My experience with Brookdale is positive. It is much more important than I initially realized to carefully match the capabilities of the prospective resident to the level of care the facility offers.

The Place at Shadow Oaks in Aiken, SC

We were very pleased with The Place at Shadow Oaks... My brother seemed to be comfortable there and was well taken care of. He has very limited funds ...therefore we can’t use them frequently. But it is wonderful though to be offered respite for short term care.
