I visited many assisted living facilities for my mother who was suffering from Alzheimers. But when I found Brookdale at Echelon Lakes, I knew I had struck gold. The facility is beautiful, the staff (to a person) so friendly, caring, helpful, and welcoming, but most importantly, they offered me the hope no other facility did. My mother was set against going into one of those places. Every facility I visited expressed concern that they would not be able to take her if she was not willing. I knew my mothers unwillingness was based on irrational fears and I only had to get her there to show her it was the best place for her-- no longer alone, things to do, caring staff looking out for her. Brookdale staff told me just get her here and we will take it from there. And they delivered. I got my mother transferred there after a second in a week fall at home and a brief hospitalization. They prepared for her a meal of her favorite food and welcomed her with open arms. Photos they took of her on her first few hours showed a smile on her face we had never, in a very long time seen! We visited an Elder Care attorney at the same time to be sure we had all bases covered and the lawyer spoke highly of Brookdale, mentioning their very robust memory care program. The staff was able to get my mother dressed in street clothes for the first time in a year (she insisted on bed clothes at home), got her participating in activities, and socializing. I wish I had gotten her to Brookdale sooner.

On behalf of our family, I would like to thank the staff at Brookdale Echelon Lake for keeping the coronavirus out of your facility. I hope this trend continues! And I would like to thank you for taking care of Mr. and Mrs. Nichter, without your help their lives would be so much different. Alex and the staff keep up the good work!!!!!!

A dear family friend is at this community, and we as a family are beyond happy with all the staff has done for her! Our friend has no children, a widow and no family nearby, but the staff at Brookdale Echelon Lake ARE her family (as she often says)! She came to the building a bit apprehensive about assisted living at first, and now we have a hard time getting her to leave to join us for outings! Affordable, clean, smiling employees, and personal CARE. From the entire Management team, to the housekeeping staff, professionalism and genuine care-concern. If your loved one is showing signs of unhappiness, or needs a little extra care for their day-to day life, please consider this community...thank us later! Tell them Simone sent ya:)

At the heart of Brookdale, Echelon Lake is the experienced and caring team of professionals that has made my Mom’s experience there a true success story. The transition to assisted living from a private home was a challenging transition for everyone in our family. The culture of person-centered care ensured that Mom’s needs were understood and supported, both physically and emotionally. Quality resident activities such as bingo, musical performances and prayer group have now become favorite aspects of my Mom’s week. She has formed true friendships with many of the kind staff and other residents which has enhanced her quality of life greatly. From the little to large details of care, my family and I are impressed with the attention and focus they provide our Matriarch. Since she can’t be home, thank God there’s Brookdale! E. Wilkins, Resident’s daughter

My aunt was a resident at this place. I was surprised when I first came to visit her, it is an older building so I didn't expect it to kept up so well. This was about 1 year ago. Everyone was so friendly, it smelled like berries when we 1st walked in, my aunt and the others seem to get along with the staff and they looked well taken care of. It has the most beautiful view of the lake. I wish I could live there.

Brookdale Echelon Lake is a wonderful place. My family did not want to place my mom into a senior facility, but Brookdale is better than that. Moving my mom into her own apartment was well organized by the staff. My mom settled in quicker than we thought. Everyone staff members from the top to bottom was welcoming, helpful and understood what we were going through. They helped us make the transition smooth and easy. THANK YOU TO ALL OF THEM

I have no complaints about the tour I had taken at this community for my loved one. The staff where on time to our appointment and made sure to provide us with lots of great information as well as answer any questions we had for them. I liked the layout out of the over facility and thought it was easy to navigate throughout the building. Overall the staff did a great job and this place was great it was just not the right fit for my dad in the end decision.

Brookdale Echelon Lake is an older but clean establishment. It does need some upkeep. I absolutely give a five-star rating on the staff. They are very friendly and do a good job caring for my Mom. I couldn't ask for a nicer staff. My only complaint is the food. The meals could use a lot of help. There is not enough variety. Last night my Mom did not eat any of the food provided, so I brought her food that she would eat. They offer plenty of activities, my Mom prefers not to participate. She does enjoy people watching. They provide outdoor seating for residents to enjoy the outdoors. They also offer transportation for shopping trips for the residents. Mom is very content at Brookdale Echelon Lake. We feel good that she is in a safe environment.
