Very caring staff

The staff was caring & engaging. The cost was reasonable & the food good. My only issue was the management was a little out of touch. Not terrible but not as on top of things. There was a change shortly after getting my relative situated. My sister was only there for three months before she passed away & she was in hospice care the last month, so my experience was probably not normal. My only issue was the need to be let in but a staff member, so sometimes you had to wait for someone to be available.

Is this as good as it gets in the US?

It's too easy to call a home with people in various states of debilitating disability "depressing," but that word comes to mind. This place has a veneer of cheeriness, which the residents themselves uphold with smiles and waves. The staff act very nice too. Weekends, the place seems adrift, with leadership missing and activities simply not begun or changed before they've even begun. The food is horrendous, unless the goal is to shorten lifespans: school-lunch type food that flies in the face of all studies on what constitutes healthy eating: white bread, processed meat, lots of sugary desserts and nary a fresh vegetable or fruit. Is this really the best we can do as a nation? Am aware of the more expensive homes having many more resources and better food and attention to the elderly and infirm. We have become blasé as a nation about how we treat the aged, and I hope some compelling leader steps up about these inequities, and that I myself never suffer the same fate as these elders.

Wonderful place to live

Interim Home Health

The current staff at Vickery Parke provide excellent care. This team has came in within the last few months and has made a huge impact on the residents, staff, and us as a partner with them. My team and I look forward going to this building and assisting with the residents home health needs. We are honored to work along side the Vickery Parke staff to ensure great quality care!! Vickery Parke is a hidden jewel in Central, SC.

Very impressed!

I toured with [name removed] recently and I could not have asked for a better experience. She was so helpful not only about Vickery Parke but the process in general. It is all so overwhelming but I can say she eased my mind. The facility is so warm and homey. It is decorated beautifully for Christmas and smelled so nice. She had great models to show us and all of the staff were so friendly. We were able to meet all of the managers and it is apparent they love what they do! We will be making a decision sooner than later and we already know Vickery Parke will be our choice! Truly a God send!

They are the BEST!!

We just moved our Dad in yesterday and let me say, from the very first time we walked in there we could tell it was wonderfully different than other places we visited. The staff is AMAZING! We have been in touch about several things over the past couple weeks and each time they are more helpful than the last. I've mainly dealt with [name removed]and [name removed], they're so professional, sweet and both go above and beyond! Everyone makes my Dad and the family feel so welcome. We found our perfect spot for Dad and are so grateful to Vickery Parke for running this facility with an attitude of excellence!

Our families' experience

I will be perfectly honest. We were happier with the facility before hands changed and the name changed. After December 2023, staff was short handed and merely did what had to be done to get by. Staff was leaving on a weekly basis and the residents suffered from it. Meals were not what we expected they should be for elderly residents. Too many hotdogs/sandwiches and chips. If they had been able to keep up the care/routine as it was when my Mother moved in[date removed] , she probably would still be at Vickery Parke.

Tour Experience

We toured Brookdale Central during our search for an Assisted Living facility for my mother. This facility was very nice. The cleanliness and friendliness were great. However, our tour guide and sales person was a little pushy.

Review for Brookdale Central

They help as much as possible individually. I would like to see more daily planned community group activities. Very good place for Assisted living they take good care of loved ones. We picked this community because it's more like home, cost in budget, staff, medical and transportation available if needed.

Good So Far

It has been good for the most part. Medical is good for the most part. PT and OT is good. Food could be better, and communication among the staff so even new hires are on the same page could be better.

Tour experience

I toured Brookdale Central and it was super nice, all of the people I spoke with were lovely. With my loved ones injury, I just felt another facility that had call button necklaces would be better. Brookdale had cords to pull in the rooms, but I was nervous she would not be able to get to it if needed. The sales gal followed up with me many times after we had told them we chose another facility, it was sweet and I understand she is doing her job, but it was just a bit of overkill.

Our experience so far, overall pleased

We chose Brookdale Central because of the price but also because when I got there the atmosphere was very clean and it did not have the typical nursing smell to it. The staff in the beginning was good, it has somewhat deteriorated and I am not sure what happened. I have had a conversation with the manager here and he understands the communication is not up to standards. I am hoping to see improvements there.

Good overall except poor communication from head nurse.

We had a great experience with Brookdale Central EXCEPT the head nurse not communicating with us! We didn't know dad was refusing showers and we were paying for assistance ... My daughter or I were there every day and no communication about this! The director refunded our  in the end. Otherwise a good experience.

Tour experience

I had a wonderful tour experience with Brookdale Central. The facility and the staff were very nice and they have been great with communication and reaching out to me and answering any questions that I have had. They even called and invited me to lunch so we could try the food. The rooms here are a great size. We were looking for respite and they have a minimum stay of 2 weeks which is longer than we needed.

Would Recommend

Overall, I've been happy once we got to be on the same page. I think the staff are good. Once we started to communicate a little bit better, I've been much happier. I'm not sure if other families are just not as involved in their loved one's day-to-day as we are? I had some concerns at first. but now that we're communicating better, I'm a lot happier.

My tour review

Very nice, just was not as memory care orientated as we wanted them to be. The other location was more memory care focused. The tour guide was very helpful.

All our friends and family who visit have great things to say about them.

They are wonderful. Our loved one is happy, and they take good care of her. She says she likes the food. They call me and check in with me. I can't say enough good things about them, everybody there. They've followed Covid protocol and have done a really good job keeping everybody safe. I don't think anybody has been sick there. Their cleaning is as good as it gets, and there's no urine smell. They've been great in working with me and our budget, and from what I can tell, they provide stellar care. I was really worried about placing our loved one, that it would be a bad experience and she wouldn't be happy. But that has not been the case at all.

Would not recommend

It did not work out for our loved one at Brookdale Central. One of the nurses here was very ugly to her and she pretty much just sat and watched tv all day in her room, they had no activities provided for the residents to participate in. I would not recommend to others looking.

A Good Place for Mom

My loved one is having trouble adjusting to the community. This is due to the isolation of family members. My loved one has made friends at the community. I feel they are taking care of her the best they can.
