Brookdale Asheville Walden Ridge

We are so thankful we found Brookdale. The staff is caring, engaged with the residents, and knowledgeable about health issues. They ensure your loved one is included and comfortable. Staff and caregivers are always available to answer questions, listen to concerns, and you are treated like family.

Very friendly staff, although not enough of them.

Brookdale Asheville Walden Ridge is at the top of the list for care, enrichment, and a safe space for anyone whose family member needs the specialized care for Alzheimer's.  This facility has a small number of residents and a high number of caregivers, allowing for one-on-one interactions, focused care, and enrichment opportunities to maintain a healthy balance of client freedom.  I am a volunteer who spends time speaking with the residents from morning to night.  Each resident has a beautiful story that they may not be able to share due to this debilitating disease that takes their precious memories away.  It is the caregivers who love and nurture these beautiful people when their families cannot be due to location.  I challenge anyone to come and spend a few hours (not just 30 minutes to say you were there for a visit) with the residents to see that their care is outstanding, before passing judgment.  I am appalled at the misleading review below about the condition of the facility. I volunteer because my mother-in-law was an Alzheimer's victim; now my future holds a loving father who is heading down the same road.  I would not hesitate to have my loved one be a part of this community in the future.  Thank you, Brookdale Asheville Walden Ridge, for allowing me to give back, support a forgotten community, and nurture the minds of your residents, who may not work as they once did but still have something to offer.
