The staff members at Brookdale Ennis community are awesome! the staff has been so kind and loving to my dad. And he is not the most lovable person around at this time in his life! Have bent over backwards to help him and me.

Staff know our dad and seem to care about him for the most part. Minimal turnover amongst caregivers, leadership has changed 3 times in 13 months. Kitchen staff and maintenance staff have also turned over. It's good for the value. Newest manager seems to be making positive changes.
