Brookdale Canton

We toured here for my mom a few years back. Mom liked the view of the courtyard from the rooms we saw. The residents were playing cards in the sunroom. Mom had been an avid bridge player, so that was a plus for us. They have a salon which is open once a week for the residents. They do haircuts and perms which mom liked. Front porch facing the road to sit and watch traffic. It was between Akron where my sister is and Dover where I live, but ultimately mom needed skilled care and we kept her in Dover.

Very nice community. We liked the smaller feel of the building. Kinda feels like you’re in someone’s house rather than senior care. My grandpa liked the enclosed courtyard area and once a week they have yoga and the instructor brings her two dogs. Aides respond to calls pretty quick and the food seems good. Always smells good when I come in after work to visit before dinner.

It is a small facility and I knew my mom would do better at it than a larger facility. It is Very easy to talk to staff to resolve issues. We have had a very good experience

The nursing staff seems great. The activities director is now new but the old one was amazing and my mom said the new one seems great as well. The facility is very clean, no "nursing homey smell." When I needed to contact the staff they would return my call in a timely manner. It's pretty small, so you def won't get lost. Security is on point. Everyone I have had contact with has been great

The staff I have encounter are very contention and very concerned about the well being of all residents that I have talked with.
