Brookdale Dover

My father lived at Brookdale Dover and it was welcoming and just like home. The staff made such a difference for my dad, and took good care of him, and were kind and supportive to me. Not only am I grateful for what they gave my dad, which was a safe and caring place to live…but what they gave me. I knew he was taken care of, which allowed me to be his daughter and not his caregiver. It also allowed me to be present for my husband and children. All of which was priceless.

My father spent the final 9 months of his life a Brookdale Assisted Living in Dover. I cannot say enough good things about their interactions with him & our family. It didn't take long for me to see the camaraderie of the staff, as well as the deep compassion & care they had toward all of their residents. This place truly operates like a family. I attribute this in large part to the executive director, Cheryl Hollis. Brookdale was a God-send to my father, who desperately needed the community, activities & care they provided. They made the remaining months of his life an amazing experience - & for that I am truly grateful! I would recommend this facility to anyone who wants the best overall care for their aging loved one.

My older brother has now lived at Brookdale for over a year and a half and is very happy there. He likes his room and the food and the other residents. He is fairly self-sufficient so does not need a lot of staff assistance but he and I are happy with the availability and quality of care provided by the medical, front desk, and management staff. I appreciate the commitment and teamwork I see and, especially, the strong and responsive management. And while my brother may not have a lot of medical needs, he does have idiosyncrasies and the patience and accommodation staff demonstrate for him and other residents is wonderful. They want to make it possible for residents to continue to stay there and live a quality life even as life changes and as they do. I am very familiar with various Independent living, assisted living and skilled nursing facilities as well as group homes-all through assisting various family members. With that lens, I recommend Brookdale Dover. I do see sense the community feeling of the people who live and work there.

My mom moved in on September 28. It’s only been a short while, but she has adjusted very quickly, and very well. She participates in all the activities, she is eating well, and she is in good spirits every time I visit with her. I feel it is the pleasantness of all the staff at Brookdale that makes the difference. I have even referred a co-worker, who literally just moved his mom in as well. Keep up the good work Brookdale.
