Brookdale Niskayuna

My mom moved into Brookdale Niskayuna 4 months ago. Without a doubt, Brookdale Niskayuna is now her FAVORITE PLACE on the planet! We both love the staff, her nurses, the friends she's made, the resident activities she gets to be involved in, and everything supports her still-active lifestyle. The food is absolutely outstanding, and family is always invited to join when visiting. The facility is beautiful, immaculate and has a great vibe; you can tell people are HAPPY there as soon as you walk in. My mom was just diagnosed with dementia and wasn't able to live on her own, and living at Brookdale has brought her back to life again, truly. She has her meals made for her, her meds delivered to her, and has her own beautiful, safe apartment that she loves! I'm beyond grateful to the amaz

My dad is a 93 year old gentleman who is diabetic, legally blind, and profoundly hearing impaired. I searched several facilities before choosing Brookdale and I feel deep in my heart that the best decision was made for him.

I did much research before helping my parents select this place. I am pleased with the care my parents are receiving and recommend it for those who need assisted living. The staff throughout the facility is consistently kind, caring, helpful and supportive. They clearly are dedicated to the well-being of residents and respond quickly to questions and needs. The nursing staff is especially attentive and focused, and there is a welcoming atmosphere. Grateful.

The thing that becomes very obvious after living there for a short time is corporate greed. It is very expensive, care is sub-par, and the turn-over for aids and waitstaff is constant. There is a cold, smile- to -your- face attitude, but no real interest in you besides money. Do not send your loved one there.( Niskayuna location )

Excellent, family-oriented team. All employees (front desk, nurses, aides, kitchen, maintenance and management) really cared about my parents, giving us a great sense of comfort. Many thanks for a wonderful experience.
