Our Community
Brookdale Melbourne offers a beautiful Assisted Living and Alzheimer’s and dementia care community for seniors. Our loving family redefines life for residents, respecting their individuality, and allowing them to live life more meaningfully. We offer all of the amenities of home, without any of the responsibilities or work!
With a continuum of care, residents have the security of knowing they can remain here, in their home, without having to relocate and separate from their familiar surroundings and friendships, should their needs change over time. Our emphasis is on providing you with numerous services, while helping you maintain your independence and health.
A Wonderful Place to Call Home
Set on beautifully landscaped grounds with a courtyard and lovely gardens, Melbourne is considered one of the premier retirement communities. We are conveniently located in an urban area of town near a theater, Melbourne Square Mall, hotels, doctors, Erma Nixon Park, Holmes Regional Medical Center and many rehabilitation facilities, if ever needed.
Our property has many oak trees that are over 100 years old. They provide an abundance of shade and are beautiful to admire as you walk our landscaped courtyards. Brookdale makes a simple promise, to be compassionate and kind, understanding and respectful, and we become extended family to our residents and their families.
We offer three different styles of senior apartments, all on one level for easy access to our residents, with no worries of staircases, difficulty maneuvering around in an elevator or confusing floor plans.
Whether having a meal with friends in the dining room, relaxing with a good book in the library, kicking back in the TV room, gazing at the stars under the gazebo or strolling along the walking paths in the courtyard, we give our seniors and their loved ones the opportunity to get to know one another, and enjoy each other’s company.
An Active and Engaging Lifestyle
An array of social, educational and cultural programs encourages residents to rekindle their past interests and explore new ones with friends. We value and rely on their feedback to plan activities they enjoy. Residents are offered a variety of live entertainment and outdoor excursions, and have an active recreational calendar that includes outings, crafts, entertainment, games, cooking, trivia, shopping, movie night, friendly chatter club and much more.
Fine Dining
Substantial investments in our culinary program and staffing, allow us to provide mealtime experiences that set our communities apart from the competition. From Culinary Arts Training for chefs, to select seasonings and bakery options, Brookdale has created one of the industry’s leading dining services. Our fine dining experience is prepared by a trained chef and receives nutritional support and recommendations from a registered dietician.
Three restaurant-style meals are served each day in the group dining room and snacks are provided throughout the day. We continue to meet the nutritional needs of residents with dining choices that promote their health and well-being. Each meal offers a selection of delicious choices, sensational service and we always accommodate special restrictions and requests.
To help alleviate any confusion or added stress, we keep mealtimes very routine for our Memory Care community. Residents all sit together at the same time and same table each day. Meals are served on colorful plates and tablecloths so they can more easily distinguish their food. We also provide easy-to-eat snacks between meals, helping to ensure these residents get the nutrition and calorie count they need.
