CriticalStaff is lovely and accommodating
It's been great. My aunt is not wanting to participate or go to DR for any meals but I have no real complaints. If she would cooperate they would get her out of bed for meals. Staff is all lovely. Thank you

PositiveFamily experience
When it comes to the value for cost we have nothing to compare against. However, what we do like the most about Brookdale Hockessin is that it is small only 54 rooms, easy to get around and staff is very friendly. Could work on cleaning and improving food quality. Yes, we would recommend this community to other families.

PositiveGood care staff but senior staff in transition
Signed a contract only to find out days later that the medical director, the head administrator and head of sales all moved on to other jobs and the interim personnel was scrambling to straighten out the issues at the facility.

CriticalDissatisfied Family
My loved one was a resident at Brookdale Hockessin and overall our experience was fair or less than. The cleanliness was great. The friendliness was poor. The quality of care and the staff were terrible. There is a desperate need for more staffing at this facility. There is also a great need for better communication with the families. I would not recommend this facility to family and friends.
