Delivering the Best in Senior Care

If you’re just starting to investigate senior living, you might have noticed that there are several options to choose from before you even move in! Fortunately, selecting from these different kinds of senior living care levels isn’t a task you have to tackle alone. We’ve compiled some of the most important info about each care level here. And if you’d like some help figuring out which one is right for you, our helpful associates are just a phone call away.

Independent Living

Independent living is ideal for those who still enjoy an engaging lifestyle and want more freedom to pursue their passions. Residents can spend less time worrying about things like home ownership, maintenance and landscaping and more time doing the things they love in a place designed to feel and function like a home.

Assisted Living

Assisted living is a wonderful option for people who need assistance with daily activities like managing medications, dressing, bathing, housekeeping and meals. It’s a redefined independence that allows you and your loved ones the peace of mind you deserve and gives you more time to invest in the people and hobbies you love.

Memory Care

Memory care services provide quality care and support for seniors living with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. With gentle guidance and visual reminders, these programs provide a secure, safe space with activities that meet a resident’s skill level and allow them to flourish even with advanced expressions of the disease.

Skilled Nursing

Skilled nursing provides seniors with two services: short-term and long-term care. Short-term care programs are designed to provide recovery from surgeries, illnesses and accidents. Long-term care is for those who could benefit from 24-hour nursing care.

Continuing Care Retirement Communities

A continuing care retirement community (CCRC) offers multiple care levels on one campus, which means you don’t have to move even if your healthcare needs change in the future. With a full range of personalized assistance and care options that fit your lifestyle, you can have peace of mind knowing your future is taken care of.

Hospice

Hospice provides compassionate care and support to individuals and caregivers who are living with terminal illness, no matter where they call home. Our hospice associates can provide on-call support, clinical and skilled care as well as spiritual and emotional counseling and music therapy. Let us handle the care, so you can enjoy the precious moments of life.

Home Health

Home Health provides licensed clinical care in the comfort and privacy of your own home. Our team includes registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, rehabilitation therapists, social workers and aides to provide you a wide range of skilled care that’s designed to help you achieve your health and wellness goals.

Hi, If you are looking at reviews, then you have started the sometimes difficult decision of where should my parents live, as you are realizing that staying in their home is not working anymore. I visited 5 locations and took them to see the 2 that i felt met all our needs. I wanted their input even though they kept saying they were fine living at home. As a loving child, I could see they were not fine at home. We chose Brookdale and I would recommend them over and over again! The entire staff from the desk help, aides, nurses, maintenance help, servers in the dining room, and administrative staff ,work together and make everything great for their residents. My parents have been at Brookdale for two years and have enjoyed many of the activities, bingo, parties, musical concerts, swimming and hanging out in the courtyard. I like visiting them and i think that says a lot! Nice senior community. very happy with our choice.

I came to Brookdale in January, 2023 and have no complaints. I lost my wife in 2021, we had no children, and I have a younger brother. I turned 90 this past April. The residents and staff are my friends and relatives. I have been favorably impressed by the congeneality of both the residents and staff members right from the start. I believe the friendliness and respect for each other starts at the top with our Executive Director. Marcia McAlpine, and the staff follows her leadership. With the residents overwhelming satisfaction we have a happy home.

We moved our mom into Brookdale 1 math ago. We started with a list of 20 places in the area, narrowed it to six, then 2. Brookdale was a CLEAR winner. Although she was nervous and VERY apprehensive about leaving the home she lived in for 50 years, she is now truly is like a new woman; walking around confidently, welcoming new residents to the community, and keeping herself engaged every day!
