Patricia and Rita: "A Market Right Here at Home"

About Brookdale Senior Living

Brookdale Senior Living offers multiple care levels for seniors in more than 600 communities nationwide. Brookdale helps you find the right care plan for yourself or your loved one. With amenities such as transportation services, salons and private dining rooms and activities such as gardening, fitness classes and trivia nights Brookdale caters to a wide range of interests and needs.

Brookdale is all about community, and residents can always count on each other for a little pick-me-up. Take Patricia Clark and Rita Ldesrosiers, for example. Together, they run the Market Place at their Brookdale community, a one-stop-shop for any small household things fellow residents may need.

“We’re all like family,” Clark shares. “And family is important, so we try to take care of one another as best we can.”

That includes serving up free coffee and fresh cookies with a side of friendly conversation. Both women agree that being able to provide this service makes them happy and gives them a sense of purpose.

“We enjoy it,” Clark says. “That’s why we’re here, because we enjoy what we do. We go above and beyond, and we’re happy with what we do.”
