What this means for your family

While many families report excellent, personalized care, the recent reports of administrative billing errors and limitations regarding end-of-life equipment are significant red flags. We strongly recommend verifying the facility's specific policies on medical equipment and billing transparency before committing to a contract.

Brookdale Ithaca receives high praise from many families who appreciate the personalized, compassionate care provided by staff who take the time to learn individual resident quirks. However, recent negative reviews highlight serious concerns regarding administrative errors, billing issues, and limitations in end-of-life care capabilities. Families should weigh the strong interpersonal relationships reported by some against the operational and communication frustrations cited by others.

Key Review Excerpts

Everyone knows my stepdad and his little quirks and just how to take care of him and other residents in a very loving and respectful manner.

Memory care family member · 2024★★★★★

From the moment she arrived, the staff welcomed her with kindness, patience, and genuine compassion. They take the time to truly understand her needs and personality, and it shows in the way she’s treated every single day.

Memory care family member · 2025★★★★★

Unfortunately, they didn’t tell us that such care could not include bringing in a hospital bed. They were too eager to to “qualify” this senior couple, one of whom died in less than a month, and the survivor left the next day.
