We were taken to two apartments, once it was established what size we needed. The apartments are refurbished when residence move out. The people we met were pleasant and highly pleased with their experiences at Brookdale. They described, interesting activities, great people, both staff and residents. What especially attracted us to this location was the landscape and the fact that there were walking trails between places on the property. It’s very pretty.

The staff was wonderful and showed us all of the different areas that would benefit our friend. We are are now in a holding period due to the individual we had in mind for your facility, has been in the hospital for the last nine years and has been placed on dialysis and is currently in the hospital. Family will contact you has soon has they know what the steps need to be.

I did not like the setting of this facility. It was in a very remote area,roads unmarked and where the people lived, was ununmarked and very difficult to find. The units themselves were very small and unpleasant. They have an option to have a two bedroom but have to open a wall between two units, you have to pay rent for two units which is unfair and you have no choice in the layout of the two bedroom units. Personally would not put my husband in this place.there is no balcony in any units shown.

Need improvements before I would recommend

The very first thing and impression I had about the community was the enthusiasm and openness of your sales coordinator, [name removed]. He always answered my calls, questions and concerns right away. He always took whatever time was needed to be there when I called. On the Face Time tour every thing looked friendly, clean and happy. Since then, I have learned that there are problems with the room not being really ready for someone to move into. Problems with the heating/air conditioning, shower working properly and water temperatures, window blinds missing slats, lack of being able to get help finding way around the facility, finding someone has been in my apartment without my knowing about it ahead of time, finding someone willing to help with hooking up the TV, how to use the equipment in the exercise area, answer questions about finding/selecting a doctor or lawyer and how to go about transferring Rx's to here from Oregon, how to get help in selling my home in Oregon while I am here. The staff and administration seem to feel that if a person is here as an independent living person that they are to give no assistance whatever which is not what people usually do in real life as most people are willing to help out others when they need it or ask for help. This place seems to think you are independent so figure it out for yourself. Also, the food is not something to be proud of nor even share with your friends and visitors. I think that the most valuable asset that Brookdale Santa Catalina has, or I should say had was[name removed] as he has since moved on. What a shame. Overall, I think a lot, a whole lot, could be done to improve the situation here because it has a lot going for it. If I were to do this again right now I would definitely look somewhere else. Again, what a shame.

Review for Brookdale Santa Catalina

Don't be fooled by the beauty. Beautiful area. Upper management says one thing and does another. They give everyone a different price and they raise rent from six to twelve percent. Absolutely ridiculous. Renter beware, They also have a black mold problem.

Brookdale Santa Catalina

Brookdale Santa Catalina would appear to be playing fast and loose with the professional healthcare staff we trust to care for my mother. Quality of the air conditioning units, window coverings, plumbing fixtures, doors and hardware, baseboard, and carpets is surprisingly poor considering the hi rent part of town the facility is located in.

Respectful and honest

This is a beautiful community with very helpful people. Although I don’t eat there often, when I have the food has been very good. All the people I’ve met there have been quite respectful and residents seem quite friendly and happy. We toured about a dozen other communities before deciding on Brookdale.

Very disappointed

Moving into Brookdale was a entire new way of living for my Aunt. She had been on her own for over 40 yrs. She was a bit more nervous than excited only because it was all brand new to her. Just after being there a few weeks she had a couple assisted living associates start bullying her instead of reaching out and helping her, as they were supposed to do. I brought this up to management several times and was informed that they were looking into it. Several gals employed by Brookdale to take care of residents there, were actually showing up to help her and instead they would call her ugly names and give her a hard time. No one would believe a 98 yr old woman, so they kept doing it for several more weeks, with no management stepping in. Her last few weeks here, were tormented by a few staff members, which is just so very wrong ! Brookdale dropped the ball BIG time. They should've stepped up and addressed this issue, which they did NOT ! No one should be treated that poorly....

Outstanding service in a care continuum

The CEO, [name removed], and other management care about the residents and bend over backwards to assist them as needed. They treat my mother like a member of their own family. The facility is well-maintained, the bus drivers are safe and helpful, the activities are varied, interesting, and fun. This is a good community.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know Arizona’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Arizona’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
