Downhill Experience
It started out pretty good, then after I chose a different Hospice than they recommended, things went down hill. Most of the aides were friendly and took good care of [name removed]. The admin staff were friendly at first. Then their attitude changed and they wouldn't even acknowledge me.

A caring place for your loved ones
What we really like about Brookdale Saginaw is the staff, they are awesome! I kept telling them that they are all Angels. The meals, the activities, the community and keeping things clean are other things we like. Based on our experience so far we would recommend Brookdale Saginaw to other families looking for a place for their loved ones.

A great experience
Everything was great with Brookdale Saginaw. They could not have been more helpful during the whole transition period. They were very friendly and understanding. She was in memory care and it looked to me like they really tried to engage residents both socially and activities wise. For example they sent a picture of her working in the garden. Not being isolated is very important for dementia residents. From a care standpoint they were really on their game. I would absolutely recommend this facility to others.

What I Was Looking For with Caring Staff
I am very satisfied with the community. The community is clean, has a home feeling, and a friendly environment. The staff communication with the family is very personable about our loved one and they are responsive to our questions. There are three meals a day served to the residents. Some of the care the community provides includes dressing, assistance medication management and hygiene care.

Best place for your parents if you cant have them at home
I would highly recommend this community. The staff there are well trained and caring. They follow up well they are just really dedicated people. We love it here at this community. My loved one is not able to participate in the activities but they always have things going on for the residents. Tomorrow is a spa day and they will do nails and massages and more. They have activities like memory games, craft projects, happy hour and more there is just always something going on. I cant speak highly enough of them and it just feels like home they are so caring and concerned about her I know that she is taken care of.

Terrible manager
The manager at this Saginaw location is terrible. She put her finger in my face and yelled at me. She is condescending and has anger issues. There has been a lot of staff turnover since she started. The dementia house needs updating. Care staff is very friendly and wonderful.

Best foot forward
The staff does a good job of putting their best foot forward. They usually have about 3 staff members per 20 residents. The building is very clean and attractive looking. The rooms are appropriately sized and spacious. The staff cleans often as well as doing the laundry. They serve 3 meals a day and serve desserts/snacks. If my mom needs food in the middle of the day they are able to get her more food. For activities, they offer exercise classes. I was lead to believe they would be doing memory care and have different groups come in to entertain but I have seen very little and not as much as I thought there would be. They also said that they would take my mom on field trips but from what I’m aware that hasn’t happened in the 2 months she’s been there.

Outstanding in every way
A very nice facility - great food, nice spots for TV and visitors...not too big...However, the best part about the place is the people who work there...wonderful, caring employees that my dad took to right away...and lots of experience - each of the key staff members has at least ten years there - I've learned that's pretty rare in that industry... There's a lot of apprehension and at least a little bit of guilt in all of us when we make that decision for our parents, but the Brookdale staff was tremendous from the minute me and my sister walked into the place for our initial visit, and they continuously keep us posted...Another important thing: They have a very active and engaging schedule for the "tenants" so they're challenged mentally, physically (to their limitations, of course), and socially. I love my dad more than anything in the world, and I am so happy he is now part of Brookdale...

Awful community
I'm done with this place. They do not have a safety system in place that is adequate for residents. The food is awful and if someone doesn't like something they give them a bowl of Jell-O for dinner. It was a terrible experience. They over billed me and I'm still getting that worked out. I've had enough of them.

Happy Camper
This all started because I needed to find a place for respite care for my father for a two week period. Brookdale was recommended by a Place for Mom. I was contacted with minutes after talking a Place for Mom's representative. They bent over backwards to help me get my father admitted. (This is not like checking into a hotel!) They made this as painless as possible. Then at the end of the 2 week period my father decided he wanted to stay. Prior to this he was not keen about going to assisted living. The staff again was helpful on getting my father fully admitted and he now resides with them and is happy. They helped make a difficult experience a much easier one!!

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Michigan regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Michigan regulations for Assisted Living.

A Place for Mom has scored Brookdale Saginaw 8.2 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.
