Brookdale Oceanside

Mom has only been a resident for about a month. Since I don't spend all day at her residence, but what I have noticed is, not enough staff. On any given day, there may be two or three staff members. I am guessing there are at least 25 to 30 residents in mom's area. I am not sure she is receiving enough assistance when needed. She had a urine stained bed, that had not been changed for over a week. When I asked, the staff member said the sheets should be changed at least weekly. She immediately changed her soiled sheets. Currently, I would rate them a three. I understand the job is not rewarding and is emotional and difficult and I appreciate all that work in that field. I am grateful mom is in a safe place.

Marketing person provided helpful information and clear disclosure about pricing. Not a great listener and we found her a bit overbearing with advice. Facility is clean and pleasant though a bit shabby with some slippage on maintenance.

They have friendly staff, food decent and lots of choices, comfortable. Reasonable room rates. I would absolutely recommend them to others who are searching for a place for their loved one. He is very happy there and we never thought he would settle in.

Things to know...

It has been challenging to work with them. I would tell others to ask lots of questions and get things in writing. Check your billing statements carefully.

I would recommend it, as long as you understand that the facility is pretty old. It is also one of the best values in North county. I would give an overall of a three, because the facility is old and not in the greatest shape. Shape. But the staff was fantastic.

Review for Brookdale Oceanside

The daytime caregivers are very caring and attentive. We had some concerns about evenings and nights after my mom experienced a few falls while trying to transfer from her wheelchair to bed. The team worked with us and hospice to address the issue, and the solution they put in place seems to be working well. I'm happy to see the improvement and feel reassured moving forward.

Experience

Staff has Always been friendly,courteous and respectful and helpful. The facility is very clean and the mood is uplifting and cheerful. They are willing to help and make my brother comfortable. Since he has been a resident he smiles more often. Everybody greets me anytime I visit. They have scheduled a lot of activities and events to keep him active.

Review for Brookdale Oceanside

Constant staff turnover, personal care fees increase rapidly. Business office is not transparent with billing and charges and difficult to get information when requested. The director told me she doesn't respond to emails only phone messages! The caregivers are kind but not well trained especially when discussing a resident's day. The food seems ok and nutritious. There doesn't seem to be enough stimulation for the residents, they sit at the table asleep or in front of the tv falling asleep and hunched over.

What we like the most about Brookdale Oceanside is everyone there, staff and administration, is very friendly and attentive to Mom's needs. Yes, we would recommend the community to other families especially for patients with dementia.

Brookdale Oceanside review

Having had my mom at 3 different facilities the main problem is the promises to get you to sign up and then you must constantly be following up if you want to hold the facility accountable for communication and follow through. It's a constant process.

Peace of Mind

I moved my mother to Brookdale from another facility because she needed more care. All the caregivers and staff at Brookdale are kind and very attentive to my mother. She is happy there and that gives me peace of mind. There is very little staff turnover and I believe that means that the staff is happy to come to work each day. To me that makes a big difference in the kind of care my mother receives. I would recommend Brookdale to anyone who asked!

Wonderful experience with this community. Most of the staff are friendly. Food is above par. Apartments are ok and spacious. Transportation services is lacking a bit but not a deal breaker. You can have small pets.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know California’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about California’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
