BROOKDALE SAN MARCOS SOUTH

Brookdale South is such a special place. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the warmth, not just from the cozy environment, but from the people who work there, like the greeting you receive from Ashley at the front. Misty, the Executive Director, leads with her heart and always makes time for residents and families. She’s approachable, responsive, and GENUINELY cares! Wendy in the business office is also fantastic! Super helpful, funny, patient, and always happy to answer questions or walk you through anything. She also has amazing taste in fashion :) Bryttany, the Activities Director, brings so much energy and creativity. She keeps things fun and engaging for the residents and clearly loves what she does. I have to give a special shoutout to Ashley at the front desk, who is also willing to step in & work on the floor when needed. She’s ALWAYS friendly and her kindness and positive attitude are contagious. She’s the first face you see when you walk in, and she sets the tone for the whole experience. She remembers your name, which makes you feel so special. One last honorable mention- Brookdale South partners with Jo Ann Parsons, pastor & owner of New Beginnings Ministries, who provides spiritual care (and fun activities) for the residents out of her own pocket & the kindness of her heart. She has been partnering with this facility for years. She’s so dedicated to the residents as well. These are all such incredible people that anyone would be lucky to work with or get to know. I work for Aspen Hospice just down the street and love partnering with these ladies- we are actually planning a resident fashion show for August 21! Hoping to gather resources & people from the community to make it as special and fun as possible. Please reach out to Brookdale South if you’re interested in helping in anyway! Overall, Brookdale South has an amazing team that goes above and beyond for their sweet residents (& their pups!). This is somewhere that I would move my own family members into, which says a lot. Highly recommend!

I had an order to deliver to a residential who lives at this Senior Living. There was a gentleman and a woman just talking amongst themselves. Didn't even acknowledge me when I came in. The woman who he supposed to be the receptionist at the desk was too busy talking. They didn't say hello or thank you. She just took the delivery out of my hand just continued about her business. What kind of establishment is this. I feel sorry for the residents who live here.

I can not say enough great things about Brookdale South in San Marcos! Jody Stratton and her team go above and beyond to make certain both the residents and their families feel welcomed and involved with the community. My mother-in-law was very apprehensive about making the move to assisted living but adjusted to her new life at Brookdale right away and is enjoying it so much. She is so impressed with the meals and activities not to mention the perks of housekeeping and laundry service weekly. The residents have really taken her under their wing and make sure she is involved with everything the community offers. Bravo Brookdale South!
