The Brooks was a pleasant place to visit and it looks like people enjoy working there and living there. I talked to a resident who has a service dog. My guide was very pleasant and informative. I saw two apartments that seemed very nice. Prices are in line with other residences.

I visited this facility

Ecumen Brooks was a beautiful place. Their accommodations were beautiful. The staff was very helpful. They had a cat, which I love the idea of. He was a big furry cat, and he just visits wherever he wants to. If people want him to come in, they leave their door open. The girl who showed us around was just as sweet as could be. I really liked the place. We visited the whole place, and it's a big place. It's got to be a block long. The people who lived there and the people who showed me around were very ple…

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

My sister has moved into Ecumen Brooks. It's clean. It's small, but that's good for the memory unit. The staff is friendly and nice. They have activities during the week. On the weekends, there aren't as many, but they have activities that they do daily. They have drawing, bingo, games, and snacks. Her room is larger than most. It has a living room, bedroom, and bathroom with a kitchen area. This is very close to what she had when she was in assisted living. I haven't had any issues with th…

I visited this facility

I liked pretty much everything about Ecumen Brooks other than it's a big place, so the walking would have been tough for my mom. The staff was pleasant and she gave us a good tour. They had a nice courtyard and a beauty salon. The place was very nice and very pleasant. It was located not too far from a hospital, and there were restaurants in the area, too.
