My 96-year-old mother spent 12 years living at Brookdale University Park, first independently and then in assisted living (AL). The community was engaged and supportive, the staff helpful and caring. When mom arrived in AL she required extra help with mobility and extra attention to personal care. We never worried for a moment that her needs would be met, and always with a smile. This was especially true at the very end. Brookdale U.P. is a first-rate, well-run independent and assisted living community.

My Mom is 87 and has been at Brookdale University Park for almost 3 years. I can't express how well she has been taken care of. Rosalie heads up the group and she is wonderful. Whenever I have a question or there ate any issues, she is always available to my brother and I. She responds immediately if I have questions, and also keeps us informed. Rosalie and her staff are amazing and always keeps up with our Mom. Rosalie is very straight foreword and always responds to any inquiries we may have. My brother and I feel very supported by Roslies and staff, and feel very comfortable that our Mom is being well taken care of. I can't express enough how that makes us feel. If you had ten stars, I would gladly rate Rosalie and her staff there. We love where our Mom is, and how well she is taken care of and supported.

It is a blessing to have Mom so well cared for at the Assisted Living community here. Mom started in the Independent Community at Brookdale for three + years. As her needs changed, the transition was made so easy and we couldn't be more impressed by the staff and amenities. Mom seems years younger under their compassionate assistance. Thank you to Rosalie, Zee and the entire staff for all you do every day to make such a difference.

My mother-in-law lived at Brookdale for four years before her passing. She was a resident of both the independent living and the assisted living facilities. She loved living there and the staff was the most warm, friendly, caring and professional of any that I have ever encountered. The staff of the assisted living facility went way beyond anything that I could have wished for with her care. She was cared for in an extremely professional and caring manner, always with respect and dignity. Rosalie and her staff were the most amazing care team I have ever had the pleasure of working with. There was absolutely nothing they wouldn't do for my mother-in-law, and my appreciation for what they did can't be expressed in a short review. I would highly recommend the Brookdale facility, their assisted living care staff and all their support staff to anyone who may be looking for a facility to care for their loved ones. I believe if you need excellent care for a family member, you should highly consider the facility at Brookdale University Park.

This is an Independent Living with Assisted Living apartment complex. We’ve been here ~8 months and there is a variety of activities so we’ve been making new friends. The staff is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable which is great as we’re new to Denver and Colorado. Food has been good and filling. 4 stars since something might get better.
