff. The Brookdale staff not only treated Mom like family, they were always there for support and advice for me when I needed it. I could go on for many more examples of the professionalism and outstanding care provided at Brookdale of Tempe but I would suggest a personal visit to the facility to meet and talk with the staff. The Brookdale staff is so good at providing quality care and are doing a job they love. My Mom has been gone for about 3 years now, but I still stop by to see the wonderful people that were so good to her.
