That is the median for assisted living across Trenton, not this community's price. This community's actual rate depends on room type and care level. Ask us for this month's real numbers.

Brookdale Hamilton (New Jersey) has been a blessing for my mother and our family. Mom, age 104, moved from home live-in assistance to Brookdale eight months ago. Since then Brookdale has met and exceeded our expectations by providing a smooth transition to her new home. At Brookdale, I know she is safe, healthy, comfortable and happy (considering her age). Mom has been provided with very nice room which she rarely uses during the day because of other available activities. The Brookdale administration and staff attend to all of the residents with dignity and respect. It gives me great comfort to know my mother is being well taken for. Thank you.

Our family was in need of an Assistant Living facility for our brother. On my drive to an appointment for a tour of an Assistant Living facility I noticed a sign for Brookdale Senior Living. I stopped by late in the day and asked if someone could take me on a tour of the facility. Fortunately I was accommodated. I felt welcomed and comfortable by the staff and the residents I met. It seemed clear to me that the residents are cared for with kindness and respect. The public space as well as the various resident rooms are clean and spacious. There is a lovely outdoor space adjacent to the large dining room where residents congregate on warm days to enjoy the beautiful flowers and fresh air. What stood out to me was how happy and engaged the residents seemed. I was impressed by the residents I saw engaged in conversation and laughter with one another creating a home like atmosphere rather than an institution. Choosing a facility for a loved one is not an easy decision. I toured several Assistant Living facilities but Brookdale Senior Living "felt right" for our brother. After our visit to Brookdale Senior Living we were relieved as well as positive that our brother would adjust quickly, enjoy the friendships he would make there and be happy in his new surroundings. We made the right decision! Virginia Coleman

My husband has been a resident at Brookdale Hamilton for 18 months. Both my husband and I have benefited from the community atmosphere which is a constant throughout the building. The Director instills this in the staff and this creates a trust and confidence for all that care for him. He has benefited from the Memory Care Support, Engagement Opportunities and Activities that are offered daily. Friends For Life is a monthly event organized by the Sales Manager often bringing in a DJ along with refreshments. This is a community event encouraging family involvement. I have made many friends as I visit daily and receive genuine support which is quite comforting at what can be a difficult journey. I am very pleased in choosing Brookdale Hamilton for my husband.
