I recently moved to independent living at Brookdale Santa Fe. Who knew I was such a social butterfly after living alone for such a long time! Staff go above and beyond to help you and the residents are so friendly. After just a few days I had friends who greet me with hugs. Plenty of activities and road trips around Santa Fe. Friday social time with dancing. I couldn’t be happier if I tried.
