Review for Brookdale South Charlotte

My grandfather has been at Brookdale for a month so far. The staff are all very nice. His room is perfect size for just what he wanted. Food is actually pretty good. I have ate with him a few times. Everyone is very friendly there and they make you feel like family. I would recommend the community to others.

Grateful

We are very lucky to have my mom at BSC! She is very happy and it's been like family. All of the executive staff know each resident and their families by name. They gently encourage participation in the daily activities which gets residents out of their rooms, creating friendships. I know that when I go out of town, which is frequently, I have the peace of mind that my mom will be safe and cared for.

Give It A Try

Brookdale South Charlotte a very beautiful facility and the admin staff is very nice. Memory care unit is tucked away like a cottage where the residents are kept comfortable. The food is bland. Not good at all. Needs to be more flavorful. Invest in a better cook. I rated activities low bc my family member doesn't really participate. Most of the memory care people just sit and watch tv. Would be nice to bring in some live music or musical activities for them.

5 on all the categories that are listed. What has made Brookdale South Charlotte such a great experience so far is the people that are there, they are excellent. We would absolutely recommend this community to other families who may be looking for a place for their loved ones.

Exceptional staff and care

Overall experience is rated at a 4 mainly because of stomach flu and quarantine which was out of the facility's control perhaps-so could be a 5. With the meals and dining service - clickish but that is to be expected with just a respite stay. Activities could be more varied and age appropriate. Some games were difficult . Most expensive of the ones we had seen- but the sales manager , Ashley ( even though not her job) was always available by phone and on a moments notice was there to help- with anything- for example when wifi was out- helped with tv and kindle.

Exceptional staff

From the Sales team and Administrative Staff to the nurses and aids in my mom's memory care unit, everyone was so nice and always had a smile when they saw us on visits. The team was in contact with us if there were any issues. I fully trusted them as my mom's care givers so I could go back to just being her son. I'd chose them again in a heart beat.

My tour experience with each Brookdale facility was wonderful. The staff were professional, focused and great educators. There was no dumb questions that I could have asked. They made me feel comfortable from the get go. This Brookdale facility was larger and offered different levels of care and had access to many more amenities than the smaller facility. I would not hesitate to recommend any of the Brookdale facilities.

Brookdale South Charlotte looked like a very nice facility. We were not able to see some of the facility due to covid like the rooms, but we were able to see the common areas. We really liked all of the staff that we met with and they were great with their follow up afterwards. It would have been a great fit for our loved one. It just came down to the location for friends and family and another facility was just a bit closer for us.

Meh. There is better out there

A loved one has lived here. Below are my opinion of strengths and weaknesses. Overall the day-to-day experience was hit and miss, and a relatively poor value for the price. I cannot recommend. Strengths: a) Food quality and variety is good b) The transportation to medical appointments was reliable c) Leadership responds to communications quickly Weaknesses: a) Facility condition-simple maintenance items are not addressed (burned out lightbulbs, dirty air intake registers, dirty carpet). There is a hole in the wall and water damage by an elevator. Additionally, they need to replace carpet, paint, and fixtures. b) Staff responsiveness and continuity - Staff change very frequently, and they rely on outside staffing yielding A LOT of inconsistency in delivery, and no continuity of relationship between staff and residents. Staff can be slow to respond when called. c) Lack of quality control - management does not have a way to monitor or control the delivery of services

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 North Carolina’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 North Carolina’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.
