Brookdale Henderson

Our Community

With its family-friendly atmosphere, Brookdale Henderson feels like home the moment you walk through the doors. Our common areas include two spacious living rooms with fireplaces, a beautiful, serene aquarium, grand piano, and large-screen TV; lovely dining room; library; barber/beauty shop; and activity room. The assisted living community also has two atriums – one on each side of the building – with lovely skylights, tables and chairs perfect for visiting with family and friends, putting jigsaw puzzles together or playing a game of cards or dominoes.

Brookdale Henderson offers a total of 57 senior apartments, all with spacious floor plans. Our assisted living apartments include a refrigerator, microwave, full bath with walk-in handicapped-accessible shower, wall-to-wall carpeting and large windows with blinds. Some of our apartments have French doors that open onto a patio. All utilities except telephone are included. In addition, each senior apartment is individually climate-controlled and pets up to 25 pounds are welcome at our community.

Our Memory Care Neighborhood offers 17 apartments set up just like our assisted living community, with the exception of the kitchenette. We do offer the option of a Friendship Suite, in which two residents share accommodations; however, that decision is completely up to the resident and their families. The spacious living room provides natural sunlight from the skylight and includes a fireplace and piano which makes it the perfect setting for some of our activities, socials, and entertainment. Our beautiful secured courtyard and two large patios enable residents to easily enjoy many outdoor activities as well.

Optimum Life

Brookdale’s unique Optimum Life approach to resident activities balances six key dimensions of wellness – purposeful, emotional, physical, social, spiritual and intellectual. Intended as a journey of self-examination and discovery, it includes services, features and benefits that allow each resident to reach these goals, regardless of real or perceived limitations.

Our Staff

“Our family” will soon be “your family” as together we care for those we love. Brookdale Henderson takes tremendous pride in the longevity and tenure of its staff. Our community is fortunate to have many tenured staff members, with us for many years, who are committed to making the difference for the seniors we serve. At Brookdale Senior Living, our staff truly lives our promise, “Our Family Is Committed To Yours.”

Strong, Caring Professional Relationships

Brookdale Henderson is dedicated to maintaining professional relationships with nearby physicians, as well as hospice agencies, home health agencies and inpatient/outpatient rehabilitation services. When residents require physical, occupational or speech therapy, we will provide referrals, but of course, it’s always up to the resident and family to decide with whom they’d like to work.

Therapists can provide services right on site, in the convenience of the resident’s home. When any third-party caregiver comes into our community, their visit is recorded in the resident’s chart, so that our nursing staff is always kept up to date on their resident’s status. These relationships allow for aging in place and often prevent the need to relocate to a nursing home which allows you and your loved one to remain in a familiar home-like environment.

Levels of Care

Brookdale Henderson offers our residents options in assisted living and memory care.  We truly value you as an individual and our associates are dedicated to providing tailored levels of care to meet all of your or your loved ones needs.

Assisted Living

Brookdale assisted living communities support residents with daily living activities and amenities, such as housekeeping services, transportation and recreational activities. Trained caregivers provide services such as help with medication, bathing and dressing and coordinating services with outside providers.

Our individualized care plans provide an ideal blend of convenience and support with respect for individual preferences. We take the time to listen to our residents, so we can understand their needs. Then we establish clinical, dining and program support that works for them in a meaningful way.

We partner with our residents, recognizing their individual needs and preferences, and adjust services to meet their changing needs.   So whether it’s a unique snack, the celebration of a favorite season or a lifelong interest, we value the privilege of knowing our residents and building relationships with them to create a truly personalized living experience.

We provide care that balances independence with assistance and delivers service with compassion, understanding and respect. With comfortable accommodations and an impressive line of features and amenities, Brookdale residents enjoy life with the confidence of knowing we are here, partnering with you and your family, to customize solutions that support our residents’ needs as they evolve.

Memory Care

We understand your concerns for your loved one’s safety and well-being, and we understand the weight of the responsibility of caring for someone with Alzheimer’s or other types of dementia.  Let us help you and your loved one with our compassionate, specialized care.

Brookdale  Henderson offers programs and safe environments for those with Alzheimer’s disease or other types of dementia. We believe no matter where an individual is on life’s journey, each has the right to live in a dignified manner and to enjoy meaningful experiences every day.

Deeply rooted in a person-centered approach, our Alzheimer’s and dementia care program, also called the Clare Bridge program, focuses on sustaining feelings of belonging, purpose and safety while seeking to preserve a sense of self.  The Clare Bridge concept has evolved over the last 25 years through research and innovations in quality dementia care.  Our experienced teams have cared for thousands of individuals with dementia and their families.

The Clare Bridge Daily Path provides residents with a structured routine of activities that help maintain their abilities and encourage the use of their current skills.  The Daily Path includes programs such as discussion groups as a mental workout and daily physical exercise such as dancing.  The Daily Path gives each resident purpose and a sense of security that they are “right where they need to be.”

Designed by a team of culinary associates, experts in dementia care and registered dieticians, our unique dining program promotes a positive and successful dining experience with the following features:

• Dementia-friendly menus with selections that are easy to manage and familiar with dishes that promote balanced nutrition and well-being.
• Individualized dining assistance includes evaluating residents to determine the level of assistance needed to preserve their use of utensils as long as possible.
• The supportive dining environment encourages familiarity and socialization and offers personalized assistance during meals.
