Great ALF option in S Tampa

Elevators are an issue but fortunately for my dad on 3rd floor there is an extra elevator. The higher floors are a challenge when one goes down. Food hit or miss but ok. Staff have all been great. Facility is clean and nice décor. I would recommend to others.

Not great

They do a great job selling the property, but a terrible job on-boarding new residence. I would never have chosen them had I known this. It is hard to get a response from the staff, there is no communication and my parents are always confused.

Brookdale is the total package.

Love everything about Brookdale. The location is breathtaking. The staff is first class! [name removed] and [name removed] went above and beyond with the admission process. Brookdale has truly been an answer to our prayers. My mom has found her new home.

Brookdale Bayshore review

A category to be added, make sure you check adequacy of repair/maintenance staff. I would recommend if a discussion of organic food might include an option, at additional expense of course for this. Maintenance staff should be capable and qualified. There should not be cash flow excuses.

Sorely disappointed....

My aunt moved into Brookdale anticipating a community providing good food, outings, activities, and new friends to share experiences. The first week she contracted COVID, quarantined with only meal delivery to her room, which was cold and inconsistent, such that one day she received in the evening all of her 3 daily meals - breakfast, lunch, and dinner - at one time, cold and inedible. A fire alarm in the middle of the night, stranded her on the 11th floor 1 hour without a means of taking the stairs and without direction from the staff (no direction from intercom systems located on each floor). Eventually, a private aide to a resident called the fire department, who remained on the line and assisted. Her unit was damaged during Hurricane Milton. Staff advised her to return - elevator broken, window seals broken, drywall removed. Respiratory issues within an hour. She's unable to reside in her unit. Several times we've tried to get clarity from the administration but no response.

Good place for self-reliant residents

My father needed more care than they were staffed to provide. He wasn't seen regularly by a competent doctor and ended up with a severe urinary tract infection. The nursing staff was inadequate and undertrained to deal with his needs. It's not that they're bad people, they just aren't equipped to handle patient who has high needs.

My loved one is a resident at Brookdale Bayshore and everything has been very good for her so far at this facility. I would recommend Brookdale Bayshore to others looking for Assisted Living care for their loved ones.

friendly and caring staff

To be honest I think they are doing what they need to do by exchanging the windows and slowly renovating the inside. However, for me the only thing that matters is that my dad is happy and that he is well cared for. And, he is! The staff are very friendly and seem to enjoy their jobs. The overall appearance is not a top priority then.

Would not recommend

My mother was I'll with c-diff for 3 months and even though I kept trying to get the nurse for the facility, [name removed] to have her checked out, she never came. Mom ended up at the hospital for 4 months! I was aware that there were several other residents with loose stools, and I believe the unclean buttons and door handles were infested with c-diff. Her room was not cleaned. I had to clean it. If it weren't for [name removed] the receptionist I would rate them a zero.
