Brookdale Fillmore Pond Description

It's not about shrinking your life; it's about expanding your horizons. If you're looking to trade home maintenance for more free time, Brookdale Fillmore Pond is the perfect place for you! Our community is set in the foothills of the Green Mountains, so there's plenty to explore right outside your door. If you need three levels of care, including independent living, assisted living and memory care, we have what you need on our campus. Here you'll have plenty of room for a garden and to host outdoor parties. We have a variety of floorplans to choose from, so you can find the perfect pet-friendly apartment for your needs. Whether you're looking for a studio, one-bedroom or two-bedroom option, we've got you covered.

Assisted Living
Assisted living is the perfect solution for seniors who need a little more help with day-to-day tasks than those in independent living. These communities offer a wide range of support, from help with daily living and basic care to recreational activities and transportation. They often have programs and team members in place who can provide this assistance.

Memory Care
Our memory care program offers a personalized approach that is designed to help your loved one feel a sense of belonging and purpose, while still preserving their individuality. One way to ensure your loved one receives the best possible care is by having the same associates provide care whenever possible. Our memory care communities are designed to look and function like a private home, while providing a secure environment.

Dining
Dine with friends at your favorite restaurant every day, without leaving home. Our focus is on creating a dining experience that you'll remember, with healthy and delicious meals. We're always happy to include your requests, suggestions, or even family recipes in our menus. Your loved one can feel a sense of belonging and familiarity during mealtime as a memory care resident with consistent preselected seating and dementia-friendly menus with appealing offerings that assist in full engagement in the dining process.

    Employee Reviews for Brookdale Senior Living

    3.06 out of 5 stars. Based on 1000 reviews

    Employees of Brookdale Senior Living generally have positive things to say about the company. They appreciate the free parking, paid orientation and training hours, and nice residents. However, they have noted that the health insurance is expensive and the deductibles are high. Additionally, CNA's PTO for the first year is nearly nonexistent and the pay deposit system is unusual. There is also a lack of work-life balance, as employees are often called in on days off due to staff shortages. Employees have also reported that management does not advocate for them and that communication is not always good. They have also noted that the pay rate is low and that the facility is often understaffed. Employees have also reported that the security system is an issue and that the training is too automated. Advice to management includes improving communication, fostering staff development, enhancing benefits, and stopping taking credit for work that the front-line workers conduct.
