Brookdale Broken Arrow

After being part of the Brookdale family for one year, I highly recommend the assisted living facility. In April of 2024, an emergency room visit and rehab stay helped us determine it was no longer safe for my mom, who has dementia, to live alone. The rapid move to assisted living was not my mom’s choice, and the first six months were very difficult for us. The entire staff persevered in loving my mom, and now she realizes the necessity of the help she receives. In fact, she’s overwhelmed by the love and support she receives from the staff. While there have been a few staff changes, many on staff are the same as when my mom moved in. Any problems we’ve encountered have been resolved quickly and professionally. The simple layout of the facility, cleanliness, and small size of the community was extremely helpful in my mom’s transition. The nursing staff is diligent in making sure medication is given accurately, and using the doctor who services Brookdale has eliminated many trips to a doctor’s office. While my mom chooses not to participate often in activities, the staff perseveres in encouraging her to attend. When her great grandsons visit, the activities director makes sure mom has something to give the boys. I’m amazed by Brookdale’s commitment to include families and the community in activities such as Easter Egg hunt, Mother’s Day events, Halloween fall festival, Thanksgiving meal, Christmas celebration, and so much more. After my father’s sudden death in 2021, mom lived alone for almost three years. She has benefited greatly from social interaction as well as the consistency of medication and meals. She’s a picky eater, and the staff provides alternative meals at her request. She doesn’t get up in time for breakfast, so they routinely take cereal to her room so she can eat “on her own schedule”. Long story short, the entire Brookdale staff goes above and beyond to make sure my mom’s needs are taken care of, and I am incredibly thankful for them in this season of life. As an only child, I know God has lovingly provided an army of people to help care for my mom. They are truly the hands and feet of Jesus, and they are helping my mom understand His unconditional love in their daily acts of kindness. Reviewed by Jodie Owens

Brookdale is wonderful! The staff is professional, friendly, and compassionate. Our aunt has been there a short time and she felt welcome, comfortable, and safe immediately. We appreciate the dedicated care and support our aunt receives at Brookdale.

My mom has been at Brookdale for 1 month. They are taking really good care of her. She is enjoying all the activities they have daily. Good place for your elderly parent and gives you a piece of mind knowing she is in good hands.

My Mom has been living at Brookdale Broken Arrow for over 2 ½ years, first in Assisted Living and now in Memory Care. During the pandemic, her dementia worsened, and we realized she could no longer live at home. Kari, the director of Brookdale Broken Arrow, and her team guided my family through this emotional and difficult transition at a very unsettling time. The Brookdale Broken Arrow team creates a warm and caring community for both the residents and their families. The staff has provided me support as I try to understand, make sense of and cope with the pain experienced as you witness the decline of a loved one. They have been with me every step of the way, and I truly appreciate and am grateful for their professionalism, compassion and kindness.

My grandmother lived here for 4 years. The staff here treated her so well. The activities direct always decorated well which my grandma appreciated. I’m so thankful for the staff there. The took great care of her and she really loved it. I would highly recommend them to any family looking for an assisted living home for their loved ones.
