Family Environment!

The managers here are amazing! The residents here are all wonderful people and get along with everyone. It is very much a family environment at this community. They enjoy games, entertainment, and have such a great happy hour which is made special by the Chef's appetizers that she makes for these occasions.

Great Community!

The activities keep residents engaged throughout the day. The residents always look forward to the outings on Fridays that they get to choose beforehand. The dining menu, the residents enjoy because they get to choose from various entrées. The memory care also have great activities to engage the residents and they go on their outings once a month on Fridays.

Review for Brookdale Phillippi Creek

My brother in law who lives there isn't happy with the dining room service. We know you are short handed in there and we try to explain that to him but at 93 years of age he is impossible sometimes. Other than that he is happy there.

[name removed] and his team are excellent. They treat the residents with great respect. They are excellent from the top down. The cafeteria is a 5 star cafeteria. They cater to different types of residents when it comes to food. The place is clean and free of bad smelling odors. The building is extremely well maintained including the front door.

The staff members are very helpful. Everyone here cares. I like the B-fit exercise program. They play a lot of games and one of my favorites is playing cards during happy hour and we have happy hour every day at 3pm.

Review

Would recommend this facility to others. And hope some of the new staff adhere to the rules of the facility and family members. Most staff members are kind and friendly and they are always attentive. Some still need a little work but I think/hope that they are willing to learn. Overall I’m happy with the care.

Mom feels safe and comfortable

Caring for elderly people is very difficult emotionally and physically. They helped us make the hard decision with our mom. The transition was smooth and as they gotten to know her, they have given her dignity and shown her kindness.

Review for Brookdale Phillippi Creek

We're very happy with Brookdale.They are very friendly and the food is very good. Communication about getting his medical setup was frustrating. We finally just last week got it set up with the doctor that is going to see and treat him when he needs him. [name removed] is very happy there though and everyone seems to love him. I feel sorry for the people that don't have loved ones to be their spokes person.

Poorly staffed and not much happiness here

Staff has a large turnover, activities are lacking, administrators are hands off and non existent. Short staffed constantly. Food is not very good. That place was a absolute nightmare. Very understaffed, very unprofessional staff that was there.

Do not recommend

Phillippi Creek has a lot of issues. The billing department has made an error every month. There is huge turnover of staff. They are understaffed constantly. The staff is unprofessional for the most part. The food is horrendous. I could go on, but all I can say is: Do NOT recommend!!

This community was not clean and there was not a good smell in the community. There were a lot of stains on the floor and they had not been cleaned up and this was troublesome to me. it was an older community and it looked this way.

Friendly Staff

There are quite a few staff members who care about the residents. The family need to be more proactive at overseeing the medication distribution being done properly. The staff do a good job at making people feel welcome and at home. The interior of the community is kept very nicely. The outside patio area needs to be maintained.
