Review for Brookdale Tyler East

Brookdale is lovely. My Mom has been there a year now and has made friends and everyone takes good care of her. [name removed] is really good with the residents. He spends time with them and really gets to know them. It is small enough so that Mom doesn't feel overwhelmed. [name removed] the activities director works hard to decorate for all occasions and she often has family dinners. I am still very happy with our choice

Our family's experiences

Better initially but went down after that. Get everything in writing and keep tabs on financial matters. Don't just put your love one in there and always make unannounced visits. Sit and observe at different times of the day.
