I wanted to take a moment to express how wonderful the Luau was! I found myself smiling as I watched the residents sing, dance, and laugh. Kudos to everyone at Brookdale Lake Brazos for bringing such joy to what can sometimes be a difficult environment. Mom couldn't stop talking about how hard “Misty worked to get everything ready!” I know many people contributed, but it takes a strong leader to bring it all together, and all of you did an amazing job! Thank you for making life easier for the families and for showing how much you truly care. I never imagined how so many residents would touch my heart when Mom came to Brookdale Lake Brazos. I give you all the credit for creating such a special and loving atmosphere.

My Grandpa lived in Brookdale for awhile. They were overpriced, understaffed and neglectful. His room was over $5,000 a month and they didn’t even provide toiletries! 🤦🏻♀️ Multiple times I went to see him, no one had changed his bed. His clothes and diaper were full of urine and feces. I always had to Ask them to do it. When he couldn’t get out of bed, I noticed they gave him water and food but out of his reach. He couldn’t even get a drink because no one helped him and he couldn’t even get some himself 😢 He went downhill so fast. We moved him elsewhere.

Visited a friend last week who was placed here recently. While I did not tour the entire facility, I did get to see quite a bit. The facility is clean and smells clean. Staff was friendly and helpful. My friend' s demeanor seems to be improving since placement here. I observed lunch in the dining room- Fried catfish, slaw, roll, cake which all looked delicious. The facility had a calm and happiness about it that came from the residents and staff ! Hallways and elevator were all in good working condition. The grounds are lovely. From upstairs hallway I could see the residents' raised bed vegetable garden. How fun! My friend 's room was expected and the perfect size and amount of independence.I look forward to future visits.

If you are looking for a memory care program in the Waco area, Brookdale Lake Brazos' Clarebridge Program is top tier. While the facilities may feel a little dated, don't let that fool you. The program for people with cognitive decline is incredible. Claire, the memory care director, is passionate and obviously cares about the dignity and happiness of the residents. This passion is then reflected in all of the staff that come into contact with the residents. I could not be more grateful for the care that my grandmother receives here.
