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.
Fairforest Grove Senior Living in Columbia, SC
5.0
What we like the most about Fairforest Grove is the friendly staff who appear to know our loved one and recognize us each time we visit; appears to be taking care of our loved one; cleanliness; different activities offered.

The staff is wonderful, kind, and loving to my mother. She tended greatly to every question and concern I have heard during this covid pandemic. This is a tough time with our loved ones in an assisted living with limited visitation, but they have helped her to be happy. Thank you.
