Hoping for improvements

Generally, it's pretty good except they do have quite a few kinks that they're trying to work out. And I hope they're able to. There's also some staffing issues. If I had to give them a number now, I probably give them a three but I'm hoping that will go up in the near future. I am hoping that with the new coordinator handling the memory care unit they will be bringing on new hires and there will be, better training. One of my big concerns also is that the GM of the Chelsea need some training himself as to what memory care units are and should be. He thinks he knows it but yet when a very typical situation happens, he'll claim that they may not be prepared to handle it. So my, thinking is they can't be on the fence they're either in the memory care business or they're not. A few of us are having issues with that so hopefully we'll straighten that out in time.

Overall pleased

Staff is fine. More creative activities would be nice. There's an art room but no instructor. [name removed], my boyfriend, would be so much happier with a creative outlet. He needs to create art, but he needs to be led.

Lots of activities.

Be persistent in trying to contact them. Especially if you are not a local person. Don't just send an email. It is very expensive. And small changes in care have big cost impacts. There have been past issues with care. Been positive recently.

Would overall recommend

The Chelsea was excellent. Unfortunately, a bit too expensive for us. But I'd recommend the Chelsea to anyone. Clean facilities. Great/friendly staff. Really the Only negative thing I would say is that they could do better with diet plans for residents to manage things like diabetes or other conditions.

Friendly facility close to home

The facilities immaculate, the staff was friendly, the food looked good and they had a number of activities available on a daily basis. The staff is extremely friendly and responsive. I just had some early hiccups with the administrative staff that kept them from being a 5. Those issues have since been resolved

Caring people.

My mom has been here since Thanksgiving. She loves it, loves her independence. Has made friends here. It is easy to get in touch with the facility if you need too. Only negative I had was my mother had to go to the hospital for her blood sugar and I wasn’t notified until she was already at the hospital. I only live 10 minutes from facility so I was close enough to have been notified. Very good facility but like everything, you need to ask questions.

Great Activities

It is clean and well maintained. Have had multiple medication mistakes with incorrect medication being given to mom. After multiple weeks of no response from the staff and executive director, I went to the CEO. He went directly to the Brookhaven location and within 48 hours, called me to explain the issue and how they resolved it. He also apologized for the lack of response from his team. Mom is involved in a lot of activities, and we can see them regularly on the Facebook page. The cost has gone up significantly since May. Mom's level of care change raised the monthly rate by [fee removed]. Also, we have been hit with a hidden cost regarding her monthly medication. Instead of buying them bulk with 90 day supplies, the IPPC monthly fee is about $[removed] more than we budgeted.

Review for The Chelsea at Brookhaven

I would say that overall, the experience has been good. I feel the level of care is better than what he was receiving in his previous living situation. There have been some miscommunication issues with the staff, which I find to be common with all facilities and as a family member, you really have to make sure, you visit often and communicate your wishes to the staff on a regular basis.

I have not spent much time at the Chelsea. My boyfriend, [name removed], is the one we got placed there.

My boyfriend, [name removed], is the one his daughter and I had been looking for a place for. The cost was a factor and we found that the Chelsea was affordable for him. What we liked about the facility was the size and beauty of the apartments. We also liked that it was small and there weren't too many people living there. [name removed] suffers from severe depression, but he has made a handful of friends and we couldn't be happier. He seems happier. I wish for only one thing. That there were more activities for him. He can be a very creative artist, and there is an art room that he says is never open. He does enjoy the trips to the beaches and Bingo a few times a week. It's a good place.

Peace of Mind, Caring Hands

I would definitely recommend this facility, Mom is always spotless and dressed well. The meals are good and the residents can have a choice of meals as well as sandwiches. The care takers are professional and pay close attention to the residents. I can sleep at night knowing Mom is safe 24/7. My Mom is on the memory section and there is a separate dining and recreation room. There is never a crowd of care givers hanging around the nursing desk or gathered around talking, they are talking to and taking care of the residents. The staff also make sure the residents are up and involved in the activities, not laying around in bed. Went to mass with Mom on Wednesday and we both enjoyed it very much.

Very Accommodating

The staff is very accommodating. The facility is not overly full, which is nice. My loved one gets plenty of individual attention, and they're meeting her needs.

Overall positive experience

My loved one was only here for 3 short weeks. During the time here, the staff were wonderful. They went above and beyond for my mother and were very attentive to her needs. The facility was brand new so they were still learning and just getting started. There were not many activities going on while she was here, but by the time we were leaving they had added a lot of new programs. It was overall a positive experience.

New, Nice, and Worthwhile

I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. They are trying very hard. This is a newer community and have been open for about nine months. The staff they have are very good; however, they are understaffed and working on it. There is a movie theater that they could show more movies geared towards the residents genre. It would be nice to see religious activities coming into the community. They are trying very hard, overall.

My tour review

This was a great tour experience and a brand new community but my loved one felt like he would get lost in this community and we felt like this would be an issue. It also was not all inclusive and this was something that we were looking for for our loved one.

My tour review

The tour was nice and the community was very nice. This community was expensive. I wrote the cost and the service that was provided and I ranked all of the communities that I was interested in. It just is personally not my way to go. I had to find a middle ground to make the best living situation for my loved one.
