    Review

    Brookside Inn on Murat St. is a remarkable assisted living facility that boasts an inviting ambiance and a staff who go above and beyond to create a pleasant environment for their residents. Unfortunately, the only downside seems to be the price, which some individuals find to be too steep for their budget.

    One reviewer mentions that despite the high cost, they were incredibly impressed with the level of cleanliness and the stunning grounds of Brookside Inn. The residents themselves were warm and welcoming, creating a friendly atmosphere that contributes to an overall positive experience. Additionally, the staff members are known for their friendliness and dedication to ensuring resident comfort.

    In terms of healthcare services, the facility falls short as they do not provide insulin injections. This shortfall may pose a significant issue for those who require such medical assistance regularly. However, it should be noted that during discussions with staff about medications and safety measures for residents, great attention was given to addressing each individual's specific needs.

    The management exhibited excellent customer service by arranging a home visit with Julie from Brookside Inn in order to assess one reviewer's mother's situation and discuss her particular requirements. This demonstrates a commitment on the part of the facility to understanding each resident's unique circumstances to ensure personalized care.

    Despite the appealing attributes mentioned above, another potential drawback emerges - limited availability of space. One person expressed interest in becoming a resident but unfortunately encountered an obstacle due to insufficient room availability. Furthermore, even when space was available in the past, it was described as quite small, which may not suit everyone's preferences or needs.

    Additionally, transportation services seem to be lacking at Brookside Inn. For individuals who rely on assistance getting around town or attending appointments outside of the facility, this may prove inconvenient or even burdensome. Moreover, limited activities and social stimulation are other factors worth considering when evaluating this assisted living option.

    In conclusion, while Brookside Inn on Murat St. presents itself as an attractive choice for assisted living, it may not be suitable for everyone. The facility's impeccable cleanliness, breathtaking grounds, and friendly staff contribute to its overall appeal. However, the high price tag may deter some potential residents. Moreover, the absence of insulin injections and limited space availability are aspects that can impact the decision-making process. Furthermore, the lack of transportation services and limited activities may also influence a person's choice regarding their preferred assisted living facility.
