Brookdale Fort Collins Assisted Living

4.5
The pharmacy costs that weren't explained to us. The activities have been much less than what was explained to us. I have tried to help with activities but the people in that department are rarely in their office. You have a great staff and the facility is very nice.

Greeley Village

Very bright place with happy atmosphere. Unfortunately, my Mom only got to spend a month there before she went downhill and had to go to a nursing home and enter Hospice. But all of the personnel at Greeley Village were fabulous. I highly recommend this facility.
