Daughter

My mother is a recent resident so our experience is quite limited. So far the staff has been attentive to our concerns.

I chose The Palms of Fort Myers for my parents. It's excellent. They're very caring people, there's excellent communication, and the facilities are very good. I love their exercise room, hot tub, and porch. From their apartment, they have access to a private porch. It overall seems to be a wonderful facility with very caring people that work there.

I visited Brookdale in Bonita Springs. I very much liked the woman I met with, I think she was very patient, she was flexible, and answered all my questions. It's hard for me to accurately assess the facility because, as I visited, they were undergoing renovation. It would probably negatively askew my impression of what things really look like because they're all ripped off and they were in the process. I really wanted to like it better. I didn't like the room that I saw, I thought it was kind of dingy. I don't know if they're also updating it, but I looked at it and my thought was, "I don't want my mom spending the last days of her life in that room."

My dad has been in Brookdale Bonita Springs for a little over two weeks now. He's not really happy at all because he loves to be independent and always thinks about leaving, but I don't think that it's a reflection on the facility. It's a nice place. It's clean, the people were nice, they helped him adjust, and I have no issues with it. He has a two-bedroom apartment where there is a living room, a kitchenette, a bathroom, and a closet. They have a courtyard, too. Everything is laid out well. I know they play bingo, watch movies, and play video games. They would gather some of the residents, and they will put it on a big screen and do those things. They have been doing a lot of renovating in there, and most of it seems to be done, but there is still work that needs to be done.

I was impressed with Brookdale College Parkway. I just did not like that you don't have a washer and dryer. The staff seemed very nice. The apartments were fine, and the one I found was lovely. They took me outside and showed me the pool, television rooms, pool table area, and the dining room that was not open.
