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.

The level of care, cleanliness and resident to staff onsite ratio has declined significantly in the past 6 months. Residents paying for top level care, should get that level of care.

Brookdale is not a good senior living home another place that I would allow my family to resign at they're not reliable the staff hiring staff does not have good judgment they don't hire for credentials that hire for relationship and I don't think that that is fair they don't have the residence best entrance at heart money with them they should hire for credential love and personality and not their own family because it's their family other places for my family to reside in.

I used to volunteer here many years ago and the staff was amazing then. Now I have a close friend living here and the staff is still friendly, accommodating and treat the clients like adults, not babies. They make sure they're taking care with love, compassion and support. All the Residents are cared for with respect, even my dear friend. It's an adjustment for us all but my dear friend is at a safe home now.

The first thing you will notice will be the friendly atmosphere. My mother has been a resident of just over a month. She loves it. The food is great and the attention to detail. It has been a great choice for her. And for us the piece of mind knowing she is being taken care of.
