Brookdale Shawnee

Ever since my mom moved into Brookdale Shawnee, she has had all the care she needs. The beginning was rough, as it is for everyone making that large of a life change, and they helped mom AND us through that time. I no longer have to worry about the care that mom needs as I have full confidence in staff and community of Brookdale Shawnee.

We love Brookdale Shawnee for our mother. The workers genuinely care and engage with the residents. The dining area is always very clean & the Food is delicious. The apartment is perfect size and always kept clean. We moved our mother into another facility before Brookdale and found a very different surrounding and feel extremely lucky/blessed to have found this place. 5-Stars from our family.

My parents and their cat have been residents at Brookdale Shawnee since March of 2018. It was difficult for me to come to the realization that they needed more help than I could give. The staff was very caring, understanding and helpful throughout the process. Mom, Dad and the cat have settled in well. The staff is wonderful, making sure they are checked on and assisted as needed. Meal reminders, nice dining rooms, activities throughout the day, hairdresser and musicians who come to entertain. (I’ve seen nail polish on mom more now than while I was growing up. She likes to show me the colors she picks out.). Occasionally I pick up mom and dad for church, and when I arrive, they are all ready to go. The associates even do moms hair all cute. I can tell they care for the residents by the way they interact with them and take care of them. They have had outings such as a drive in the country, going to an apple orchard to squeeze apples for cider, and going to grade schools to listen to children practice reading (mom and dad were very excited to tell me about this!). The staff is very good at communication and in keeping me updated on my parents; and they are available when I call or email. I am very lucky we found Brookdale Shawnee.

Brookdale Shawnee has been an ideal place for my mother. She can be challenging but they have stepped up many times to make accommodations for her. Great experience for mom for almost two years.

My father has been a resident of Brookdale Shawnee since August of 2016. Since he has been there his physical health has improved because of the wonderful and consistent care he receives. The staff see to it that he is engaged in daily activities and are always patient and kind. It is a hard decision to move your loved one to a memory care facility, but seeing my dad's improved health and mental attitude makes me feel like we made the best choice for him by moving him to Brookdale Shawnee.
