Brookdale San Marcos South

As the now former Executive Director of this community I want to highly encourage you to bring your loved one here! This is not the shiny new penny like many of the newer communities but you will never find a better group of staff and residents! The community is clean and well cared for by tenured staff that truly care for the people they serve. The kitchen staff has a combined 41 years of cooking experience with Brookdale and it shows! They cook with love and care and make some dang good food! The Health and Wellness Nurse, Laura Ramirez is one of the kindest, calmest people I have ever had the honor of working with. She knows her stuff and does it with excellence and compassion! And sweet doesn’t even begin to describe our Activity Director Brytanny. You will fall in love with her bubbly personality and heart for resident “fun!” Your heart will be at peace with your loved one here! This building works hard to make senior living affordable for all! Call and setup a tour, have lunch, visit and you will feel the warmth of the community and I promise…YOU WILL BE SOLD on moving your loved one to 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!
