5 on all of them! The workers are great, the Cleanliness is awesome, care is great. Yes, they do have plenty of activities for the residents to participate in. My aunt enjoys the music when someone comes, the church service and bingo. She doesn't do the crafts.

Review for Brookdale Lakeshore

Staff is great. During the day. Nighttime? They better stay in their room. The "nurse" and aide, put my mother back in bed after she broke her hip. Her leg was bent behind her. They didn't call 911. Pitiful nighttime staffing.

A great place!

We chose Brookdale Lakeshore because the Facility was always clean and tidy. [name removed], the maintenance man, always responded quickly and cheerfully if we needed anything. The staff is professional, caring and compassionate, and they seem to love their jobs. They were always willing to go above and beyond!! We will miss them tremendously!!

Great Assisted Living in Waco, TX area

Mother has been a resident here for eleven years. The staff is doing a good job. The director and activities coordinator go above and beyond to help residents stay active and involved. The nurse addresses the healthcare needs. Maintenance is very helpful.

Brookdale Lakeshore is a top notch facility thats incredibly clean and organized. Care team is compassionate, experience and dedicated to the well being of our parents. They got to the extra mile to make sure everyone feels loved and respected. The move to an assisted living community was one of the hardest decisions we've ever had to make and feel confident we chose the best place for them to be.

I really like the facility in Waco. They are nothing but nice and good to us. Highly recommend. We picked this community, because it was a smaller size and felt more comfortable and personable. It's very nice and great place for my parents.
