We enjoyed touring the facility. The residents were friendly and appeared to be enjoying themselves. [name removed] knew the names of all the residents she saw while taking us around. We liked the interaction between residents and staff. We were expressed with the calendar of activities that were offered. We hope to go back and have lunch in the near future.

Have been very satisfied. Food service staff and general staff is very friendly. There is a full schedule of activities every day. An indoor year round pool makes comfortable exercise. Food is varied and good 3 meals a day 7 days a week. Studio apt is about 540 sq-ft. A number of public activity rooms allow for multiple events without one intruding another.

My brother just moved into Brookdale yesterday [date removed]. I am his sister I fell in love with Brookdale when I first saw it. My brother was also impressed with Brookdale. He told me he had the pot roast mashed potatoes plus a sundae . He said it was very good. The place is very clean the staff is very friendly and very helpful.

Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Of several sites visited, Brookdale had the warmest home away from home feel.

The staff, food, atmosphere are all 1st class. There is NO reason not recommend Brookdale North. I don't know anything about the other Brookedale's.

I thought the facility was top notch. You could tell the staff genuinely cared about the residents and wanted to support them as much as possible in being independent, which I appreciated. The studios and the one bedrooms were both larger than I expected and the value of the amenities for the cost was very good. We really liked the place. The only major two drawbacks for us, which is why it won't work for us at this time is that transportation is not provided to the Durham VA or the Garner VA (my dad is a vet and his medical care is all through the VA system) and there wasn't an option to use the transportation to be dropped off to other places (other than already scheduled spots). There is also an extra cost for medical concierge services which is okay but it impacts the overall cost too. The place was really well kept up though and in a great location, wonderful activities, great inclusion of family for things.

Food does not address restricted diets. And extreme salt. Apartment is acceptable. Apparently you have never heard of using thermostats, as the hall is freezing because the controls are all set to the lowest. I have considered leaving because of the dietary and poor maintenance, etc.

I give it a wonderful Five I also give that a five it is an open space waiting for happiness There is a lot of activity going on both inside and in the back small courtyard for those who enjoy smoking or listening to music sharing a craft or just general chatting in the rocking chairs that are in the back everyone has a smile for you and will greet you by name if they remember otherwise wear the tag and they'll greet you by name. They are Johnny on the spot They stay with you while the ambulance is there while you are in the hospital they call and cheer you on when you return home They have a staff that is on top of all of the activities and is there to answer any question you may have even the personal ones they take an active interest and will help you through it to make you feel part of a community that cares yes I know only one to five but their food is made by world chefs, and 95% of the time the food is hot. It is brought to your table of four people. There are many tables for you to enjoy your dining pleasure with friends and family when you return from a hospital stay they will serve your meals in your room for a short period of time at no extra charge to you. The activities there are diversified many games going on all day in addition to structured exercise program as well as exercise equipment for on your own doing there's a pool that's available at certain times, but you must have a buddy in order to use the pool at non-pool times there's a hairdresser and a nail tech Arts and crafts as well as a store little tiny convenience store. I'll get together on Friday afternoon movies and outside entertainment in the evening they come in. I was sad when I had to give up my apartment at Brookdale independent living, senior solutions and come to Overture @ Crabtree only because I have made friends. I had just gotten that apartment to look like a home welcoming charming so if you're looking for value as well as a home atmosphere with not so much on your own activity Then fail is the way to go

It is like living in a hotel! I cannot imagine another senior facility being more accommodating than Brookdale! I loved living there!

I am still trying to decide whether I like this facility or not. Obviously, I would rather not be in any type of facility like this. I feel Brookdale is a good facility but falls short in some aspects. On a positive note the staff here is usually friendly and helpful.

What we like the most about Brookdale North Raleigh are the friendships our loved one is making, not eating alone, and the activities. Also having OT and PT on-site when she needs it. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend this community to other families

Brookdale is supposed to be an independent living center, I am totally independent but it now has become an assisted living place. Only about 3% are independent residents. The activities get a 5+. If you are in need of an assisted living place, yes I would recommend it to other families.

The staff at Brookdale North Raleigh are a happy staff, always enjoying their job. The staff makes every effort to learn your first name make you feel as comfortable and as a member of the family as they can to help them along. [Name removed], the man who owns Brookdale, started out in the kitchen many years ago. All of the staff from the cleaning to program to the front desk and the driver for the bus are so friendly. The residents included, they make sure that you enjoy being you and are feeling welcome here in the community.

Brookdale has been a wonderful experience for my mom. The staff is kind and friendly and the residents have been so welcoming. There are many activities to do each day, there is really something for everyone. There are many regularly scheduled social events throughout the week as well as lots of special events/entertainment. The food is quite good and the portions are perfect. I could go on and on but the best thing to do is see for yourself. Most of the residents, my mom included, will tell you their only regret is not moving to Brookdale sooner. I have total peace of mind about mom living in the Brookdale community.

The lead staff is very knowledgeable and caring. They have been very helpful to my mom and have reached out to me to ensure she everything she needs. Apartments are a decent size and easy to locate for the residents. Full kitchen if desired.
