We had a very positive tour experience with The Breckinridge. The staff were all very friendly. We were looking for a facility that had more of a home-like feeling to it, and this was just not the right fit.

True Memory Care
We recently moved my mother from another memory care facility to The Breckinridge. The difference is truely amazing. Here they cater to the residents and their needs, not like other facilities that try to fit them into their mold. Everyone is so kind and caring, you can really tell they love each and every resident. The peace of mind I now have that my mother is happy and cared for has lifted a weight off my shoulders. Thanks to The Breckinridge I can now be her daughter again.

A great place for your loved one
This community has an atmosphere that is more like a home atmosphere. The people are very friendly and compassionate with the residents. I love the fact that they have doors that open at the top so that they can check on the residents hourly.

Smaller, quiet facility
The reason that I chose The Breckenridge was because the residents are able to go outside into a green space that is an acre large, it is all trees and green grass rather than concrete. They are allowed to go in and out as they please but it is secure. None of the other places that I visited had this set up. All of the rooms here are private, they have 18 residents so it is a smaller community which I love. The only issue with it being smaller is it is harder to get visitation times, especially on the weekends. You really are not forced to participate in anything that you do not want to do which is great for him since he is so laid back. It is a good fit for my husband because it is so quiet.

Best Place for Dementia Patients
I would tell others that this is the best place to take a loved one.
My loved one was not happy anywhere, until they got to The Breckinridge. The staff knew how to care for my loved one and keep them calm.

For memory care residents only
It is for advanced dementia and Alzheimers residents only. They do a good job caring for the folks. It is a secure community. They have a nice outdoor space for residents. They have a secured walking path.

Assisted living at it’s best
This is a smaller home but has enough long time staff that assist each other as well as each resident. They are very attentive to the resident’s needs, they eat alongside the residents and check on the residents at various times of the day. They love the residents as if they were their own family. When my loved one was in the hospital the nurse remarked as how well the skin was taken care of indicating there was no signs of bedsores or any other breakdown of the skin. For those who can they are to walk around not only inside but also on the grounds. Very happy my love one is here!

Breckinridge is Fantastic!
We brought my uncle to The Breckinridge in May 2015 from another facility where he had spent less than 4 months and was constantly being "sent out" (meaning he would be sent to a psychiatric hospital for approx 5 days for his meds to be adjusted). This was not good for his overall health as it upset and confused him greatly. He had no idea why the trips to strange places in the middle of the night. His ankles swelled from constant pacing because of the confusion. Finding The Breckinridge was like opening the door to Heaven! He could roam outdoors on pretty days over the three acre backyard which he thought was his own. No alarms would sound as he entered or exited any of the three doors to the beautifully landscaped garden of Eden. They were usually kept together as a group as they watched movies on a big screen, or played games or trivia in the dining room. The meals were downhome southern comfort type and family was welcomed to join their loved one for a meal. In seven months' time my uncle gained 15# and 4" in his pants and I had to go shopping for bigger pants. He thrived at Breckinridge. In the 15 months he spent here never once were we called to come settle him down, or to come because they couldn't manage his behavior. Another huge benefit was the resident doctor who came weekly and kept a check on all the residents. No outside appointments were necessary as lab work, changes in meds were all done in-house. Management and staff were the best and there was very low turnover so residents got to know the staff well and they became family. I can't say enough good about The Breckinridge, only that no other facility can compare to it. Family can visit and leave with confidence that their loved one is being well cared for and treated with love and respect. No worries!

Happy with my choice
My husband has been at The Breckinridge for only a few weeks, but I am already sure that he's in the right place. The meals are wholesome and tasty, the staff friendly and helpful, and the care for residents is top notch. The nurse called me yesterday to let me know that my husband had fallen during the night but was okay. (As a Parkinson's patient, he has had many falls.) I appreciate her letting me know. His medications are given on time. A doctor who keeps an eye on the residents has called to check on certain medicines that he questioned. All of these facts impress me, and I'm so pleased that our son and I decided on The Breckinridge.

They are just awesome!
They are just awesome! I cannot even think of enough words to adequately describe them. Everyone, from the directory, to the maintenance staff, to the care staff, etc all do wonderful. I would highly recommend The Breckinridge to anybody! I think that other places need to take lessons from them. They do a great job caring for Alzheimers patients. The atmosphere is very open, warm, and just all around nice and pleasant. Everything about it is just awesome@

A Place for Mom has scored The Breckinridge 8 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.
Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
